Aren’t there laws against colluding to throw an election?

And if so, they should be punished. I wish we could affect the liberal media in some way. They think they are too big to fail. Also freedom of the press, etc. No ethics, just freedoms.

No laws that I can think of but the penalty (at least theoretically) is exposure and consequent angry reaction by an aroused populace. (That would be us.)

Yes, but those are only for peasants.

And it's not like this was a felony Conspiracy, also, which would be covered by more than several serious federal statutes.

Oh, wait - it WAS a violation of federal Conspiracy laws.

Well, maybe there was no "intent". Yeah, that's it! THAT'S the ticket!
