Wouldn't it be incredible if this is what finally took him down? You just know he's going to make some false statements to law enforcement.
Why would this be any different than the time he colluded with Russia on live TV, had a phone call recorded asking to change election results, intentionally retained national security documents after leaving office, rallying the mob that tried to stop the election results, or any of the other things we already have on record?
Fun tangential fact: Trump's collusion was found to be legally okay per the Mueller report because they had no evidence they directly coordinated with each other. This is very similar to how SuperPACS cannot directly coordinate with election campaigns but simply engage in obvious call-and-response as Trump did with Russia. Corrupt as fuck.
That is about as unfun a fact as I can think of.
Oh I dunno, Chicago has had a active serial rapist and murderer for 20 years with more than 50 victims and more than 50 deaths that no one really talks about.
Look, if you want to get people to talk about your crimes you need to do a better job of taunting the police. Whining about it on Lemmy isn't going to make it happen.
That's exactly how it happens. Literally the only places I've seen reporting on it is social media.
They were joking about you being a serial killer in Chicago and this being how you admit it.
I'm well aware, I just don't think it's particularly funny to joke about when there's a pretty high likelihood that someone is being chained raped and tortured before dying in an abandoned building while the Chicago police actively avoid investigation that would reveal the pattern.
Challenge accepted. Fun fact, your bones are wet.
Muller didn't even pretend to follow the money, I don't buy this.
Rosenstein instructed Mueller not to investigate Trump's financial dealings in Russia.
Different collusion. And they didn't say it was okay - just that they didn't have any evidence that Trump himself had been involved.
Then the report went on to say as clearly as the justice department is allowed to say that Trump absolutely engaged in obstruction of justice. They couldn't indict a sitting President, and you can't make a public accusation against someone you aren't going to indict.
Mueller said that if Trump were innocent of obstruction, he'd say he was, but that he would not say that. He laid out specific criteria for what constitutes obstruction, cited many specific occasions in which he met all those criteria, testified before Congress that if he weren't the sitting President he would have brought charges against him, and said directly that it was Congress's duty to impeach him.
But somehow the GOP convinced everyone that the Mueller report was an exonneration.
Also, the blowjob he gave Putin live in Helsinki.
It's hard to give a blowjob if you're dead, or not in the same location as the receiver.
You've never worked at a funeral home, I gather?
Nor am I a necrophiliac.
True, but considering the numerous other crimes he's committed haven't taken him down yet, I'm not so hopeful.
Plus, it would have to go through the courts. And if he gets elected, good luck with that.
Uff yes, imagine people find out that he lies. That would be epic.
You may not be aware of our two tiered justice system in the United States
How would that happen? It's obvious he was shot at. Others in the crowd got killed/injured as a result of the gunfire. This just seems like standard procedure.
Pray for the agent that has to parse his statement.
How would that [Trump going down for making some false statements to law enforcement] happen?
What follows is wild unfounded speculation that 99.9% didn't happen, but is technically a barely plausible hypothetical answer to your question.
If the ear injury wasn't caused by a bullet, then the miss wasn't as near as we thought it was.
If it missed by a lot despite being at [relatively] short range [for the type of gun used], then maybe it was on purpose.
If the shooter missed on purpose, maybe it was because he was hired by Trump for a false-flag operation in order to allow Trump to claim martyrdom, or even a casus belli to purge his enemies.
If this sort of absurd conspiracy were what actually happened, maybe Trump would lie to the FBI to try to cover it up, get caught, and get charged with more crimes.
The FBI agent tasked to transcribe the interview
Is this even news? Seems like a pretty standard thing in an investigation. Of course you interview the victim.
With the difference that the victim is apparently very enraged that they want to talk to him.
Donald cannot open his mouth without lying so he probably shouldn't do it towards a federal agent when it would be a crime. Not that he would ever be prosecuted since we have a multi-tiered "justice" system.
