Always good to see Trump Flunkies failing to making the latest Lie stick. Perhaps simply echoing each panic-attack of the indicted and impeached Loser — perhaps that’s not the best strategy afterall, eh, Jimbo?

Jordan tweeted: x Remember, if the FBI can do it to a presidential candidate, they can do it to you too. — Rep. Jim Jordan (@Jim_Jordan) June 21, 2023 Trump was indicted on 37 counts related to the classified documents scandal, including charges centered on the alleged mishandling of sensitive information and for obstruction of justice. Given the nature of those allegations ― and the fact that others accused of similar crimes are routinely prosecuted and sentenced to prison ― Jordan’s critics were quick to point out that the FBI did exactly what it’s supposed to.

The replies from “rule of law” abiding citizens were not kind, to say the least:

x Absolutely correct, Mr. Chairman. Anyone in this country who steals classified documents and then lies repeatedly to the government about returning them will probably get a visit from the FBI. https://t.co/6Fv8haEmBg — Rep. Nadler (@RepJerryNadler) June 21, 2023

x Dear Jim,



Yes, that’s true. No one is above the law. And btw Jim, this tweet makes you sound kind of stupid. You may want to delete it.



Sincerely,

Your Former Congressional Colleague https://t.co/10qDaHnTHl — Joe Walsh (@WalshFreedom) June 22, 2023

x Look out! If you too keep top-secret documents about nuclear secrets and refuse for more than a year to return them, even as they spill out of boxes, and hide boxes from investigators, and manipulate your lawyers into lying to authorities--why, you too are at risk! https://t.co/ZRcBB9AQSL — Nicholas Kristof (@NickKristof) June 22, 2023

x If you steal highly sensitive national security documents, show them to people, hide/move them and obstruct attempts to retrieve them, then yes, the FBI will arrest you. https://t.co/7JfEjvCE06 — Reed Galen (@reedgalen) June 21, 2023

x Except the FBI didn't do anything at all to hurt a Presidential candidate named Donald Trump, but they had no problem doing it to Hillary Clinton. — The Fact Checker (@MonitorFake) June 21, 2023

x True. If you steal top secret documents that belong in a SCIF and store them in the bathroom in your gold-leafed pimp palace and then have your sycophantic valet help you evade a subpoena and obstruct the investigation with you, they can do it to you too. https://t.co/M7NjfrxN5R — Spiro’s Ghost (@AntiToxicPeople) June 21, 2023

x Let me fix this:



Remember, if you break the law, they can do it to you. — Dr. Haidak (JP), Psy.D. 🇺🇸🇮🇱🏳️‍🌈 (@JHaidak) June 21, 2023

Even those replies “in support” of Jordan’s retweet of his Boss’s whiny “warning” — weren’t all that supportive of ole Jumpin Jim:

x Oh god, sthu. Nobody is coming after us, we aren't criminals.

I CANNOT say the same about you. — Nicholas (@Nicholasemma4) June 21, 2023

x Do something. Grandstanding on Twitter is not something. — W3sst3r (@w3sst3r) June 21, 2023

x I’m untouchable tho! — Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸……………………………(Parody) (@Combat_Vet_) June 21, 2023

x If only someone was in the position to fix this.🤔 — Melissa (@MelissaUSAIs1) June 21, 2023

x No one is above the law.



Excellent message! — Turbohand (@turbohand) June 21, 2023



It’s good to see that “retweeting” crime still doesn’t pay — or more precisely “parroting” the Big Boss’s insane “criminal defense” is not the winning maneuver GOP Grand-standers think it is.

The Big Loser still lost — no matter how many times repeat his nonsense.

— —

Just following Boss’s orders … Squawk!

Squawk louder, losers:

Just repeating my focus-group tested scary word … Woooh! Woke, Woke, Woke.
