2021-12-21 at 3:11 AM UTCJohn McCain was very socially conservative and never advocated for military restraint. I hate even using "conservative" to describe someone's political leanings because left and right make no sense anymore. I guess that's why people like John McCain are adored by people on both sides. He was an interesting cat, a bit different than most bureaucrats. His favorite book was "for whom the bell tolls" and when I learned that I felt I got a better sense of who he was as a person. He was an idealistic dick God rest his soulThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire!

2021-12-21 at 3:17 AM UTCHe was a pretty angry guy too who was bought and sold countess times. Idk why I have a soft spot for him, probably because he spent 6 years in a POW camp but then got out and didn't become a better person like Terry Waite or anyone else. I always like the concept of kidnapping and wrote a few rough short stories and an unfinished longer one about kidnappings.
I think every person in the world can agree that Barack Obama was a better choice in 2008The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

A felony charge

Lead Capitol riot charge is constitutional, judges find
Rachel Weiner
Three federal judges have agreed that the most serious charge faced by those accused of participation in the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol is constitutional, a victory for the Justice Department and a blow to the defendants fighting those accusations.
Lead Capitol riot charge is constitutional, judges find
The ruling came Monday evening from U.S. District Judge Amit B. Mehta, who is overseeing the prosecutions of more than a dozen people associated with the Oath Keepers, a self-styled militia group. Mehta joins judges Dabney L. Friedrich and Timothy J. Kelly, both of whom have moved to uphold the obstruction charges in other cases.
The same legal challenge has been raised by defendants in various Capitol riot prosecutions, from single-person indictments to sprawling conspiracy cases. One judge who has questioned the use of the obstruction charge has yet to rule on the issue.
Without that felony charge, prosecutors would be left with only minor charges against many they view as playing a major role in the riot. The Justice Department has avoided charges of sedition, a rarely used law, and not all those accused of acting as key instigators were seen assaulting police officers.
What crime might Trump have committed on Jan. 6? Liz Cheney points to one.
The ruling also has broader implications. Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) has suggested former president Donald Trump could be charged with obstruction of an official proceeding.
Mehta had previously expressed concern that it was unclear what conduct counted as felony “obstruction of an official proceeding” as opposed to misdemeanor disruption of a congressional hearing — a difference between a potential sentence of six months and 20 years behind bars.
But after months of consideration and legal arguments on both sides, Mehta ruled that the government had it right.
“Their alleged actions were no mere political protest,” he wrote. “They stand accused of combining, among themselves and with others, to force their way into the Capitol building, past security barricades and law enforcement, to ‘Stop, delay, and hinder the Certification of the Electoral College vote.’ ”
Defendants had argued that it was unclear whether the certification of President Biden’s victory counted as an “official proceeding.” Charging participants in the Jan. 6 riot with obstruction, they warned, could turn even peaceful protesters into potential felons.
Right wing and liberal vigils planned for in D.C. on anniversary of Capitol riot
Mehta said the “plain text” of the obstruction law covered the group’s actions, and that “even if there were a line of ambiguity ... their alleged acts went well beyond it.” Because the law requires the obstruction to be undertaken “corruptly,” he added, it does not imperil constitutionally protected free speech.
Prosecutors say the Oath Keepers prepared for Jan. 6 with “military-style and combat trainings,” Mehta noted, and armed themselves with tactical gear and in some cases bear spray before entering the building. According to the government, they stashed guns in a hotel nearby in Virginia. Inside the Capitol, they confronted police. One grabbed an officer and yelled, “Get out of my Capitol!”
If those charges are proved at trial, the judge said, “a conviction ... would not violate the First Amendment.” -

YOU ARE SO FULL OF SHIT, SPECULUM. This statement of yours holds just as much credibility as all the rest of your official pronouncements. Your "fact" was disproven almost two years ago. You are a proven liar. You are pathetic with your repeated claims that you never back up because they're all BULLSHIT.
SNOPES
Is Kamala Harris Jussie Smollett’s Aunt?
The surname "Harris" is one of the 30 most popular last names in the United States.
Dan Evon
Published 25 February 2019
Claim
Senator Kamala Harris is the aunt of actor Jussie Smollett.
Rating
False
Origin
In February 2019, a rumor circulated on social media that Jussi Smollett, the Empire actor accused of making false claims about being the victim of a hate crime, was the nephew of Democratic U.S. senator (and presidential candidate) Kamala Harris of California.
Conservative radio host Kevin McCullough was one Twitter user who promoted the notion that Harris was Smollett’s aunt:
McCullough deleted his tweet after it generated a considerable amount of ridicule.
The claim that Kamala Harris is Jussie Smollett’s aunt was offered by a number of social media users, but the documentation presented with it was flimsy at best. In fact, the most substantial piece of “evidence” presented to support this conspiracy theory was that Smollett’s mother and the California senator share a surname:
Sharing a last name does not constitute proof that these two women are siblings, however. In fact, the surname “Harris” is one of the most popular surnames in the United States, ranking in the top 30 of the 2010 U.S. Census. We’ve examined the biographical information available for these two public figures and found that their family branches simply do not intersect.
Kamala Harris, who was born in Oakland, California, has a single sibling, a younger sister named Maya who was born in Illinois. In order for Kamala to be Jussie Smollett’s aunt, Maya — who is only 16 years older than Smollett — would have to his mother. However, Smollett’s mother’s first name is Janet, not Maya, and she is from New Orleans, not Illinois.
Neither did we find any familial relationship between Kamala Harris and the Smollett family through marriage that might provide a basis for referring to Kamala as Jussie’s “aunt.” Jussie Smollett was born in Santa Rosa, California, to Janet (Harris) Smollett and Joel Smollett Sr. (who migrated to the U.S. from Russia and Poland). Jussie said the family moved to Queens when he was two years old, and afterwards, according to the New York Times, he grew up “bouncing with [his] parents and siblings between New York and Los Angeles, as the kids pursued careers in modeling, acting and music.”
Neither Kamala Harris’ husband, Douglas Emhoff, nor Maya Harris’ husband, Tony West, has any discernible connection to Jussie’s parents. Emhoff hails from New York, graduated USC law school, is a prominent entertainment and intellectual property lawyer in Los Angeles, and has two grown children from a previous relationship. West hails from San Francisco, graduated Stanford law school, serves as general counsel and Chief Legal Officer at Uber, and has one daughter with his wife Maya.
