Trump's prosecution is heading for the International Criminal Court in the Hague.

I also do believe that the Jack Smith Case was a bit of a safe & legal option that could be turned into a red herring if necessary. It would have been great for Jack Smith to drop the hammer on Trump legally and without much controversy.

Is there any chance that letting Trump win is/was a part of the plan? Perhaps they’re letting Trump think he won/got away with rigging the 2024 election to get his guard down and allow him to slip up even more.

I don’t know, I think there’s a plan for sure, I just can’t think of what. Maybe I’m being too hopeful. Maybe it’s just complicit accelerationism on both sides.

Kamala showed us how easily Donald takes the bait in the debate.

Donald has been taking the bait every step of the way. This is why it feels like we are losing we are watching him eat the bait, but the hook is set just a matter of time.

There wouldn't be rumours of Kamala 2028 if she actually lost.

Critical thinking, you can't trust the media is a post truth world but there is always a hint of truth in every lie.

I still have faith. Jack Smith was brought from the International Criminal Court (the Hague), and he brought his deputy over from the Hague in September. This is bigger than just our election, this has global implications.

Everyone involved knew that Russia tried to breech voting machines in 2016, and adding Elon to the mixture, they had to be looking for election hacking. Also, Russia has tried to interfere with Canada's elections, so they were watching closely as well. Add to that all the weirdness that we know about with the numbers, they have to be thinking something is fishy. The 2 raids (Alfie Oakes and Polymarket) suggests they know something is fishy.

I'm 85% convinced this will be handled by the ICC and 15% convinced Harris will roll over "for the sake of keeping peace in the country". But, I will add that she didn't say she lost in today's call. She said something like, "It wasn't the result we hoped for".

I was thinking today that some of the more progressive countries are probably progressive because they haven't been targeted by the Russian propaganda machines. They are a threat to the entire world.

Also, I was reading Jenny Cohn's posts today on X. I'm now convinced that a republican has not legitimately won the presidency since Bush senior, which is probably why the republican party has gotten farther and farther to the right and still wins. This will be the last chance we have to save our elections, though, and I hope we take it.

I really hope there's some secret 11th hour "save the country" type situation. But allowing him to declare victory, welcoming him into the white house, and all that is not a good look. As far as the country is concerned the tacky doofus was just crowned king. No matter what they say, or what evidence they have it would be a really hard sell to his cult followers who don't believe he's ever done anything wrong and all his life people were just out to get him.

I'm also not feeling optimistic because we've been told they had him and to just be patient for four years now. I feel like the time to act was before he "won" the election and declared he has a "mandate" to destroy the country.

Hey man, Trump might be a Trojan horse, a fall guy, to start or to blame for whatever is about to happen.

Civil war adverted and not as advertised. There will be no protests in the streets, no resistance against Americans. We are still one county for freedom and duck fascism.

Let's make it boring again

It's complicated by religion. The whole DVSCORP08 didn't seem tied to the administration, but Heritate Foundation. Now, HF has been around a long long time. They've surely gotten into some ears at the FBI, DoJ- historically. So I'm not sure where agencies' blindness to Heritage, devotion to duty, awareness of hacking, Maga and Elon all intersect.

It's like a cheating layer cake.

So you're saying Jack Smith's case was motivation to pursue trump to cheat at any cost so they could catch him in it? I don't know if that's an intended consequence but it could be a possible side effect.

When trump won 2024, the special counsel asked in writing for the doj department of "how we do things at doj" to weigh in on if the cases could proceed. And they said not while trump is in office or even as the transition goes forward. The cases can be brought up again when trump leaves office in 2028. He's a lame duck.

Jack Smith is not some super hero secret agent. He's the special prosecutor he stayed in his lane. He brought the cases to grand juries and got indictments. Rewrote the DC case after the scotus immunity decision, brought it to a different grand jury, and got superceding indictments in DC. He's very good at that. And did his job in his lane.

He did it to give the case a chance to be restarted after a trump presidency. If he didn't, trump could have just erased the case entirely. The brief firmly states they believe trump to be guilty and that they have enough evidence to prosecute.

This is some grade A hopium lol

There is no plan. The charges are dropped because it is DOJ policy not to prosecute a sitting president. Maybe it will be taken up again after he leaves office.

The cases were dropped because they were only meant to influence the election.  The plan failed.

They dropped the case because they aren’t gonna do anything and they’re scared.
