Yeah that was kind of my thoughts on it. It's only okay when they do it.What the fuck do you call the fake Russian collusion story, and fake investigation and unlawfull tapping of trumps phones and on and on and on.
What about that douch nozel James Comy, what he did to the rancid skanks campain is 10,000 times what they are saying some goober making memes did ?Disenfranchised 4900 people, along with breaking wierd sounding laws like "rights hurting bad no no".
10 years.
We sit back and say better him than me. Don't worry, the law custom made to put you in jail is already on the books, all they need is for you to get their attention.
We are all felons, they just haven't decided to put us in prison
What the fuck do you call the fake Russian collusion story, and fake investigation and unlawfull tapping of trumps phones and on and on and on.
Huh, so it was a scheme to prevent people from voting.Douglass Mackey, also known as “Ricky Vaughn,” was convicted today by a federal jury in Brooklyn of the charge of Conspiracy Against Rights stemming from his scheme to deprive individuals of their constitutional right to vote. The verdict followed a one-week trial before United States District Judge Ann M. Donnelly. When sentenced, Mackey faces a maximum of 10 years in prison.
As proven at trial, between September 2016 and November 2016, Mackey conspired with other influential Twitter users and with members of private online groups to use social media platforms, including Twitter, to disseminate fraudulent messages that encouraged supporters of presidential candidate Hillary Clinton to “vote” via text message or social media which, in reality, was legally invalid. For example, on November 1, 2016, in or around the same time that Mackey was sending tweets suggesting the importance of limiting “black turnout,” the defendant tweeted an image depicting an African American woman standing in front of an “African Americans for Hillary” sign. The ad stated: “Avoid the Line. Vote from Home,” “Text ‘Hillary’ to 59925,” and “Vote for Hillary and be a part of history.” The fine print at the bottom of the deceptive image stated: “Must be 18 or older to vote. One vote per person. Must be a legal citizen of the United States. Voting by text not available in Guam, Puerto Rico, Alaska or Hawaii. Paid for by Hillary For President 2016.” The tweet included the typed hashtag “#ImWithHer,” a slogan frequently used by Hillary Clinton. On or about and before Election Day 2016, at least 4,900 unique telephone numbers texted “Hillary” or some derivative to the 59925 text number, which had been used in multiple deceptive campaign images tweeted by Mackey and his co-conspirators.
Several hours after tweeting the first image, Mackey tweeted an image depicting a woman seated at a conference room typing a message on her cell phone. This deceptive image was written in Spanish and mimicked a font used by the Clinton campaign in authentic ads. The image also included a copy of the Clinton campaign’s logo and the “ImWithHer” hashtag.
Comey? Dude, theyve got hundreds of people who could and should stand trial for interfering with the 2020 election....but...they are on the winning side. A lot like history being written by the winners Yada yada.What about that douch nozel James Comy, what he did to the rancid skanks campain is 10,000 times what they are saying some goober making memes did ?
Yeah i know but theres only one form of justice for some some, and one for tje others.Comey? Dude, theyve got hundreds of people who could and should stand trial for interfering with the 2020 election....but...they are on the winning side. A lot like history being written by the winners Yada yada.
Would a "reasonable person" think you could vote by text?So he wasn’t prosecuted for posting memes, but instead for trying to trick people into making invalid votes. That’s not just a claim - he was convicted for this.
Would a "reasonable person" think you could vote by text?
No, only liberal retards.
Satire, it's protected speech.
Man, he must have had shit lawyers. You could have got him acquitted with that winning argument.Would a "reasonable person" think you could vote by text?
No, only liberal retards.

It’s also made possible by all of us who do nothing about itEvery story such as this is made possible by the immoral men who suit up and carry guns for a corrupt state and force the will of tyrants. Back the blue!
But courts couldn't do anything about election officials bypassing legislature and changing election laws...Hmm, let’s have a look at what this is about?

Social Media Influencer Douglass Mackey Convicted of Election Interference in 2016 Presidential Race
“Mackey has been found guilty by a jury of his peers of attempting to deprive individuals from exercising their sacred right to vote for the candidate of their choice in the 2016 Presidential Election,” stated United States Attorney Peace. “Today’s verdict proves that the defendant’s fraudulent...www.justice.gov

