The Left's “pattern” of disenfranchising “just conservatives” and the blatant organized activity from the Left is mindful of organized crime activity.
Time to roll out RICO statute, federal law that provides criminal penalties and a civil cause of action for acts performed as part of an ongoing criminal organization. Beginning in 1972, 33 states adopted state RICO laws to be able to prosecute similar conduct. (NOTE: RICO was used successfully in GA to prosecute teachers).
=================================================
The meaning of racketeering is at 18 U.S.C. § 1961. As currently amended, it includes:
<><> acts of bribery, theft, embezzlement, fraud, obstruction of justice, racketeering, money laundering, offenses covered under Title 18 Criminal Code;
<><> Embezzlement of union funds;
<><>Bankruptcy fraud or securities fraud;
<><>Criminal copyright infringement;
<><>Money laundering and related offenses;
<><>Bringing in, aiding or assisting aliens in illegally entering the country (if the action was for financial gain);
==========================================
Pattern of racketeering activity requires at least two acts of racketeering activity. The USSC has instructed federal courts to follow the continuity-plus-relationship test WRT an established pattern.
Illegal acts comprising a pattern are called "predicate" offenses. Predicate acts are related if they "have the same or similar purposes, results, participants, victims, or methods of commission, or otherwise interrelated and are not isolated events."
Continuity, referring to either a closed period of conduct, or to past conduct that by its nature projects into the future with a threat of repetition.
Which predicate offenses that fit into that list do you believe have been committed in order to trigger the RICO act?
Hint: the Fed Court will not interpret that which is stated in statutory plain language.
