Trump and his lawyers have handed investigators what they need to charge them with 'seditious conspiracy': former prosecutor

Appearing on MSNBC early Sunday morning, former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner predicted that revelations about Donald Trump, attorney John Eastman and Justice Department official Jeffrey Clark have given House investigators all they need to charge the three with sedition -- and that more evidence is still to come.

Speaking with host Kendis Gibson, the attorney said written documents and recorded comments by three have built the case against them.

"You know Kendis, it is not that Vice President Pence did not have the courage or the spine to overthrow the election's result, it is that he did not have the law or the authority to overthrow the election results," he began. "There's nothing in the 12th Amendment, nothing in the Electoral College Count Act that gives a vice president the unilateral authority to just disregard or throw out the results of the popular vote, as he is presiding over the count of the Electoral College votes."

"What all of this shows us, Kendis, is that there is going to be so much evidence coming out, that will prove, I suggest, like guys like [John] Eastman and certainly Donald Trump, and Jeffrey Clark -- who was assisting Trump in his efforts to overturn the election results -- they are going to build the case for this being a criminal conspiracy, indeed, a seditious conspiracy."

1. That's reassuring, but we NEED TO SEE SOME PROSECUTIONS!

[abqtommy]

2. I agree. We need to see serious prosecutions and serious sentences for these

serious crimes.

[FoxNewsSucks]

3. I'd be happy to see some arrests

We keep hearing "they handed us everything we need" yet the scumbag criminal grifters are still roaming free, continuing their scams, telling their side on their podcasts every day and having Klan rallies.

At the very least, they should have been arrested and be out on bond now. They've been treated as if we all imagined the crimes we saw with our own eyes.

Statutes of limitations set a time within which to charge a suspect. These circumstances are far worse than that because when republicons regain control after next year, anything being done now goes in the shredder. I wish I could see that they understand the urgency and very short time left.

11. "when republicons regain control after next year,"?

Is not going to happen, we gain seats in both houses, odds are stacked against them. IMHO

[oldsoftie]

12. Please dont put your money on that.

The way things are going it would be a money loser

[KS Toronado]

16. I'm not afraid to bet money on it.

My glass is half full.

[FoxNewsSucks]

19. I sincerely hope you're right

and I understand a desire to be optimistic.

But I see republicons working feverishly to lie, cheat and steal their way into permanent control. While I can't really be optimistic any longer about what I see happening, I don't think there's ever been something I've hoped more fervently to be wrong about.

7. It all gets down to Garland, whom, it appears, would rather avoid controversy than prosecute

serious violations of the law and our constitution…….”for the good of the country”

4. 18 U.S. Code § 2384 - Seditious conspiracy

“If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.”

Trump and his co-conspirators committed acts of sedition on national television and Trump and speakers at the rally clearly told attendees to go to the Capitol and stop the certification of Biden’s election, in other words “by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States.”

Why has a grand jury not been convened?

[Alexander Of Assyria]

6. The day after a grand jury hands down indictments the why will be instantly forgotten.

5. I like these threads much more than the "what's taking so long?" and the

“Herr always gets away with everything” ones that harbor only despondency.

[CanonRay]

8. DOJ can't even charge Bannon with Contempt of Congress

how the hell does anyone think they'll indict Trump?

[malaise]

9. K & R

Lock them up!

[SheltieLover]

10. Lock his slobby ass up!

[oldsoftie]

13. I'm hoping he doesnt "age" well......nt

[PatrickforB]

14. Goddamn right it was a criminal conspiracy!

Let's just hope our system does the right thing and convicts these traitors.

[demosurvivor]

15. Most people know

they are guilty as hell. I'm shocked they are not serving time by now. Just look at the DOJ sitting on their hands regarding Bannon.

Somehow I see these losers taking a victory lap. It is so sad watching Chump destroy our democracy each and every day.

Prove me wrong. I wanna be wrong in so many ways.

It's time.

[TeamProg]

17. We have to hope ! n/t

18. It's what we all knew, but it sure is sporting of them to wrap it all with a ribbon and a bow.

This is what John Oliver would call "Stupid Watergate."
