Question: is all this crypto stuff part of Trump’s “official” Presidential duties? Seems to me that it’s not, which means not protected by the SCOTUS immunity nonsense. Let’s get the wheels of justice spinning!

Problem is all the mechanisms needed to prosecute him are controlled by him and GOP. (SCOTUS has no power to enforce, only interpret, but they are essentially GOP too.) That's why impeachment is not happening.

I wonder if that could happen. I sure hope so.

it could if the COngress and Senate were both Democrats that actually had some backbone. They can impeach him and have him removed if they want to go that far. But we have to get Jack Smith as attorney general and move faster than Merrick Garland and track the money like we did to get UBL.

I am not a lawyer but how is this family crypto coin part of his Presidential duties? It’s pure grift and corruption.

This should be one more reason to arrest and/or remove him from office. This is definitely no Presidential duty!

Could any citizen file charges against him, or would the courts claim they don't have standing? I want every single crook and thief in his administration AND in Congress to be held accountable.

Good and interesting question! If it were possible, I'm sure there are plenty of citizens who'd be interested, but it would take legal representation. I think I'll do some checking!

Ben,

How long will it be before Trump claims that the new American pope was his doing ? Just another deluded remark from his addled brain

Trump taking credit is just around the corner!! You know when he says "country" he means "me"

“Congratulations to Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, who was just named Pope,” Trump said in a post to Truth Social. “It is such an honor to realize that he is the first American Pope. What excitement, and what a Great Honor for our Country. I look forward to meeting Pope Leo XIV. It will be a very meaningful moment!”

Not to mention waste, fraud and abuse: wasting years of military training both now and into the future, fraudulent reason for doing so, abuse of American citizens who have devoted their careers to serving the public with honor.

Could a lawsuit about the Trump coin initiate the Supreme Court to reconsider presidential immunity as part of a corruption case? What’s the path to criminally charging Trump? Not if but when the Dems take the majority next year what kind of action can they take to pursuer a criminal investigation and also bring forth to the Supreme Court a case to reconsider or amend the decision on indicting sitting presidents

Oaktown's avatar

I'm pretty sure this SCOTUS who brought us the immunity travesty will never rule in favor of indicting sitting presidents. But isn't it true that civil actions can be brought while he's still in office (I'm thinking the Paula Jones case against Clinton when he was prez)?

What he's doing with his crypto scams is criminal, but couldn't it also be a civil class action tort brought by all the suckers who lost their shirts to the insider crypto grifters? Ben showed a video of some young dummy who invested $1.2 million he inherited from his grandfather recorded as he was losing it all and heavily breathing under a paper bag to disguise his identity. You can't make this stuff up.

So glad you’re taking a strong focus of Trump’s crypto shenanigans. Have long been watching my senator, Ron Wyden, address this for like FOREVER. Heard Chris Murphy sounding the alarm months ago. Maybe this can be a way to crack this presidency.

Hope you’re going to take a little break, Popok! (Daniel Tiger-‘Rest is best!!’)🤣♥️

Hello-Us that didn't vote for him knew he would do this. He is a criminal, we knew this. I really hope the ones that voted FOR him are taking note and will not vote for his Republican mobsters that are allowing him to get away with it.
