Former President Donald Trump pleaded not guilty Thursday to federal charges of attempting to subvert the will of voters and remain in power after his 2020 election loss — a case poised to change America’s legal and political landscape for decades to come.
Appearing in the E. Barrett Prettyman U.S. Courthouse just blocks from the U.S. Capitol, Mr. Trump said he didn’t break the law. A pro-Trump mob stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, moments after a rally where Mr. Trump claimed he won the election.
“Not guilty,” Mr. Trump told U.S. Magistrate Judge Moxila Upadhyaya as he stood by the defendant’s desk. His attorney, John Lauro, who was standing in front of the judge, nodded in agreement.
After his court appearance, Mr. Trump called the federal charges against him a political “persecution.”
“It’s a sad day for America,” Mr. Trump said in brief remarks on the tarmac at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, where his Boeing 757 was waiting to spirit him away from Washington.
Mr. Trump, 77, called the indictment, his third in four months, “a persecution of a political opponent [and] the persecution of the person that’s leading by very, very substantial numbers in the Republican primary and leading Biden by a lot.”

Then-Speaker Pelosi helped fuel the “Jan 6 as an insurrection” narrative — even before Jan. 6 had occurred — by declaring that the Republicans supporting 2020 election challenges were “subverting the Constitution by their reckless and fruitless assault on our democracy which threatens to seriously erode public trust in our most sacred democratic institutions, and to set back our progress on the urgent challenges ahead.”
So......If contending that a presidential election was stolen is illegal for Trump,
<><>where is Al Gore’s indictment?
<><>No Democrats have ever been charged for claiming that Bush was elected by hanging chads,
<><>for challenging his election both times in Congress.
No indictments for spreading lies and launching investigations
for false claims that Trump had been elected by the Russians.
Even as they themselves tarred Trump in order to
“create an intense national atmosphere of mistrust and anger.”
Judge/Magistrate “Moxila Upadhyaya”? I would be VERY surprised if he/she is not a flaming leftist.
No one in their right mind should be called that, much less be a judge. Sorry if I offended any “Moxilas.”
Okay ...
Americans’ Demands For Secure Elections Do Not Constitute ‘Insurrection’

To corrupt media, Democrats, and Big Tech, anyone who protested the 2020 election is no different than those who stormed the U.S. Capitol Jan 6.
On the one-year anniversary of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, the corporate media worked overtime to convince the American public that Republicans as a whole stormed the nation’s beacon of democracy at the beginning of 2021 and have waged a war on all that is good and decent.
While lunatics and fools did invade the Capitol January 6, tens of thousands of Americans peacefully assembled to demand answers from the government about what they believed to be the sloppiest election in which they’ve ever voted.
Political violence should always be condemned, but a majority of the people present in Washington, D.C., and on the Capitol grounds on Jan. 6 weren’t violent.
Yes, hundreds of people stormed the U.S. Capitol in a riot, .......
.......but tens of thousands of people of all ages, races, backgrounds, and lifestyles gathered together that day at the “Save America Rally” to protest the Democrats’ sleazy election manipulation and to hear from President Donald Trump.

“Judge Moxila Upadhyaya”
Who says it’s America?!
Just kinda screams it, doesn't it?
There used to be a wwweb browser with that name ...
I don't know anymore.
We already did let this happen. We saw what happened and let them get away with it. We allowed them to intimidate us and so many others who should have done their duty to stop the fraud of the 2020 election and we have been allowing them to use the very same intimidation tactics for the last three years now. “Don’t believe your lying eyes or your ears or the video clips or the articles or the witnesses.” They have all been swept away into the dustbin where truth dies.
I don’t HTML but the two vote count graphs from the morning of November 4, 2020 in this link below only briefly got any attention back then. They are NOT NATURAL.
These graphs are hard to find now. You have to use duckduckgo or something like that to ever find them. Other search engines have destroyed the links.
Things like this are not natural, not real, only contrived and they never stand up to investigation. Plotting data and seeing sore thumbs like this is how you find problems of fraud, typos, miscalculation, failures and all other things that are WRONG. They never happen and nobody of authority or credibility has ever investigated or explained this glaring evidence of fraud. THEY SURE AS HELL DON’T HAPPEN TWICE IN TWO DIFFERENT STATES AND ONLY MINUTES APART IN TIME. These graphs here are from CBS and that shows just how bold and uncaring of the law and honesty any of them are. They manufactured enough votes to win out of thin air. Anybody that does not know that or admit it is a right statement is either a fool or a criminal.
It is obvious that this was a coordinated effort. They even cut off the Republican vote count when the fix was in. They were so confident of their fraud they quit trying to hide it and got sloppy and knew it would not matter. They have been laughing at how stupid and weak we are ever since.
Threads like this were hot all across American on November 4 and they have all been buried now, expunged from memory. Trump is 100% right of course, the election was stolen.
Some protested and called fowl but were shouted down.
We see the very same propaganda and tactics used against any opposition from covid deniers, climate deniers and stolen election claims. We see it in claims that the border is secure and that no aliens are invading, that the Afghanistan retreat was well handled, that the balloons were nothing to be concerned about, that hunters computer is nothing, there is no corruption, the cocaine just can’t be figured out. The list is endless.
We are living a travesty. This gooberment is a lie, a fraud, a criminal imposter.
I don’t recognize my country anymore. The only thing that saves my sanity is I’m old and will be dead and buried soon enough. I know that’s a selfish thought. I do pray though for a Divine intervention and retribution.

Is that an Indian-based web browser?
May God destroy Donald Trump’s enemies.
A very sad day for America.
“.......but tens of thousands of people of all ages, races, backgrounds, and lifestyles gathered together that day...”
And there was only one MURDER that day, it was a black government employee who murdered an unarmed white woman. The whole incident was washed away with the compliance of the GOPe. And that government murderer is back on the job collecting all the bennies he can get from us taxpayers, that was the real tragedy of Jan. 6th.

Heard Mark Levin tonight saying the Trumps legal team needs to immediately take this to the USSC asking them to intervene so he can run for office. He said it’s the only way that Trump doesn’t get bogged down by lawsuits rendering him too crippled to run
He Saud that poll numbers may be high now but that these cases will cost him time and money but mostly will dirty him up so people will end up not voting for him.
