And so it begins --

Quote:An attorney for former President Trump suggested the so-called “fake electors” scheme qualifies as an “official act,” which would prevent it from being prosecuted under the recent Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity.

Trump attorney Will Scharf told CNN Monday night that some acts alleged in the former president’s federal election subversion indictment do constitute private conduct but the effort to put forth slates of alternate electors in 2020 from key battleground states is not one of them.

“We believe the assembly of those alternate slates of electors was an official act of the presidency,” Scharf said, noting the Supreme Court left that question for lower courts to decide.

They’re also asking that the verdict In the hush money case be set aside, because the prosecution used Trump’s official acts as evidence. The official acts in question are Trump’s social media posts about Michael Cohen.

Oy.

His insurrection prosecution is gutted. He will not be held accountable unless Biden orders him arrested.

Biden should arrest and imprison the six who asserted Presidential fiat, for undermining democracy as well as being criminally stupid.

‘Trump Derangement Syndrome’ is a term invented by Republican twatwaffles to describe people who would prefer not to live under an autocratic despot (these are the same people who co-opted the word ‘snowflake’ to sneer at people who have empathy).

And "woke" to refer to people who care for the less fortunate.
When people call me "woke", I thank them...right before I call them an asshat.

Something major needs to be done. It seems to me that this is a national security issue. The USA has long kept its external enemies at bay but we are now being dismantled internally. The nation is literally under attack and Biden has an obligation to act. He is the Commander in Chief and has now been given limitless official power.
