    I’m glad my country keeps juror identity strictly confidential. The lawyers involved and even the judge do not know the names or anything else about the jurors in a given case.

    That is done with the specific intention of preventing jury intimidation from criminals and their accomplices.

    Doesn’t this just make Trump’s case worse? He was under strict limits of what he could say on social media lest he “accidentally” intimidate witnesses, but he’s still culpable if his cronies do it for him.

      Georgia law requires the names of jurors to be public for the sake of transparency. So while Trump is a traitor, the juror’s names thing isn’t his doing.

      His supporters though, they’re absolutely going to be responsible once one of the jurors gets shot. And Trump will hold some of that responsibility for not keeping his cultists at bay.

        True, but if he engages in intimidation against them that’s still illegal, no? And against the terms of his bail?

    Okay, so we have… obstruction of justice, terrorism, threats with intent….

    Anything else we can throw at these traitors to get them launched into the sun? They don’t deserve to be on this planet, let alone remain free.

    Fuck these animals.
