Representative Barbara Lee (D-CA), who is running for U.S. Senate to fill the seat soon to be vacated by Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), said Thursday on MSNBC’s “Deadline” that her lawsuit against former President Donald Trump was “in the country’s best interest.”
Lee was reacting to news that the Justice Department said Capitol Police officers and Democratic lawmakers could sue Trump over the Jan. 6, 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol.
Lee said, “In our lawsuit, of course, the essence of it is that President Trump is not immune from the actions he took that day, what he said, what he directed the insurrectionists, those who wanted to perpetuate a coup d’état.

If Rebublicans had an remnant of testicles, they would make this insane folks and the courts live by their own rules. Sue Maxine Waters, Chuckie Schumer, Crazy uncle Bernie and others that have encouraged violence against political opponents. It would be in the country best interest to hold these individuals accountable. And it would force the courts to honor the Constitution for once.

These people are nuts with their obsession over Trump. Yo Speaker McCarthy - wanna try using the bullhorn of your speaker position? Call these people out but instead it's back to the playing nice across the aisle.

It has been proven that trump was not resonsible for what went on at the capitol while trump was speaking perfectly a mile away (peacefully and patrioticaly have your VOICES heard) as well as the montage of demonrat pols truly inciting violence that was played during fake impeachment 2.0. If there a thread of justice in this country, these frivolous lawsuits will be hit with huge legal fees as trump hires many worldclass lawyers to put them down. Most people that go after trump end up destroying their self with hatred and greed (e.g. the golden boy of the demonrats, alvenatti)

Ms. Lee was endorsed by L.A. mayor Bass, a one-time commie camp follower of Fidel Castro. That tells me plenty about this woman other that she's a democrat.

Never forget that this woman is the only member of congress who voted against the Iraq war right after September 11, 2001.

Call your psychiatrist, make an appointment, sit on the sofa, and tell her how you really feel about how much you resent hate, and envy President Trump. Pay the $250 an hour and afterward find a good happy hour with good eats and then do an emotional trauma dump on the bartender and waitress.

By taking the issue to the DC Circuit, DOJ has assured the court's ruling yesterday will be appealed to the Supreme Court. Garland may be deferring indictment and prosecution until SCOTUS decides on Trump's immunity for January 6. I believe that the Court will rule that a presidential speech has qualified immunity assuming that nothing on its face (e.g. "Now go and invade the Capitol") constitutes proximate cause for the riot. (Trump, in fact, urged a peaceful demonstration.) Leaving aside disputed facts over FBI participation, over-zealous partisans who made it from the Eclipse to the Capitol physically could not get there in time to become the instigators. I believe the Court will also determine as a matter of law that Trump's alleged subsequent neglect could not constitute proximate cause as a matter of law. End-result, both Trump's speech and alleged neglect are qualifiedly immune from civil action. On this basis, Garland can wash his hands of a decision to prosecute.

Hope Barbara Lee loses her election bid. Couldn’t happen to a nicer person. Another lying liberal.

Does she truly believe that by suing Trump the people of California will find her more worthy to represent them as a U.S. Senator? In California she'd garner more votes if she came out as a tranny or a lesbian.
