After ex-comedian Rosie O’Donnell’s meltdown on Twitter before the Senate’s big tax vote Tuesday night, President Donald Trump can reasonably direct federal authorities to lock her up
Even after another Twitter user, Louise Mensch, replied that O’Donnell was irresponsibly advocating bribery, O’Donnell doubled down.
Federal law addresses O’Donnell’s actions.
18 U.S. Code § 201 criminalizes the attempted bribery of federal officials by whoever “directly or indirectly, corruptly gives, offers or promises anything of value to any public official … with intent to influence any official act.”
The penalty? For Rosie, she could spend up to 15 years in jail

Have we no So?????
It’s a good thing President Trump really likes Rosie, because if they weren’t BFFs, he might suggest that charges actually be pressed.
Oh. Hang on. I think Rosie might actually be in serious trouble.
Hope so.
Could, but won’t.
Unfortunately.
I assume she meant “soul”...but the last 2 letters were dropped
The celebrities and elites of this country think they can get away with anything. It should stop. They should all be locked in a room for 5 straight days and force fed every episode of Touched by an Angel. That should straighten them out.
Have we no soup?
Gave we no soap?
Have we no soda?
....
Celebrities are above the law in this country, I guess.
The DOJ won’t prosecute her, but they should.
May I suggest “Touched by an Executive Producer”?
No she won’t.
She’s a rich member of the liberal elite.
She can do anything she wants.
Laws are for the little people.
Rich political activists openly running around offering bribes in spite of the fact that they are being explicitly told that this is illegal — and they just ignore it and keep doing it.
If you don’t stop this sort of thing, what do you stop?
A. Covfefe ("Lock her up!")
I would wager “soap”. Rosie has no soap.
Think of all the celebrities, professors, and politicians who have openly threatened President Trump and family. How many of them have been arrested and charged? Think of what would have happened if Obama was similarly threatened as Trump has been.
I think the republicans should vote on a bill to not kill Americans, 300 house members = 600 million dollars.
Unedited access to millions of readers and Hollywood egos is as dangerous a combination as drinking and driving. Friends don’t let friends Tweet while full of themselves.
All our SO are belong to us.
Socialism?
