DEMOCRATS ARE LAW-LESS BECAUSE REPUBLICANS ARE BALL-LESS!!!
Screw the White Hut. After 6 years of trying to destroy President Trump and his family a little suffering is good for the souls in the White Hut.
What’s good for Trump is good for Biden.
Joe Pedo and his son both should be locked up right now.
Joe and company need to stall until the August 2024 DNC convention.
The rat commanders don’t want the public to pick their candidate. Joe must win the rigged primary then withdraw before the convention. He will be free to pardon himself and all of his family members for any crime committed past and future.
EC
Mike Johnson will respond with an appropriate Bible quotation.
And a comment that as a legal scholar and Constitutional expert...
They have No Standing.
The Battle of the Strong Letters. oooooo
But, but, what about the Democrat’s sacred mantra, “Nobody is above the law...”??
Well, SCREW WHITE HOUSE COUNCIL!!
How about that?
Have the entire family arrested for contempt.
His only resort is to pound the table
After the trials they need to keep the family members and administration officials in the same cell block so they can blame each other it’ll sound lie a chicken farm.
