Meme? What was that word ?
Surreal. Actual fraud is given a wink and a nod while shi* posting on the web is a crime.

A Florida man was arrested this morning on charges of conspiring with others in advance of the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election to use various social media platforms to disseminate misinformation designed to deprive individuals of their constitutional right to vote.
Douglass Mackey, aka Ricky Vaughn, 31, of West Palm Beach, was charged by criminal complaint in the Eastern District of New York. He was taken into custody this morning in West Palm Beach and made his initial appearance before U.S. Magistrate Judge Bruce E. Reinhart of the Southern District of Florida.
“According to the allegations in the complaint, the defendant exploited a social media platform to infringe one the of most basic and sacred rights guaranteed by the Constitution: the right to vote,” said Nicholas L. McQuaid, Acting Assistant Attorney General of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division. “This complaint underscores the department’s commitment to investigating and prosecuting those who would undermine citizens’ voting rights.”
“There is no place in public discourse for lies and misinformation to defraud citizens of their right to vote,” said Seth D. DuCharme, Acting U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of New York. “With Mackey’s arrest, we serve notice that those who would subvert the democratic process in this manner cannot rely on the cloak of Internet anonymity to evade responsibility for their crimes. They will be investigated, caught and prosecuted to the full extent of the law.”

Douglass Mackey, aka Ricky Vaughn May not be convinced by the federal prosecutor but there is a good chance his will be bankrupted.
Their goal is not to convict but to destroy.
And they use your tax dollars.

Twitter most likely turned this guy in as well.
PLEASE EVERYONE..DROP TWITTER.
right? what of all the LIES that were Russian collusion, but then again the FBI was in on that by lying to a judge to get a warrant to spy on the Trump campaign.
Unbelievable.
I am not sure. I vaguely remember some Democratic youth doing something similar and being proud of it. Can somebody refresh my memory?
Mackey was arrested for telling a lie? What about politicians? They don’t risk arrest for all their lies?
Of course. Who do you think is running the "Biden administration"? Aneurysm Joe the dotard? Nope, it's the crowd at Barry's DC crib.
Heheheh. This is a federal case too. DC is NY on steroids.
Meanwhile Comedy Central’s Trevor Noah show “The Daily Show” employees new york based “political correspondent” Dulce Sloan.
This disgusting critter grew up in Atlanta and is still registered to vote even though she has lived for 4 years in NYC.
You must be a PERMANENT resident to vote in GA (of course active Military is excepted)
She has posted on her instagram about her absentee voting in georgia going back to 2018.
She’s registered in stone mountain where she owns a cheap little vacation cabin that she rents to family. She lives full time in astoria queens. Clever.
GA SOS’s office was alerted to her fraud numerous times in November 2020.
Crickets.
So much dumb and easy to find fraud by people using LIVING eledrly for their votes (see MI)
Mentally handicapped in group homes (see TX and PA)
And in addition to dulce, so many other people from atlanta
continue to vote after movign out of state.
But go after memes from 2016? Wow, just wow.
Meme? What was that word ?
Surreal. Actual fraud is given a wink and a nod while shi* posting on the web is a crime.
I guess you are happy with the election results. Good for you. I don’t know why you are cool with it.
And how on earth did you "guess" that, just because I think this particular prosecution is a total sham?
I'm "guessing" that you think Biden's DOJ should go after all Trump's supporters with absurd charges.
Doj/fbi had legions of leftists just chomping at the bit for Trump to be gone...
So they could flip the switch and roll out the revenge prosecutions.
This will get tossed. No one was completed to visit this dudes site, and people could do their own research to disprove this guy’s comments...
But remember the leftists use process as punishment...
I think you meant "compelled." Spell checker?
Absolutely true, and they want us to be disarmed.
Yes. Anyone dumb enough to have taken that joke seriously shouldn't be voting.
If you are good with this guy being arrested then FR is no place for you.
Auto correct... usually makes things... incorrect.
I think you are correct about that.
More “Biden” EOs are on the way as soon as they translate them from Chinese....
From 2016 election campaign activity? Gosh, what about voter intimidation in Philadelphia? That was foot-dragged by GWB’s regime, and dropped as soon as Zero entered office.
Not to mention 2016 election interference from the FBI and 2020 election cheating.
