Maybe after Ginni Thomas gets convicted, conservative blonde, white women all over this country

[Baitball Blogger]

are going to realize that their fair colorings do not lend them extra privilege in this country afterall. Maybe they'll learn to be empathetic and decent? Hope springs eternal.

2. Convicted for what, specifically?

What role did she play that is criminal? Has anyone else been indicted for it yet?

5. She was assisting in the planning of overturning a legitimately elected government

just like Trump, Meadows, Bannon and all the other traitors. What is not criminal in those actions?

[maxsolomon]

7. None of those people are being prosecuted for their actions.

Seditious Conspiracy? Is that the charge you expect? Only the Oath Keeper assholes have been charged with that, and I don't expect much more from Garland's DOJ.

I don't understand what she did that is specifically criminal, and no one calling for her head today on DU can explain it to me.

8. Based on what I've seen so far there isn't anything ...

… that could be called criminal in the emails to Meadows specifically. (And I confess I haven’t read all of them - I’ve naively just depended on the media to read us the worst of them). It’s unimaginably stupid and more than a little scary that someone that whacked out is so close to power, but her rantings about overturning the election are really just unhinged rantings.

9. I do expect Garland's DOJ is investigating and is using some of the Oath Keepers

and Proud Boys as stepping stones to the main conspirators and yes seditious conspiracy should be the charge.

11. Do you think the Jan 6 2017 attempt by 5 or so Democrats to challenge

Electoral votes for trump was criminal? Then VP, Biden, had to shut them down. For the record, I don’t think their actions were criminal.

Democratic Reps Raskin, McGovern, Jayapal, Lee, Waters, and others, challenged the count claiming trump did not win states like Wisconsin. Biden shut them down.

Now, if they have evidence G Thomas was involved in storming the Capitol, or even in the planning to do so, then she needs to be indicted. Unfortunately, have not seen any evidence of that other than all those claiming she was involved with nothing to back it up.

Don’t think we can save democracy, by taking undemocratic actions. Sorry.

[Bev54]

13. No and there was not a legitimate coup in the works either. There was here and

she was involved in the planning and inciting.

[Hoyt]

15. Then show some proof she was involved in planning/executing breach of Capitol.

You seem to have proof.

[Bev54]

18. It wasn't necessarily the breach of the capital but the overturning of the election

I am not here to argue legalese with you at all. I am saying from where I am sitting she is just as guilty as Meadows, Trump and Bannon and Powell. They are all in this together and I think with time and documents we may well find that her husband may well have been part as well.

[Hoyt]

19. Agree, She is unethical, immoral, and worse. That is not enough to charge

people criminally in our country. That’s a good thing, don’t you think?

Now if we find evidence she went beyond asking Meadows to “do what he can,” it’s a different story.

[PlanetBev]

3. She ain't never gonna be convicted

She’s got power and money and a corrupt political party behind her.

[RANDYWILDMAN]

4. She is guilty as sin

but won't be convicted of anything, white privilege for sure

[BlueTsunami2018]

6. We still seem to be operating under the assumption that anyone will be held accountable.

What makes you think she’ll be convicted of anything? None of them will be.

[lunatica]

10. It's enough for me if they learn

to just shut up and keep their thoughts private.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

12. lol

[Hortensis]

14. Seems racist a bit. And sexist and blondish to this white blonde woman.

Not clear how many decency points not being conservative salvages -- some I hope? Anything else? To my mind this is hitting at least 3 for 3 with a swinging shovel so far. Oh, yeah! I'm "privileged." 4 for 4 and I should forget the points. And for you for the comparison with Ginni Thomas, a message I can't post here.

[BlackSkimmer]

21. I'll ditto your message.

With an exclamation point.

[BlackSkimmer]

16. She's not going to be convicted of anything.

Nor will tfg.

[pandr32]

17. Most of them aren't actually blond.

[BlackSkimmer]

20. Well, it hasn't seemed to work as a deterrent for old, white, conservative men.

Or any men, for that matter.
