That's a very common chain of thinking for people with poor Critical Thinking Skills.
A new trial isn't automatic. Many Hung Juries are never tried again, because often the District Attorney has no reason to believe that the outcome will be any different in another expensive trial.
A hung jury in Luigi's case would definitely be re-tried, over and over, if necessary, but after 3 or 4 hung juries, they'd probably finally give up, and blame liberals.
No, that is WRONG. It only requires ONE juror to refuse to vote Guilty, and it's a Hung Jury.
They are getting more and more out of touch, and they have no idea it's happening.
We're seeing signs of it every day. A Healthcare CEO is murdered, and the alleged murderer has the majority of the population on his side. A Democratic Socialist wins the NYC mayoral primary by a wide margin, and even his own party disparages him. Jobs are going unfilled because people are refusing to work for minimal wages, while corporations and the government sneer that they are lazy gamers. The streets are filling with enormous crowds of protesters, and their numbers grow with each demonstration.
The Revolution is coming, and all of us are it know it, but the Sociopathic Oligarchs, and their enslaved politicians have no idea. They still think they are in charge, but it is only the ingrained politeness of the American citizenry that has kept their blood from flowing in the gutters.
Once the American people lose their patience with the wealthy and their political slaves, it is going to get very, very ugly for the MAGA Nazis and their enablers (including weak, simpering, spineless Democrats like Chuck Schumer).
Sooner or later he would have been offered the CEO position of a big health tech start-up, it would have grown for a few years, than either gone public or sold for several billion, and he'd be the Billionaire he was angling to be.
He was making that much now, but his salary would have increased steadily, as his immoral policies brought in more profit by murdering their customers. He would have reached Billionaire status far quicker than 40 years.
He may not have been a Billionaire - YET - but at his age, he certainly saw himself on that track. He was already ordering horrific policies on behalf of increased profit, so he would look good to his bosses and move up the ladder. He was already an active corporate serial killer, murdering people to advance his career and net worth. Eventually, if he sacrificed enough customers on the altar of profit, he would be rewarded with a Billionaireship.
They are carefully curating their membership so it's more MAGA-friendly. They're turning it into Twitter.
Maybe they shouldn't have permabanned thousands of active users like me, with a 12 year account and nearly 1 million Karma. People like me built Reddit, and as soon as HitlerPig was inaugurated, the DOGE Goblin demanded that Reddit purge its membership. Now they're stuck with bots, novelty accounts, punsters, Russian Propaganda Farmers, MAGA activists, etc.
The Sheriff's phone was on Do Not Disturb, in a major flood zone, with a monster storm underway.
One of the major uses for unions was to give mobsters a steady paycheck. Every Union working on a big civil construction project would inflate their budgets by a few extra men, and those jobs would go to mobsters.
There were two types of jobs. In the first type, the guy had to show up to the job site, but he didn't have to work. Union guys from the old days can tell you about the 3 or 4 guys who did nothing but play cards all day. These jobs went to the lower level workers, often younger, just so they would have a "normal" looking life, and a regular paycheck.
The second type were "ghost" jobs, where the workers never even showed up. These went to the higher level guys, who might hold multiple ghost jobs simultaneously.
Then they would also steer contracts to mobbed-up suppliers, with inferior products, shorted orders, bribes, etc.
Hound him until the day he dies. Investigate EVERYTHING, leave no stone unturned, and charge him with every single count he ever violated. Then stack the sentences on top of each other. Hopefully, it's only about 18 months for each sentence, so that he has to switch prisons every year or two, so he can never get settled in. Unless they just want to toss him in the deepest dungeon in the new 30,000 bed facility he's building in Guantanamo right now. Let him be housed in his own prison.
The facility is comprised of tents, in a gator and snake infested swamp in southern Florida, one of the most active hurricane regions on the planet. The first hurricane or tropical storm that comes through there is going to destroy that place, and put those people at mortal risk.
Alligator Auschwitz sounds good.
I used to work in management for a Fortune 100 company, and they'd send people around for little afternoon management seminars on one thing or another (usually sexual harassment stuff).
One day, one of the visitors mentioned that money wasn't even in the top 5 reasons that people work, and tried to move on from that, but I stopped them, and made them repeat it, and then said "Well that's not true at all. It's literally the ONLY reason ANYONE goes to work."
They tried to argue it, but I just said "If it's a Payday Friday, and the boss doesn't hand out the paychecks, and tells everyone that there won't be any future paychecks, but they'll see everyone on Monday, the boss will walk into an empty office on Monday. Nobody works for any reason other than a paycheck "
And that was a great job, that almost everybody reading this would enthusiastically grab without thinking twice, but nobody is going to do it for free.
Every Christian knows that Jesus' miracle with the loaves and fishes was just a mistranslation, and it really read Wings and Fries in the original Aramaic. So Jesus would approve of going to Hooters.
Carry on.
They don't believe in the Streisand Effect, on accounta sheeza dirty liberal commie.
"These are not the files you are looking for..."
By any objective measure, he is the most prolific traitor in American history. He is a worse Traitor than ALL other American traitors COMBINED. The damage he has done to America is incalculable, and possibly irreparable.
Traitor should ALWAYS come first
Sure, but they believe it, and it would be productive to sow doubt in their ranks, and make them defend it.
