Capone sent one of his men to visit Ness. He handed Ness a wad of cash. Ness took the cash and stuffed it into the messengers pocket. Eliott Ness was truly an Untouchable.

Obviously at least one law was broken because he was in possession of these documents. He needs to be indicted and stand trial and depending on the level of his crimes, like maybe he sold national security intel, he should face real consequences, maybe even like the Rosenbergs faced.

    @@1rittenour1 he’s speaking of tyrants and authoritarians, regardless of party. Right now, there’s for more tyranny and authoritarianism coming from the MAGA crazies in the Republican Party than anywhere else. And the sheeple following Trump are the worst part of it, openly calling for civil war over nothing more than a 76-year-old child getting his ego hurt and being caught in a lie. Because the FBI had the audacity to do their jobs and apply the same standard to an ex-President turned traitor as they do any other American citizen. As well they should.

    Rallying cry for the Democrats, "Too Big To Rig!," Meaning you have to pound the living hell out of these lying Repub grifters in the upcoming elections, and frankly, all future elections. Just try calling foul when you lose every election by 30 percent! We need to excoriate these phony Republicans to such an extent that will be out of power for a decade. By then, the whack-jobs will have left and the conservatives might actually form a serious, public minded party. Imagine having a government where both sides -- the Dems ain't perfect either -- try to pass laws for the common good! But for now, the right-wing nut-jobs need to be given a nice "time out," so people can work out these serious problems in the US.

    I agree. The American people as a whole don't want Trump to lead and want him held accountable.

    I don't disagree, but I don't think trump CAN lead, it's not that I don't want him (which is also true) but...I don't, I didn't, and I won't EVER want him in the WH. He only belongs in the 'Big House'.

    Sorry Sam, Al Capone DIDN’T die in prison. He died at his winter home in Miami Beach of syphilis.
