Thought For The Day - 4 August 2023

Ya wanna know some ting? One might wonder why is it that Mad Dictator Don's mouthpieces haven't been blaring that he can't be prosecuted? I suck up a lot of news, but have not seen any reporting of such blaring.

The reasoning, such as it is, goes like this: the Jan. 6 cases flow from conduct that happened while he was President, and for which he was impeached, and from which he skated. So, since the Constitution makes punishment of Presidents through impleachment, which has already done and dusted, why can he be prosecuted criminally for conduct he was acquitted of? I don't buy it, but it seems strange that Lauro would claim First Amendment coverage, when that claim is nonsense. Enquiring minds need to know.
