The NYT and WaPo will deny that any of this happened. Ignore your lying eyes and ears.

BRAVE AI:

Interference with Commerce Crime

Yes, interfering with commercial trade can be a crime under federal law, specifically the Hobbs Act, codified at 18 U.S.C. § 1951. This law prohibits any person from obstructing, delaying, or affecting interstate or foreign commerce by robbery, extortion, or threats of violence.

The statute applies to actions that impact the movement of goods or commodities across state lines or internationally.

To secure a conviction, the prosecution must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant knowingly obtained property from another by means of robbery or extortion, and that this act affected commerce.

The Hobbs Act was originally enacted in 1946 to combat racketeering in labor-management disputes but is now frequently used in cases involving public corruption, commercial disputes, and other forms of extortion.

I remember at the time, they said Obamacare legislation as a massive package was just “pulled out of a drawer,” they had prepared it long beforehand. It seems that all this stuff was schemed out by think tanks over the years and ready to roll day 1 under Obama.

He is one of the worst things to ever happen to this nation. Think of all the deep-state corruption he fed, infiltrated our government with more muslims, divided our nation, etc. I could go on and on.

When he first got in office, he named a lot of his actions by crude abbreviations. I remember a couple being WTF, FO - and there were others but I can’t remember them. It was an obvious middle finger to America - around the time Michael walked up AF1 in dirty shorts and flip flops in an effort to demean and low class our country.

No doubt. Perhaps the first President in our history that hated America.

It was already pre written. It was called Hillary care.
Hillary tried to get this pushed through congress, but even the dimrats balked at it.

Yes.

I’m just thinking that Christians should immediately recognize these tactics as what we’ve been told the Anti-Christ would do. Not allowing people to buy and sell unless they accepted the Mark of the Beast (submitted to the demands of the politiical and religious beasts who unite to serve Satan).

An enemy foreign and/or domestic in the Oval Office for 8 years can do great harm

What do you think Valerie Jarrett did all day? She was the coordinator of this BS.

The confluence of coincidences that got it passed was stunning, with Ted Stephens going down , etc, etc. It was probably more apparent than real though as we have learned so much about uniparty in the meantime.

The whole administration was based on the lie he was a NB Citizen. It all flowed from that. In a perfect world, all those who promoted that fraud would be in the ocean wearing cement shoes.

“Don’t get caught doing it” is the motto in Chicago. Obama comes from Chicago.

The motto is not “Don’t do it”. No, just don’t get caught doing it.

Normally “Don’t get caught” is understood to mean “until the statue of limitations is relevant” or “until you retire and are relevant.”
