His real name is Douglas Mackey. His crimes.... Biden was elected.


Most of his charges stem from 2016 and his memes about Hillary.


That's right. Creating memes.



quote:

Mackey’s arrest comes on the heels of a federal crackdown against supporters of former President Trump who participated in the breach of the U.S. Capitol Building on Jan. 6. However, the bulk of Mackey’s actions laid out in the complaint occurred in 2016.

“According to the allegations in the indictment, the defendant exploited a social media platform to infringe one of the most basic and sacred rights guaranteed by the Constitution: the right to vote,” said Nicholas L. McQuaid, acting assistant attorney general of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division, in a statement. “This indictment underscores the department’s commitment to investigating and prosecuting those who would undermine citizens’ voting rights.”






The truth... one of his memes (was even shared here) was making fun of hillary supporters saying text in their vote.



And for that... he faces 10 years.

The Communist Democrat Party would rather all conservatives be executed or imprisoned for wrong thoughts.

Wow! That’s some third world dictator stuff right there-

So the meme was from 2016? Wouldn’t there be a statute of limitations?

Thanks xiden*, now we have Political Prisoners now because we have people who were dumb enough to believe that they could actually vote for president by phone.

The Eugene McCarthy Hearings were real; today, Marxism has replaced Capitalism/Constitutional Principle/Rights from God and those who threaten the Marxist (Deep) State are now the 'insurrectionists'.

November will be definitive as to the path forward. One thing is for sure, the Left will gas light and cities will burn unless the real insurrectionists (BLM, Antifa, et al) are violently confronted. That alone will be societal powder keg.

It’s actually worse than that. The Feds haven’t brought forth a single person who will attest to being harmed by the meme - i.e. missing voting.

I’m okay with this guy getting charged, although I think probation is an appropriate sentence.

But if this is a crime, there’s boatloads of Democratic voting frickery that needs to get charged.
