The "it was only a speach" defense seems to be off the table.

Granted the logic is a bit if reverse engineering, but knowing much of the evidence, seems to be logical.



"As we heard the reporting, it sounds like some of the charges are ones we have been talking about for a long time like obstruction of official proceedings, and a conspiracy to defraud the united states," she explained. "The new one we are hearing is a very big one. It is inciting insurrection."

"This is a crime that is not charged and that is because of the strong First Amendment defenses that anyone would have against it," she continued. "And you know,
there is nothing illegal about giving a fiery speech, but, if the committee is to recommend charges for inciting insurrection, it will be because they believe that Donald Trump crossed the legal line with the Supreme Court said in a case called Brandenburg vs. Ohio."

"It says that the government cannot criminalize speech unless it qualifies under this very, very high standards," she added. "That is, it is designed for the purpose of just inciting imminent, lawless action, and likely to have that effect. So, recommending that charge would mean that it is their finding."

They will be using Brandenburg vs. Ohio as their justification for the charge. I haven't read it, probably wouldn't understand it, but according to the article, that case sets a precedence where the charge doesn't bring in any possible threat to the 1st amendment. Or something like that. Here is the case;

Decision

The U.S. Supreme Court reversed Brandenburg's conviction, holding that government cannot constitutionally punish abstract advocacy of force or law violation. The majority opinion was per curiam, issued from the Court as an institution, rather than as authored and signed by an individual justice. The earlier draft had originally been prepared by Justice Abe Fortas before he was forced to resign in the midst of an ethics scandal, and it would have included a modified version of the clear and present danger test. In finalizing the draft, Justice Brennan eliminated all references to it by substituting the "imminent lawless action" language.[13] Justices Black and Douglas concurred separately.

Earlier I sipped some bourbon, smoked a cigar and watched some football with the boys after posting on a hooker board.

You won your day.

I won mine.

Of course his selling might be tied to when he pays legal fees. That is if he pays his fees and the assumption that he know what he's doing. Both a stretch I guess.

I'm not sure what's worse. The people who continually post about how Trump is the worst human being ever on the planet or the people who continually defend him.

Either way, I'm ready to move on. I'm sure the next Republican nominee will be "worse than Trump". Yawn.
