Trump’s biggest mistakes BY FAR were some of his cabinet picks.

Barr was never going to find election fraud without looking for it. Investigations take time. I would have respected him had he been honest and not a b.s.er.

As they say, Barr’s book publicity tour has the misfortune of coinciding with the AG Audit results coming out.

That’s a shame.

Interesting timing on interview.
Here is bizarre website which describes where Mr. Barr should be and what he should be doing instead of giving interviews.

I've stated from the start of this mess, that people need to be put in Gitmo for treason. Those guilty of conspiracy with foreign governments engaged in biological warfare to rig the elections are guilty of treason. The death penalty is the statutory punishment for treason upon conviction.

Not arguing your point.

One of the extremely strange items in this “hopium” website is that while it makes a statement that it is a satire website, the names of many persons of high rank serving currently in the US Armed Forces are used.

And apparently the flight traffic to and from Gitmo has increased considerably in the last six months and is continuing to do so.

Then charge them with treason, try them in U.S. federal court, and convict them. Summarily rounding them up and shipping them to Gitmo is unconstitutional.

Outside of Flynn and Pompeo just who was any good? He whiffed on the Supreme Court too. He must have been successful picking people before being President, why did he not continue to trust his judgment ?

Not if habeas corpus is suspended. Lincoln did it and he is on Mt. Rushmore, the $5 bill and the penny. No one has a constitutional right to be tried in a U.S. District Court. The conspirators hung for assassinating Lincoln were convicted by a military commission without a jury. Strike out a common law jury, and there is no constitutional problem with military courts trying treason cases.

One possible end to the puppet Biden Regime is if the military refuses to follow his orders because he is illegitimate. That wouldn't need to start with the generals either. Imagine military personnel refusing to deploy to the Syria conflict for that reason? They would need to conduct too many court martials to keep Joe and the Ho in power.

Habeas corpus has not been suspended, and even if it is that does not strip citizens of their Constitutional rights.

No one has a constitutional right to be tried in a U.S. District Court. The conspirators hung for assassinating Lincoln were convicted by a military commission without a jury.

In 1866 the Supreme Court ruled in Ex Parte Milligan that citizens cannot be tried by a military tribunal if federal or state courts are operating openly and freely. So unless something did away with the 5th and 6th Amendments you do, in fact, have a Constitutional right to trial. Your military tribunals are unconstitutional, though you don't seem to be much interested in what is Constitutional and what is not.

Military Trials of Civilians (pg-448,449,450)

On June 29, 2006, in Hamdan v. Rumsfeld, the Supreme Court held that the Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF), passed by Congress in the wake of the September 11 terrorist attacks, impliedly authorized the President to create military commissions for enemy combatants “in appropriate circumstances” and subject to the limitations of Articles 21 and 36 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ).13

Although the Court in Hamdan declined to make a specific ruling as to whether the President has the inherent Article II authority in the absence of action by Congress to convene law-of-war military commissions, the majority nonetheless stated that “authority [to establish military commissions,] if it exists, can derive only from the powers granted jointly to the President and Congress in time of war.”

14 The Hamdan majority recognized that the issue of military-commission trials raises “important questions about the balance of powers in our constitutional structure,”15 and Justice Kennedy in his concurring opinion cited “the risk that offenses will be defined, prosecuted, and adjudicated by [the Executive] without independent review.”

16 In addition to addressing the balance of power between Congress and the President, the Court in Hamdan reaffirmed that Congress’s power to create military tribunals, including military commissions, is subject to constitutional limitations.

17 The baseline constitutional limitation that governs this issue was drawn 140 years ago in the Supreme Court’s landmark decision Ex parte Milligan. 18 Milligan and its progeny established that the Constitution’s jury-trial guarantees prohibit the military trial of a detainee apprehended within the jurisdictional reach of operational Article III civilian courts unless, during wartime or other national emergency, the government convinces those same civilian courts that the detainee is not a civilian but an enemy combatant.
19 To show enemy combatant status, the government must prove that the prisoner is a member of, or acting under the command of, the enemy’s armed forces.

20 Hence, if the detainee is a civilian, that detainee-civilian is entitled to a trial by jury in a civilian court in the absence of a complete breakdown of the institutions of civil government rendering the civilian courts unable to function.21 On the other hand, a detainee found to be an enemy combatant is subject to military jurisdiction, including the trial of any alleged criminal offense by military tribunal.

22 This Article will demonstrate that a military commission convened in areas where Article III courts are open and functioning has no jurisdiction to try a detainee unless the civilian courts have determined that the detainee is properly classified as an enemy combatant and not as a civilian.” . . .”

Hamdan won his appeal, you are aware of that?

Hamdan was also an enemy national and an enemy combatant. The people Dr. Franklin is talking about trying by tribunal and sending to Gitmo are U.S. citizens. Doing what he wants is unconstitutional.
