Is anyone surprised that Bannon has been convicted by a jury? Is Jenny Thomas next?

Asked by HP (6425points) July 24th, 2022

Why are the courts so mean to conservatives? Liberal judges, conservative judges, Trump appointees to the bench. The poor righties can’t sem to catch a break. What’s up?

That’s a joke, right? Courts are mean to conservatives? ha ha ha ha.

You’re drawing the wrong conclusion from the facts. Conservatives are found guilty because conservatives break the law.

Don’t break the law .. you won’t be found guilty. It’s really pretty simple.

No you must be wrong. If they are all going to jail it is because the justice system is enslaved by the left. The fact that they DO go to jail is the proof.

But there’s another possibility. Perhaps they aren’t actually falling like dominoes. It’s probably the left and its media making it all up.

It’s nice to see a BIT of accountability, but people in power (on the left and right) are often immune from consequences for their actions.

So why can’t the Trumpers catch a break? Hillary got away with it Where are her indicted and convicted aides, lawyers, toadies, etc.? Obama’s term was the most boring scandal free 8 years since the equally corruption dull years of the Bush(s). Hell, Cheney had to shoot a guy in the face to get some attention.

HOW do you blame it on the left when it was a Trump appointee, a right winger, who did the damage to Bannon??? Oops, excuse me, it was BANNON who did the damage to himself by being such a brat…That’s what happens when you’re a bully & want to control everybody else!!!

What charges have been leveled against Jenny Thomas?

@HP it’s Ginnie Thomas, not Jenny. And we’ll see what she says to the Jan 6 Committee.

@zenvelo do you expect her to tell the truth? And potentially implicate her hubby?

zenvelo's avatar

@elbanditoroso Nope.

And @HP Hillary was not contemptious of Congress, but sat and was grilled on national TV for hours with the same questions over and over, and the Republicans could never pin any wrong doing on her.

Bannon could have avoided all this if he had just shown up for his deposition.

@zenvelo I think Bannon figures it’s better for him to suffer the conviction for contempt of Congress than face questions to which the answers guarantee far more serious charges than contempt. And this is probably the situation for virtually everyone who is attempting to duck out of testifying.
