A fringe website featured the purported names and addresses of the Fulton County grand jury that indicted Trump and 18 others for their efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
I looked at the indictment last night and noticed it included the names of the grand jurors. I dropped my head into my hands, knowing this was inevitable. I don't understand why the names weren't reacted.
“It’s becoming all too commonplace to see everyday citizens performing necessary functions for our democracy being targeted with violent threats by Trump-supporting extremists," Jones said. "The lack of political leadership on the right to denounce these threats — which serve to inspire real-world political violence— is shameful.”
And there’s also this:
Yesterday — after Trump posted on his social media website that authorities were going "after those that fought to find the RIGGERS!" — Advance Democracy noted that Trump supporters were "using the term ‘rigger’ in lieu of a racial slur" in posts online.
When someone quite obviously rejects both the electoral system and the legal system unless they work to his advantage, one must surely get the impression that this person simply has no interest in democracy at all.
Completely normal behavior for peaceful supporters of a law-abiding citizen. Who wouldn’t do some friendly doxxing to support their absolutely innocent leader.
I wonder in what ways this will impact the trial. Everyone on the jury knowing that they are supposed to be annoymous but the jury that was not was targeted.
Not that I want to see it, but time and time and time and time again these right wing fucks have proven that they can't be reasoned with, they can't be trusted and they have zero morals or plans to follow societal norms.... AND YET WE CONTINUE TO TREAT THEM LIKE INNOCENT PEOPLE.
We have been asking for shit like this to happen every time we give a J6th traitor a light sentence or every time Trump or one of his clown supporters tweets some fairly obvious call for violence and we do nothing.
When the fuck is the Left going to wake up and realize that we are at war?
The Right has seen this as a war for a long, long time now. They have been stockpiling weapons, creating closely tied groups and training militias. They are radicalizing the youth. They see this as a life-and-death situation where there will be victims and bloodshed.
What the fuck has the Left done? Written a few memes? A few snarky comments on Twitter? They have treated this as a joke or just business-as-usual when dealing with politics. We give the other side every chance to bully their way into a position of power by constantly compromising on things. And when it comes to punishments, the usual bleeding-heart stereotype comes into play and we give these traitors the lightest of sentences when instead they should be facing the same kind of corporal punishment that they would face in any other country for treason.
So who wants to place bets on when people involved in the trial start to get bumped off?
I would comfortably place a $10 bet that either one of these jurors, a prosecutor or a judge will get attacked or killed by a right wing cultist and/or one of Trump's or Bannon's hired goons by the 2024 election.
This is extra layers of stupid. Grand Jurors aren't made up of random jurors. These people have a job doing this. They are paid to make these decisions.
I mean, I don't expect a MAGA terrorist to know the difference, but if they really don't want a state to have the ability to prosecute crimes, I won't feel bad when they complain about that.
