Should Trump be indicted? I’m not talking about his Fraudulent, Tax Evading corrupt business practice – we’ll leave that to the NY State AG and the Manhattan District Attorney. Nor his legal problems with Election Interference in the State of Georgia, we’ll leave that to the Fulton County District Attorney, Atlanta Judicial Circuit. I mean here charges of Sedition and Conspiracy to Overthrow the U.S. Government. Credible Reporting by numerous sources inform us that Former Pres. Trump was actively advancing unconstitutional schemes to illegally seize power and remain in Office, after having overwhelmingly lost this Nation’s most secure, and most reviewed and contested Presidential Election.
Reliable, verifiable
information now comes to light that in the end days of Trump’s failed Presidency
and failed Re-election bid, Trump and his closest acolytes (Giuliani, Kushner,
Trump Jr., Eric Trump, et al…), proposed Seditionist, Treasonous, Illegal
Plans. Thankfully, cooler heads prevailed. Much more thoughtful, reasonable
people threatened Resignation and Press Conferences in order to rein-in Trump.

Win This Election: The Inside Story of How Trump Lost. By Michael C. Bender
‘A Warning’ Anonymous (Miles Taylor)
Recently, I
compared the Trump Regime to the rise of Nazism in 1930’s Germany. Whenever and
wherever I see Nazi-like conduct in Public and/or Government, I call it out. (Please see: June 8 blog): https://joeywalsez.blogspot.com/2021/06/democracy-itself-is-in-peril-here-at.html
Often, this is
seen as over-emotional, overreaction. Personally, I think it ridiculous to
claim the mantra of ‘Never Again!’, and then portray such comparisons as overreaction.
Eugene Robinson columnist and an associate editor of The Washington Post, (Pulitzer Prize Winner 2009), recently spoke of such comparisons – ‘I have a rule to columnists not to invoke Nazi’s, and here’s Gen. Mark Milley Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, saying Trump’s Presidency is at a ‘Reichstag Moment’ with “Brownshirts” in the streets’, and the ‘Gospel of the Fuhrer’. Thank You, Mr. Robinson, and Gen. Milley, for Validation.

Further,
Ret. Gen. Barry McCaffery, not a Trump Staffer, but a Pentagon ‘Insider’ none-the-less,
said today on MSNBC: When Foreign Intelligence Officials examine Trump’s
actions at the time, they would conclude – This guy’s planning a ‘Coup against
Democracy’. He also described the Trump years in Washington as a ‘Nearly
Illegal Presidency’.
In addition to
being awarded the Silver Star, (Twice awarded the Silver Star for exceptional
valor in Vietnam combat action as a rifle company commander (1st Cavalry
Division), Gen. McCaffery Co-chaired the United States
NATO Counterterrorism Working Group and among other honors, Served as Lt.
General on the Joint Chiefs Pentagon staff as the J5Strategic Planner, and also served
as a Major General on the Army Pentagon staff as the strategic planner. Point
being this Distinguished Patriot is a guy who knows of which he speaks.
Among the
Generals was former Lt. Col. Mark Esper, previous Secretary of the Army and
then U.S. Secretary of Defense. Trump fired Secretary Esper following Trump’s
loss to Biden in November. Defense Secretary Esper has been described as ‘being
at odds with the president’ in matters involving deployment of U.S. Military
Forces to quell Domestic Disturbance, and invoking the Insurrection Act during
Black Lives Matter protests. ‘We are not
in one of those situations now. I do not support invoking the Insurrection
Act.” Esper said then.
Had it not
been for some mature, sane, reasonable people in positions of responsibility,
the Nightmare that was the Trump Presidency could have been much worse. Should
Trump be indicted? I think yes, the Congressional Hearings on the January 6th
Insurrection should conclude that Donald J. Trump should be Indicted and
Prosecuted for Sedition against this Constitutional Republic, which is The
United States of America. Also, there are some GOP Members of Congress on some
very thin ice as well, (Hello, Mr. McCarthy). More will be revealed….
