Fascist dictatorship, and so bill barr, after, ive got to say, humiliating himself for several years, bill barr decides, this is where i get off. This is enough. This is my line. I believe in an imperial presidency, but i dont believe in a fascist presidency. Thats what donald trump was asking him to do. Asking him to steal an election. Asking him to arrest his political opponents. Asking him to do the sort of things, again, that fascist dictators do. He wouldnt do it. Now, trump has turned on him. As far as fani willis goes and jack smith and everything else, again, we can point you back to it and play it for you again, what we were saying in 2019. If donald trump lost in 2020, he would run again, and hed run again simply to avoid all the crimes he was committing. Im not good at math, but that was four years ago. Four years ago, we were saying he will run again so he can try to avoid jail. Going to jail. Here we are. I must say, a lot of people were saying that, so its hard to believe
infamous snapchat video taken by paul murdaugh that puts alec at the scene of the crime that night. despite his denial that he had been there. four minutes later the state would have you believe that alec murdaugh up and blew his son s brains out of his head and murders his wife, after having that conversation about bubba having a chicken. there s nothing on that tape that indicates there s any strife, any conflict, any anger, any planning, anybody being afraid, anybody running, anybody scurrying. nothing. maggie, paul, and alec down at the kennel. that s it. and john stood up after the defense to offer the rebuttal, meadors was brought on my the south carolina attorney general s office. maybe he got angry at paul. maybe he got angry, he started all of this. and maybe he just lost it. maybe he just lost it. maybe it looked like a suicide, and then maggie came and he had to shoot her. maybe he just lost it. the jury set to begin deliberations any moment. as judge clifton
Seen that at the time. the reason for the pardon, which ford granted about a month after taking office he took office on august 9th, 1974, and the pardon was granted september 8th, a month later. the reason he did that, he couldn t move ahead in the office of the presidency with that hanging over the fate of the country, in some respects, and it was locking him up. he couldn t go on to the duties of being president and handling the issues that were holding us back at that time, including an economy that was suffering from stagflation and a lingering war in vietnam. so he just wanted to put it past the country, so he decided to pardon richard nixon. it is interesting, eugene, because, later, ford was asked what the disqualifying trait for the presidency should be. he said, arrogance. this was just four years after
Labor day weekend, he gets his drug dealer curtis smith to shoot him in the head. said he couldn t go on because it would all come crashing down and he had a big life insurance policy. when alex is at financial collapse, he doesn t go kill somebody else, he tries to end it himself. this is a natural response. you don t want anybody to do it. but people kill themselves from being exposed. they don t kill their wife they have adore, son, the apple of his eye as some people have said. that s not that s not that is i don t have the adjective for that it is so outlandish. i don t have a word for it.
Have killed people he loved the most in the world. there s no evidence that he would do that. we do have evidence of what he would do, and did do and he gets this drug dealer to shoot him in the head. so he couldn t go on. it was all going to come crashing down, and he had a big life insurance policy. so when alex is at financial collapse, he doesn t go kill somebody else. he tries to end it himself. laura, what did you make of this moment, essentially saying, listen, going out and getting yourself killed and collecting on that life insurance policy, that actually is quote unquote more sane than going and killing your wife and your son because you are in financial distress, that s their argument. i think it s effective to attack the theory of motive. it s never hung together in an intuitive way.
