This is literal dictator shit. Jesus Christ.

This is actually incredibly chilling.

NEW: President Trump moved Tuesday to punish a law firm for providing pro bono legal services to Jack Smith as he prepared to face a potential investigation from the Trump administration.

He is stripping security clearnces and govt funding from the firm. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

Yes, but did you see the price of eggs under Biden?

Jones Day and Kirkland Ellis stepping up in solidarity in 3,2,1, o who am I kidding...

It's part of a lifelong pattern and practice of intimidation and criminal acts by Drumpf.

Yep, typical mob boss stuff.

Punishing lawyers---and deterring others---for representing a client has gotta violate the 6A right to counsel, no?

truth-sandwich.com•2 hours ago

Exactly so. It's about intimidation as much as payback.

Has anyone asked Trump what he thinks of the quotation made by a 19th century British politician that "power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely"? Could he think of anyone it might apply to?

truth-sandwich.com•2 hours ago

Nah, he was corrupt before he gained political power.

There is literally nothing in Trump's history that doesn't say this was inevitable. He's a deeply damaged individual; in a healthy society he'd be treated; in the society he's creating, he'd be put down.

Every day I'm crying for what has become of our country. Yes, it's chilling. Devastating. This literal hunting of Smith who spent his life in public service, and also his law firm. The extortion of Ukraine. I cannot believe what we're living through.

The only thing that is equal to how chilling this is how predictable it was.

Using the full force and terror of the law purely for a vengeance and intimidation tool. Sending the message that everyone is his enemy and he will stab you forever if given the chance

Oh and we will remember. He’s not gonna live long enough to pay any serious price for any of this, sadly. But it’s all being noted and there WILL be reckoning. For the GOP writ large, I hope.

Where is the Fear the Government crowd?

Wheres Rand Paul? Is Susan Collins practically beige with anger?

Susan Collins is busy scheming with the Deep Ones. New England stuff.
