When special counsel Jack Smith criminally charged Donald Trump this month for attempting to overturn the 2020 election, the indictment referenced six unnamed co-conspirators—five of whom are identifiable—who aided the ex-president’s plot to stay in power, i.e. break the law. Why Smith chose not to charge these individuals is unclear; while it’s possible that the prosecutor only targeted Trump to expedite the case, it’s also plausible that he did so as part of a strategy to get them to cooperate and become government witnesses against the former guy. And according to a new report, it seems like at least some of these people might be willing to talk to save themselves.

    Good. I hope the fear keeps him super stressed out and anxious. With a little luck the stress will give him an ulcer so he can live the rest of his life in pain and agony.

      Ugh, I know they don’t deserve the sweet embrace of death, but I honestly would appreciate it if him, his whole family, and anyone who ever remotely supported him even for a brief moment just dropped dead already.

      Face it Republicans, you couldn’t make America white… ahem… “great” again. Perhaps you’ll have better luck in Hell? Fucking Nazis and their sympathizers can fucking die.

      Hoping the stress and the decades of eating McDonald’s lead to a fatal heart attack before the election.
