    Scott Hall is the guy who has already plead guilty. Now that he has been joined by Sidney Powell it would not surprise me to see other defendants plead guilty.

    That conspiracy theory about Biden has already been thoroughly debunked over and over.

    Oh don’t worry. We will make sure to indict them in massively republicans Districts so we can essentially guarantee a conviction.

    Not in a deep red jurisdiction it hasn’t lol

    Especially when we get them in front of a highly conservative judge who donates to the Republican Party. But don’t worry. I’m sure he won’t be partisan.

    I admire your honesty in admitting you want Republicans to corruptly convict their perceived political enemies.

    Doesn't matter. "Rinse and repeat" seems to be the essence of juris prudence for rednecks.....

    The facts are the facts no matter the political persuasion of the people in the jurisdiction.

    Really? Then why do trial venues routinely get moved sue to bias against the defendant?

    The fact that venues are sometimes changed has no bearing on whether the facts do.

    Don’t be obtuse. It’s much easier to convince someone who despises Donald trump that he’s committed a crime than someone who loves him.

    While I am glad y’all have now moved to openly admitting you will openly abuse the processes you believe are being abused (with no evidence) but you are really going to hate demographics shifts.

    The most reliable Republican voters are the silent generation, boomers and evangelicals — those three are rapidly being… phased out… and replaced with much more moderate voters.

    The largest voting group is about to be millennials.

    It’s much easier to convince a rational person that he has committed a crime than someone that loves him.

    People should not love public servants — there is the first word that should show there is an issue in your point.

    ROFLMAO!!! Do you really think she would plead guilty if the laws she violated were non-existent? Seriously?

    I'm not sure why you are having difficulty comprehending the as yet unchallenged assertion that the facts do not change.

    It's amazing the clarity with which one thinks when their freedom is on the line. Apparently, she has forgotten all about her belief that the election machine software had been corrupted, which I am sure she was trying to prove when she and others came up with the plan to break into the voting machines.

    Wow. Amazing. Another who believes that Willis doesn't have the evidence to back up the charges.

    Powell was looking at jail time, probably at least one year. That's why people cop a plea, not because the prosecution is desperate, but because the defendant is desperate to stay out of prison.

    If she were a Democrat, I'm confident that many here would be cheering the prosecution.

    Do you know the extent of charges against Powell? She pleaded guilty to six misdemeanors in order to avoid the RICO charges, which carry mandatory jail time. Probation and fines, plus probable loss of her law license, are obviously preferable.

    She isn't the first and won't be the last. It has taken years, but the rats are leaping off of the sinking ship that is Donald Trump. Would you be willing to go to prison on his behalf?

    Lol weird that’s what they said about the hippys in the 60’s. Yes the Republican Party is still winning elections. The old saying holds true.

    If you’re not a liberal when you’re young you have no heart, if you’re a liberal when you’re old you have no brain.

    If they subpoenaed her she would have to act as a witness anyway lol The only difference now is she doesn’t plead the fifth.

    Yeah or she took that offer that was provided to her so she didn’t have to take the risk and the prosecution offered it to avoid getting laughed out of court on RICO charges
