The best way to fight Trump and his Cult, with their lies, propaganda, and crimes...

...is with the law.

Not with investigations alone, but with charges and indictments and convictions.

But it has to be done in a more aggressive manner.

It is understandable that people want to make sure they can get a conviction before they indict Donald Trump, but that is not the case with all his associates who have carried his water and lied for him and covered up his crimes.

In my opinion, the Georgia trial should start soon and some of these people should be charged with election fraud. Just because it didn't work does not mean they are not guilty. They tried very hard.

The "fake electors" should have to answer for their attempt to defraud the voters. They should have to explain it in front of a jury.

The point is that you cannot leave these people alone with their devices of lies and deceit. They must be challenged. The best weapon that the people have against this enemy of democracy is the rule of law. But it has to be used and much more aggressively.

In my opinion, Trump's lawyers should have to explain why they lied for him and covered up his crimes against our nation.

Including the theft and sale of classified documents to our enemies.

Looks more and more like Jared was his bag/money man, looking for deals.
And someone like Mike Flynn was a middleman.

And we have little confidence Trump will face any legal consequences.

His threats to burn it all down, including attacking FBI agents who are investigating him, go unchecked.