Happy Friday!
They had plenty of help from the other wing of the uniparty.This shit has been snowballing since the Clinton years and now we're a banana republic thanks to the Demoncrats.
4900 "registered voters" dumb enough to fall for an on line post. Did they prove all of the texters were registered voters? Did any of the 4900 cast a real ballot after receiving the reply?
Slippery slope when assigning qualifiers to rights. North Carolina removed character references on pistol purchase permits and concealed carry in the past 10 years. The county sheriff could deny either just because he didn't like the brand of your car.I would argue that people that stupid, should not be allowed to vote....at all
Their job is to make sure we don’t. It damn sure isn’t about “public safety”. Only a complete fucking back the blue retard would still believe that. Any man that pushes back will be directly opposed not by politicians, but by LEO, judges and their surveillance/communication apparatus. This is just FACT.It’s also made possible by all of us who do nothing about it
How many of those 81M votes were real?Did any of the 4900 cast a real ballot after receiving the reply?
How many didn't get to vote as a result of the "Rona"?...4900 "registered voters" dumb enough to fall for an on line post. Did they prove all of the texters were registered voters? Did any of the 4900 cast a real ballot after receiving the reply?
I agree. Not nearly as slippery a slope as sentencing a man to 10 years for a meme.Slippery slope when assigning qualifiers to rights.

People who sentence a man to prison for political joke meme. There's No way in Hell, these same people will come after an unarmed populace .I agree. Not nearly as slippery a slope as sentencing a man to 10 years for a meme.

So explain to us why Kristina Wong - who did the EXACT same thing that Mackey was charged and convicted for - but HER prank was aimed at Republican voters - has never been indicted. Her tweet is still up, so you can read it for yourself:Hmm, let’s have a look at what this is about?

What aboutism.huh, don’t know anything about her. Did you turn her in? Did someone turn her in?
Hmm, time for a cursory glance at Google. Oh she’s a professional comedian.
Intent is often key in these kinds of situations, so was this just her tweeting something stupid? Or was she part of a coordinated scheme as Mackey was? It was shown in trial via witnesses and a paper trail of emails and DMs that Mackey worked with others to develop multiple fake “text your vote” posts and target specific groups leading up to the election.
Side note: thanks OP for bringing this whole case up. Looking deeper into the trial and it’s quite fascinating. That guy Microchip seems to have the goods on a lot of folks like Mackey. I suspect Jack Posobiec is sweating this hard.
It’s borderline Whataboutism, but I see Tucker brought her up so no doubt this will be getting more scrutiny. But with Tucker you’re not supposed to believe what he says is true or at least recognize that he may be lying just to get you riled up., so grain of salt. Could be an apples to oranges comparison masquerading as apples to apples? Either way, if you had found her tweet last month you might have been able to save Mackey from a conviction. Wait, does that mean Tucker withheld this bombshell evidence until after he was convicted? The deep dark rabbit holes you can go down with this stuff…
Edit: spelling is hard when you have old eyes
The point is, nobody should be charged for pulling a prank like this, but the guy who's a Trump supporter is facing 10 years in prison and an anti-Trump "comedian" is ignored for doing the same thing, and you don't seem to find that the least bit curious. Instead, you try to construct reasons for sending a guy to prison for what in both cases is a 1st Amendment issue, not election tampering. You seem incapable of understanding how this looks like the result of a two-tier justice system: one tier that ignores or gives very lenient treatment to supporters of the leftist establishment, and a separate tier that comes down hard on a guy they don't like in order to send the unmistakable message that they will make you pay a very high price for mocking them, the 1st Amendment be damned. If you can't see the obvious authoritarian outlines of this situation, I can't help you.huh, don’t know anything about her. Did you turn her in? Did someone turn her in?

I think he sees that. I believe that he is pointing out how they twisted the law to apply their heavy hand to the opposition.The point is, nobody should be charged for pulling a prank like this, but the guy who's a Trump supporter is facing 10 years in prison and an anti-Trump "comedian" is ignored for doing the same thing, and you don't seem to find that the least bit curious.

- and you are obtuse. I'm done here.I know the Bear Pit is where Occam's Razor goes to die, but this shouldn't be so hard to understand if you're being intellectually honest?
Mackey was charged and convicted of violating 18 U.S. Code § 241 - Conspiracy against rights. They had the receipts that showed this wasn't satire or a prank. They have comms showing he and others within his political circles planned and coordinated this effort to deny people's votes. It's not a free speech issue at all.
On top of that, he was arrested in January of 2021 which means the investigation happened during the Trump administration, probably under Barr. How is that a political prosecution?
Sheesh, you guys are exhausting.
i'm glad the government explained it clearly so you know all the facts.“Just the facts, man.”
Bill Barr is on the other team.I know the Bear Pit is where Occam's Razor goes to die, but this shouldn't be so hard to understand if you're being intellectually honest?
