The argument here is that Republicans would feel justified retaliating against Dems but it's nonsensical as they've already fully embraced the conspiracy theories about a weaponized DOJ despite biden's hands-off approach and doing so would just validate the right's ludicrous "witch hunt" narrative.
This is by Marc Thiessen and Danielle Pletka so of course it's deeply unserious.

CW: B&E's🤝#CorporateEspionage🤝#GOP🤝#malware as a campaign
Would it be #weird iF they found out that there were MILLIONS of mini-#WaterGates but had happened to people who worked in the under #Fortune100's in the last 6+yrs under investigation*?
Definetely. Especially when the #CISO's ALL start comparing notes about this happening as a GROUP**.

@ElectionCentral @fact-check-ElectionCentral
Well, if you factor in the sexual assaults, election fraud, financial fraud, bank fraud, treason, incitement to violence, uttering threats, contempt of court, kidnapping refugee seekers, misappropriation of government funds, theft of classified material, lying to law enforcement, witness intimidation and RICO violations Republicans and their leader are perpetrating then yeah, I can see how it might spike the crime rate.

I'm sure many non-white violent offenders have families and small businesses, aren't affiliated with militias or gangs and show up for their court dates.
You'll never see a story about a judge detaining one of them pending trial because they pose a threat to the community begin like this one.

Fascinating nugget in this one. MI GOP Chair Laura Cox drafted text saying the fake electors would only represent Trump if a Court found he'd won. But Cox, who'd been on the campaign trail maskless, says she got covid from Rudy and the campaign pushed ahead without it. And now they all face charges.
That language was included in some states, and those people face no legal jeopardy. Glad Rudy is on their side.

#Trump and RNC chief Ronna McDaniel could have been charged with bribery for offering to cover lawyers’ fees for two Michigan election officials if they refused to certify the vote. #GOPCrimeWave #MAGAcoup

Long before he did what literally any mayor of NYC would do on 9/11, Rudy incited a mob of drunken, racist cops to riot.

Some right-wing lawyer and "election integrity" activist who usually bamboozles the public convinced a bunch of Republican losers that she could prove that they'd been victims of election fraud and now the Texas GOP is suing her for grifting them out of $350K.

The party of law and order and backing the blue doesn't want a bunch of goons who attacked cops during a riot to face charges.

Almost all of the (rare) cases of actual voter fraud in recent years have been committed by Republicans who believe the right-wing propaganda about Dems stealing elections and think that it's easy to get away with and also that they're fighting fire with fire.

House Republicans are proposing to offset #Israel aid by cutting IRS financing that's mostly earmarked for enforcement against wealthy tax cheats because they care about their donors ability to rip us off.
Every dollar that's cut from high-end enforcement would add around $5 to the deficit.

Ken Paxton was indicted 8 years ago on felony securities fraud charges. Trial has finally been set for April. We'll see if it finally happens.

Byron Donalds has been a rep for 3 years, was convicted of bribery and is inseparable from his "senior political advisor" whose rap sheet includes armed robbery, aggravated battery and grand theft auto but electing him would show that the Dems are the real racists so I think he has a good shot.

Former Bush press secretary...
"He was eventually fired for misconduct, which included using racial slurs.
"He's also accused of screaming profanities at co-workers and physically intimidating them, and conducting 'unauthorized background investigations on his co-workers and their families'"

These affluent lawyers and state pols seem to be genuinely surprised that people would dare to hold them accountable for their hamfisted coup attempt. Perhaps with good reason, given our history, but it just reeks of privilege.

NIH study, based on WHO data, found that American exceptionalism is real.
We have 7.5X the homicide rate of other rich countries.
Largely the result of a gun murder rate that's 25X higher.
Gun death rate, incl suicide & accidents, is 11X higher.
In the data set, the US had 84% of all gun deaths.
And 92% of women and 97% of children under 5yo killed by guns.
A result of an individual right to bear arms invented by GOP judges this century.
