It doesn't take Perry Mason (or even that DA who always lost to Mason) to sort out all the new evidence on the Jan. 6 insurrection. There was a criminal conspiracy w/ Giuliani, Bannon, etc. It was led by Donald Trump

It's time for charges. My new column

You don’t need Perry Mason to find a Jan. 6 conspiracy, just the courage to pursue it.

Look, the truth is that you don’t have to be Perry Mason — or, heck, even Hamilton Burger, the hapless DA who lost every case save one to the best attorney in TV history — to see the outlines emerging for a criminal conspiracy indictment that would include Donald Trump’s lawyer Rudy Giuliani, political strategist Steve Bannon, memo author John Eastman, and the 45th president himself, along others, for attempting to subvert the functioning of U.S. government on January 6, 2021.

Much of the information that would inform this worse-than-Watergate criminal case has been hiding in plain sight for more than nine months. The presence of much of the inner circle at the Willard Hotel (a name, Willard, that I always associate with rats because of a 1971 movie ... heh) lived on the internets for months, then was confirmed by the new book by Bob Woodward and Robert Costa, and was finally blessed this weekend by a story in the Washington Post.

But that story is also the exclamation point on an increasingly clear picture of what the chaos of the Jan. 6 insurrection was all about. It was not a spontaneous riot, but the inevitable end point of a plot that began with lame-brained schemes to overturn President Biden’s election victory in the courts, or in the state certification process, or finally in Congress. The threat of violence that was realized in the seizure of the U.S. Capitol, which resulted in five deaths, was the scheme’s ultimate weapon — one which could have set the stage for an even more forceful coup if Trump had placed more diabolical allies in the Pentagon or Justice Department.

It’s hard not to see two discreet acts amounting to a criminal conspiracy directed by the sitting president of the United States. The first was a campaign to tamper with the legitimate 2020 election results, with Trump himself and other government officials abusing their power by lobbying to force officials like Georgia’s Republican secretary of state to change vote totals. The second act was Trump and his allies urging supporters to come to Washington on Jan. 6, with key players like longtime sidekick Roger Stone (pardoned by Trump days earlier) working with the violent Proud Boys and Bannon vowing that “all hell is going to break loose.”

2. Hire Doug Jones

He convicted the KKK one time and he can do it again. Garland is afraid of the Republican Trump party.He needs to be on the SC,not AG. Sorry, but I thought Doug Jones was a better fit.
