Rep. Andrew Clyde (R-Ga.) is proposing two amendments to an appropriations bill that would defund the various prosecutions of former President Trump.
He is adding to the defense of the former president mounted by Trump allies in the House as they circle the wagons in the face of four indictments.
Clyde, a member of the House Appropriations Committee, on Monday announced plans for two amendments to the Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies (CJS) fiscal 2024 appropriations bill that would “prohibit the use of federal funding for the prosecution of any major presidential candidate prior to the upcoming presidential election on November 5th, 2024,” according to a press release.
Even if this was added to the bill, there's no way it would ever reach the president's desk. And if it did, there's no way Biden wouldn't veto it.
This is just somebody signalling his loyalty to Orange Steal so he can swoop in and grab a little of his powerbase when Orange Steal is serving out his golden years in a jumpsuit that matches his spray tan.
I guarantee you, the Biden administration has a planned timeline they want to see this prosecution play out over, and it ends in a conviction before the election. It has contingencies in place for every bullshit delaying tactic conservatives will try to throw at them. He's going to jail for a very long time, and I'd say the majority of people are starting to wise up to this fact.
Republicans have shot his bills down countless times because he's mostly a prick to everyone. Nobody likes the guy and he's hardly useful in any capacity to the GOP outside of a warm body who can physically push a "yea" button when they tell him to push it.
He's like MTG who is from the close by 14th district except more irritating to listen to and less well put together. Pretty much exactly what you'd expect from rural Georgia yet just less pleasant in pretty much every aspect than most Republicans.
Not only that, guy is a well known coward. His usual response to difficult things is to do his best impression of Zoidberging out of the situation. Guy is worthless skin who'd run for cover if someone started popping popcorn.
Let's hope not, or if so let's hope it's very hard to prove... If Biden has all that planned, it would suggest executive interference and politically motivated prosecution. Don't get me wrong, Trump needs to crash and burn, just saying...
