@Harlem55 7 месяцев назад

As a 10th amendmemt question, how does the state of Georgia attain subject matter jurisdiction over an election for federal office? It seems that multiple federal circuit opinions hold that the states have lack of subject matter jurisdiction over federal processes (e.g. cases holding that state laws pertaining to process servers do not apply to a Fed R Civ P rule 4 complaint; state private investigator laws do not apply to a rule 11 investigation, etc. upon the grounds the states may not regulate what is a federal government process or matter. ) Therefore, it would seem that the long established federal appellate law outright bars Georgia's cases because the nature of a federal office confers subject matter jurisdiction to the federal district courts not to the state courts. Can you expound upon this a bit? Because to me, it would seem that the pleas must be vacated and the cases dismissed for lack of subject matter jurisdiction upon grounds of the nondelegation doctrine (e.g. the congress cannot delegate federal election law to the several states thus rendering Georgias law as applied unconstitutional).

I was in charge of physical ballots once, in an election where the results were decidedly not what I would have preferred. The results had already been recorded, signed off on and announced but I still had a sealed collection of ballots in my possession. I knew exactly what my responsibility was, what the law was and I took that responsibility incredibly seriously. It didn't matter what the result was, people's votes had been entrusted into my care and it was my responsibility that every single ballot was kept safe and secure. There would have been no universe where I would have let some random lawyer or anyone have access to the ballots or let them leave my control. I took better care of the collection of ballots that couldn't be cast! Genuinely shocked anyone in that position would be that cavalier with something that important.

@@Nixeu42 i dont see how logically the application of " justice" should be inflexible, like for an example of what i mean. For instance if like in certain european countries you recieved a speeding ticket and had an income level that placed you near the poverty line then lets say its a fine of 100 dollars thats still a punishment , but if you were a millionaire 100 dollars is pocket change and you can keep causing harm so long as you have a bank account big enough to tank the hit. So instead they scale that fine to the person so they get charged 1000 instead. Maybe im explaining this poorly but its a bit like getting spanked as a kid , if that was the baseline punishment but never changed after a few years it stops being effective because an adult can take much more, so in this hypothetical as the person becomes an adult the implement of punishment should change ,per se, a large paddle so its actually a punishment and the action will be less likely repeated. So fiscal spanking needs an upgrade to be effective

@christams8863 Powell sounds like mid tier since she was referred to as a Lieutenant. I wouldn't say small fry but certainly there's bigger fish to catch.

@starsalign9336 7 месяцев назад

It does seem like a bad sign that these guys got off without any jail time. Who are the bigger fry? Obviously, Rump bit maybe !eadows and Giuliani? If they let Giuliani and Meadows and all the rest go without jail time we may be seeing no jail time for anyone. Sickening indeed. It seems that these “lieutenants “ should have at least had to serve a few months. This sends a bad message to all. And worse, foot soldiers who believed all these lieutenants’ lies go to prison, some for a very long time.

@NinjaLobsterStudios 7 месяцев назад

They (as in, the general population) aren't naive. They are targets of misinformation orchestrated by groups with political interests. There are many factors that affect why a person will engage in conspiratorial thinking. But often the underlying need is the same: that person has a specific world view, and the conspiracy theory is what would have to be correct for their world view to also be correct.

Many of these people, in addition to federal/state charges, have civil suits against them. Pleading guilty must weigh heavy on those civil cases. I would be really interested in hearing a LegalEagle take on the implications to the civil cases.

@chrisschack9716 7 месяцев назад

A few months back, Legal Eagle showed up on a WIRED video that discussed, among other things, the difference between pleading guilty and pleading "no contest". The point arose that a guilty plea makes a civil case on the same charges pretty much a slam dunk due to the greater burden of proof required.

If they plead guilty in a criminal case and the claims/facts are the same, then the civil case is essentially over. The other side could probably win on summary judgment.

I think she was coerced. coerce = "to force or compel, as by threats, to do something" says Collins online dictionary The threat was that she was going to go to jail if she didn't sing like a canary.

My hot take is that the people who have pleaded out have been the ones with the most exposure to the criminal justice system, 3 lawyers and a bail bondsman. These are the ones who understand what is at stake and, at least in the case of the lawyers, how strong the case is against them. Honestly if I was a defendant here and the lawyers start accepting plea deals, you better believe my butt would be down at the prosecutor's office first thing in the morning with a box of Starbucks coffee and a couple dozen doughnuts ready to sing like a canary.
