Georgia grand jury hands up 10 indictments in Trump 2020 election investigation
New York Post ^ | August 14, 2024 | Samuel Chamberlain

Posted on 08/14/2023 6:21:39 PM PDT by Reno89519

The Georgia grand jury investigating former President Donald Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election results in the Peach State handed up 10 indictments Monday night.

After approximately 10 hours of hearing testimony and voting on potential charges, the bill was presented to Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney, who signed off on the charges shortly before 9 p.m.

Hours earlier, the court clerk’s office appeared to prematurely post the potential charges Trump was facing in the case.

The prematurely posted docket included 13 counts against the 77-year-old former president, including violation of the Peach State’s anti-racketeering law, conspiracy, false statements and asking a public official to violate their oath of office.

It was unclear when the actual indictment would be unsealed by the clerk’s office, nor was it immediately known whether Trump or his key allies like former Mayor Rudy Giuliani would be charged in the case.

You need the feedback, n00b.

BTW, I respect what she has been saying. She’s got a level head on her shoulders.

Buy a clue, n00b.

Correct, none were deleted but the charge alleges that Trump tried and was stumped by his bad hiring choices who couldn’t figure out how to do it, or who to do it. Sad, not even as competent as Hillary when it came to deletions. There’s a joke in there. Anyway, I do wonder what the truth of that charge is, since Trump at the time bragged publicly about the video recordings, and at the time I was hoping and even commented on FR that he should release them.

"Per US Constitution, Trump can run from prison, and if elected give himself full pardon."

These are state charges, not federal. The president cannot pardon someone from state charges.

Um no. This all started when Clinton was not convinced in the Senate. The law is an all or nothing proposition.

Give it a break. We are all, well most of us, hear to object to the indictments. And please drop the “Meatball groupie” it is insulting and has no place on FR. Otherwise, everyone will be insulting everyone and that too has no place on FR. Maybe try focusing on the persecution of Trump, which is the topic of the moment anyway.

Not true. Presidents have pardoned lots of people in the past convicted in state courts.

Yeah, it’s not like any of you have the grace or the brains to keep your trap shut while our president is being attacked, again.

They’re political surrender monkeys, that are completely unreliable when it comes to political warfare. Their pettiness and and vanity makes them weak partners moving forward.

The American republic is dead.

The organic Constitutional Republic is just fine.

It's the corporate UNITED STATES INC that is in bankruptcy and defunct.

Groupie is a common noun, it just means you are a ardent fan.
Meatball is not a 4-letter word. It is a nick name frequently used for DeSantis.

For now I defend Trump 100%, while still being neutral at this point with regards to 2024. A lot can happen between now and then, so there’s no need for me to choose now.

As far as what goes on between Trump and DeSantis, it’s typical polititcal BS that comes with every election. It’s just the nature of the beast.

I’m not a n00b. And I used to think you were a serious poster. I recently realize I was mistaken.

I have never hear or read that “nickname” except on FR where it is used with degrogatory intent. Why can’t we leave it as Trump Supporters, DeSantis supporters and remain polite as we are a shared community of mostly conservatives, patriots, many veterans, all Americans? Besides, end of day, we’ll all be rallying around the eventual Republican nominee in about one year. One year!

Anti Trump Republicans are enjoying the Trump persecution, it gives them validation for their obnoxious political behavior over the last 7 or 8 years.
