    This seems bad.

    This seems reeeeeeal bad.

    Just in case there are any questions about whether they knew what they were doing:

    - the first image is the Acting Attorney General (Jeffrey Clark) shrugging when a White House lawyer told him what they were doing is illegal, and suggesting that they can simply invoke the Insurrection Act when violence breaks out.
    - the second image is Trump's attorney, John Eastman, stating that a bit of violence would be a good thing in service of their cause.

    Combining the two, it's very clear that they wanted this to escalate to bloodshed so that they could not only illegally seize power, but declare martial law to retain it. And for some reason they wrote that they were doing so in ****ing emails.


    (there's a 99% chance the Senior Advisor trying to stop them from doing this is former Trump Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, as well).

    After 10 months. 3 in jail, 7 at home.
    After 15million euro of asset seizures.
    After an indictment based on nothing.

    The file was finally passed to a Judge who has ruled it “weak and circumstantial”.

    Andrew Tate freed.

    Wonder if they can sue the media and the Romanian justice system for this? Seems like an exceptionally long time to be prosecuted for without any evidence.

    He hasn't been freed - he still has to report to police when asked and is restricted to Bucharest and the Ilfov district. He's still facing a trial.

    Shhh... Os knows this! He is the best reader and most informed person on the board and never, ever jumps in without understanding something fully.

    This is what happens when you only read from one side. For example, in this case the first half of Os’s post is lifted directly (without reference) from a tweet by Tate himself. Why Os wouldn’t just repost it / wouldn’t mention where the words come from I can only but speculate. But this isn’t the first time

    Also facing civil charges by four women in the UK. This statement from the forth woman to join proceedings.
    “Initially, he was very kind and charming and I ended up going home with him,” the woman said. “While having sex, he began to choke me and choked me so hard that I lost consciousness. I thought I was going to die. When I woke up, he was continuing to rape me. It is difficult to say that because it is so upsetting, but that is what it was.”

    Donald Trump a longtime vocal critic (and fulltime ****) of the USA team, specifically Megan Rapinoe, a blue-haired talisman and outspoken LGBTQ+ advocate who missed a crucial penalty during the final moments of the game, said that the team’s loss is “fully emblematic of what is happening to our great Nation under Crooked Joe Biden” and “WOKE EQUALS FAILURE. Nice shot, Megan, the U.S. is going to Hell!!! MAGA.”
