Prosecuting her is exactly what she wants.
Even if the 1st Amendment defense doesn't work, she won't get jail time.
(understand that the government cannot simply make a law that abrogates fundamental rights. If it could it could simply pass a law stating the police can search your home without a warrant whenever they have probable cause to believe a crime is being committed. There is a legitimate 1st amendment defense to this statute.)
But she can paint herself as a SJW fighting the Fascists in the White House.
DON'T TAKE THE BAIT
I understand that Trump beat Madcow to the punch by voluntarily releasing the tax return yesterday afternoon. If true, then Madcow did not commit a felony because Trump released the tax return into the public domain.
If I were Trump I would very definitely have her prosecuted.
So what if she’s a carpet muncher.
Great leverage to negotiate with MSNBC. Fire her or else.
She should be in jail along with snoop dog.
Liberals always get away with everything.
Doubt anything will happen to this “man”.
She sure did, beyond a shadow of a doubt. Specifically illegal. If the government doesn’t go after her, then there is no rule of law.
I hope they just fine her. I do not want to endure the debates over the unanswerable question: whether Maddow belongs in a men’s or women’s prison.
I will register my complaint as a private citizen, citing the applicable law.
