American Democracy Saved by Mike Pence’s Decision
Two and a half years ago, American democracy came perilously close to succumbing to Donald Trump’s autocratic demand. Vice President Mike Pence’s decision to certify the vote for Joe Biden played a pivotal role in preventing a potential crisis.
For more on this, we are joined by Judge J. Michael Ludic, a former federal judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit.
Indictment of Donald Trump
In response to the news of Donald Trump receiving a target letter, Judge Ludic believes that charges must be brought against the former president for his actions on January 6th. He emphasizes the importance of upholding the rule of law and preserving democracy.
Concerns About Title 18 Section 241
Judge Ludic expressed caution about Title 18 Section 241, a statute reportedly cited in the target letter. He urges against speculation and emphasizes the need to wait for official information regarding the charges.
Call for Reflection within the Republican Party
In a recent op-ed, Judge Ludic called on Republicans to reflect on their unwavering support for Donald Trump. He highlighted the party’s responsibility in the indictment of the former president and urged for a change in their stance.
Republican Response
Despite voices like Judge Ludic’s, the Republican Party continues to show allegiance to Donald Trump. Only a few notable figures have pushed back against the former president, indicating a lack of willingness to challenge Trump within the party.
Conclusion
As the political landscape continues to evolve, the role of individuals like Judge Ludic in advocating for accountability and the rule of law remains crucial. What are your thoughts on the current state of American democracy and the Republican Party’s alignment with Donald Trump? Feel free to leave a comment below.
You have to much to loose
Good luck with that 😅
You should be in jail for allowing this to happen 😮it don't need to be redacted it needs to be reckoned with USDA home stolen account access rear-ended in Austin Texas moving force to be reckoned with adatitle2 tort x 3 retaliation deliberately constitutional violation Access control 😮
If he wins, USA’s enemies will jump for joy and be more emboldened to wreak more havoc.
Why isnt trump in a cell.I would be.
My god some one do something about Trump. Preserve the usa
Trump was never charged with insurrection. Get Over It
Charge Donald Trump!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Thank you for speaking the TRUTH. ❤❤❤❤❤. I pray you make a change. Give the American people hope.
Trump had a salary while he was president?
Thus, employee of "We the peoples".
Another civil servant !
Being a US civil servant…
Another KANGAROO?
TRUMP 2024
These charges are as phony as the Steele Dossier. Free speech includes questioning election results. And even if any of these false charges were true, Trump has presidential immunity. He can't be charged or convicted of anything he did while president except through impeachment while in office and he was found not guilty. The second out-of-office impeachment was unconstitutional and he was still not guilty! All these charges will be thrown out. Luttig is a deep-state-captured sock puppet. I hope Vivek gets to take out the D.C. garbage!
Luttig is anti-democratic, bitter, crazy, deranged, and hyperventilating anti-Trumper. Trump was never charged with insurrection and told the crowd "go to the Capitol and protest PEACEFULLY and PATRIOTICALLY" this is nothing but weaponizing the DOJ against Biden's political enemy. Judge Luttig thinks we live in a authoritarian, banana republic where its OK to prosecute political speech and tamper with elections.
John Luttig is an American corporate lawyer and jurist who was a judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit from 1991 to 2006. Luttig resigned from the court of appeals in 2006 to become general counsel of Boeing, a position he held until 2019.
Luttig is a neocon warmonger, not a conservative.
Do extreme lies (about the Gov't, constitution, election process, enforcement of the rule of law, Etc.) deprive voters of their rights to be the informed electorate on which a successful democracy depends?
Michael Luttig, on PBS, said there weren't any republican officials willing to denounce Trump's "Big Lie" & Jan 6th actions, Etc.. I disagree, and believe Chris Christie is!
Evil
If no Republican Party in his eyes , then you would be declaring a Dictatorship , which would be right up this persons alley
Republicans exist., so get used to it
IMO
If they can not stop trump they will activate BLM & Antifa, Release Another Pandemic, Or be Invaded by Martians, and Declare Martial Law… There Isn't Going To Be a 2024 Election.
Judge Luttig is a hero. Absolute hero.
What a loser!
There's a judge, a judge is in democrats pockets
I don't understand why it's not brought up that Republicans are standing by him due to their part in this conspiracy. There scared shitless that if he goes down they will too
dont wait, donate now, trump will be needing custom tailored orange jumpsuits to match his orange makeup
Pence wants the Vice President. I don’t why.
Yes! YES!!! Thank you Judge! Finally it's said… Trump must be prosecuted for mocking everything…For the preservation of our Constitution! 😊
Trump should be in jail but he probably never will. He is just a big spoiled brat/bully, and of course a crook. He formed a coup. If a president did what he did yrs ago they would have been hung for treason.
The GOP has become Trump's play thing.
We are in a very different place right now Democrats who were led by the nose by the media, have put America and the world in danger.
trump will be punished … it’s that Simple !!!
Next is parking tickets.
If Americans fail to vote 🗳 Democrat up and down the ticket in OVERWHELMING NUMBERS. Republican maga fascism will finish the job of destroying democracy leaving our country in ruin.
Oh. I love this man. The judge too LOL. Hey Allie! Seriously, this judge has a voice we need every day. I need it on tape to calm my fears. My psyche is messed up with donny being on tv every dang day re Grift & Grievance For 6 years he tormented us.
Angst & rage & need & fear cascade from him & as I was recovering from a surgery & then on covid isolation, my brain & nerves soaked in his bitter & rage laden diatribe. I need resolution. We need resolution. It helped to hear this
Allie, you always jelp
Thank you & Thank you Judge Luttig.
I don`t know what former VP mike pence may have said to DOJ investigators, but he HAS LIED to the American People in coverup of trump`s
(& others such as john eastman &&&)
crimes to steal the 2020 election.
In my opinion
(& depending upon what he may have admitted to DOJ)
he should be charged, convicted & sentenced to prison.
At the very least he should NEVER be allowed to hold public office.
Not even as DOG CATCHER!
Pence could not prevent Biden from becoming President. He could have disrupted the process, but not stopped it happening.
Bud light is a pathetic excuse for beer
People just like this judge are THE protection we need from the more corrupt elements of the gop. People who stand up for the truth even if it goes against their party.
It is, straight up, treason.
