Breaking: Special Counsel Finds Mark Zuckerberg’s Election Money Violated Wisconsin Bribery Laws
The Federalist ^ | 3/1/22 | Margot Cleveland

Posted on 03/01/2022 9:39:48 AM PST by justlittleoleme

Nearly $9 million in Zuckerberg grant funds directed solely to five Democratic strongholds in Wisconsin violated the state’s election code’s prohibition on bribery. That conclusion represents but one of the many troubling findings detailed in the report submitted today by a state-appointed special counsel to the Wisconsin Assembly.

Last August, Wisconsin Assembly Speaker Robin Vos authorized the Office of Special Counsel, headed by retired state Supreme Court justice Michael Gableman, to investigate concerns about election integrity and the 2020 election. Gableman delivered an interim report to the state assembly on November 10, 2021. Earlier today, the special counsel provided a second interim report to the state legislative body, noting the report “is final in the sense that it provides a list of recommendations with time for the Legislature to act before the close of its session in March.”

We are a country with zero accountability.

Sad but that is the reality.

They appoint a commission and a special prosecutor, and they’ll have a recommendation report coming out in about 10 years.

Legislative findings mean nothing unless someone is willing to prosecute. Will Wisconsin’s AG prosecute this?

Yep, no accountability, no crime.

Oh no, we have great accountability.

If he had walked into the Capitol for 20 minutes along with a crowd, he’d be doing 3 years on felony “interference with government process” charges.

Priorities, ya know.

Money is an inanimate thing and cannot violate the law.

Zuckerberg broke the law, not his money.

Accountability for thee but not for me.

That’s how our system rolls.

What’s going to happen? Nuttin. Maybe a sternly worded email to one of Mark’s lawyers.
Maybe John Dunham should start one of his endless ‘investigations’ on this.

Jail would be nice. With his haircut Zuckerbergs dance card will be full every evening.

As with the federeal Congress, nothing will happen. A lot of talking and finger pointing for show, but nothing will happen. The AG is part of the law breaking and is hardly the office to prosecute. The Legislature would have to lead a class action law suite against the voting group, the AG and the governor and you know that ain’t going to happen — no backbone.

When the case was originally reported, they were saying wimpy things like...we don’t know whether it was illegal but it was unethical...it might be illegal...

WELL, WE FINALLY GOT THE ANSWER:

ZUCKERBERG’S BUCKS PAID IN WISCONSIN WERE...ILLEGAL.

HALLALULAH.

Let’s see, the guy who wore the buffalo hat on J6 and was convicted of trespassing got 41 months in prison, a few years of probation, not counting time served while awaiting “trial”.

I doubt that Zuckerberg will see an hour of jail time.
