Individuals bearing Confederate insignia did prevent him from doing his job. So yeah, it does tie back directly to the Civil War.

And just because a law is "little used" doesn't mean it become moot. It's a federal law with prescribed civil penalty relief.

Nah, they will just say that the mob might be guilty, but Trump and Giuliani weren’t there. They are masters of intimation and making sure to not say anything explicitly incriminatory. People love to talk about how stupid and moronic Trump is, but is he? Really? Seems pretty smart to me to get to be President, move the country much closer to a banana republic, and then leave with no consequences.

Congress knows how to repeal laws. They didn't. That says it all.

I’m hoping he stays in court for the rest of his miserable life. It’s comical that his attorneys are getting successively worse. I guess he can’t afford good ones.

I am hoping he stays in jail, not court.

His actions have resulted in MANY deaths.

They can try but the facts as outlined will pass Summary Judgment.

No, they won’t.

That’s an antiquated law, written for a different era. It’s an anachronism, it’s totally irrelevant today, just like the second amendment.

Right?

Former President Donald Trump and attorney Rudy Giuliani are being accused of conspiring with the far-right groups Proud Boys and Oath Keepers to incite the January 6 insurrection in a civil lawsuit filed Tuesday in federal court by the Democratic chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee and backed by the NAACP.

This is amazing. Read the 2nd para of the fling document!

Aren't both of those groups lead by FBI informers?

They'll probably reject the case on some manufactured issue with standing, or declare the case moot, or perhaps reject it based on issues of remedy.

McConnell's speech Saturday will be used in court to give political cover to judges/SCOTUS when Trump argues that he can't be sued over his official acts as President.
