Legal repercussions have arrived for the leaders of the effort to overturn the 2020 presidential contest, in what could serve as a warning to those who meddle in future elections.

Taking down a president it even a past president has to be done thoroughly and carefully. Trust me doing it any other way would be catastrophic. Your high school civics teacher can explain it. Why don’t I? I’m in the bathroom at work. I definitely don’t have the time.
But the short answer is, there really is no other faster way to “run a society”.
Every single use of the government’s criminal law powers should be done thoroughly and carefully because all citizens are entitled to due process of law. A former or current president should not get preferential treatment. Beyond the basic morality of it, if we don’t push back on this crap hard we’re going to get a lot more George Santos-es and other two bit con artists who use our political system as cover for their fraud, and that kind of kakistocracy would be way more catastrophic than making Republicans upset will be.
