...he's almost certainly been reported to the Tennessee Bar at this point. Meaning his law license could be suspended or even terminated.

That's apart from any type of criminal action for felony jury tampering.

I mean, unless federal agents are on their way as we speak to arrest him, and unless the Tennessee Bar has a representative currently on the way to rip up his law license, that means nothing is going to happen to this guy?

You know things don't happen instantaneously, right?

Which I would bet will happen this time, nothing.

...so I would simply suggest taking a wait and see approach, okay?

* because the doom-and-gloom, and cynical hostility performances are quite the trendy emo thing to do on the internet right now. It's everywhere. Lydia Deetz comes to mind.

Court was never in doubt to me.

This shit head actually has the audacity to double down.

Link to tweet

7 years, take the bar exam, and still be THAT stupid? It is like he is channeling Donald Trump.

I hope he's willing to work pro bono, because Trump has a habit of not paying attorneys. 🤣

he would gotten paid upfront, but judging by that tweet.............

NY Penal Law 215.25 "A person is guilty of tampering with a juror in the first degree when, with intent to influence the outcome of an action or proceeding, he communicates with a juror in such action or proceeding, except as authorized by law.

Tampering with a juror in the first degree is a class A misdemeanor."

Doesn't that have to be direct contact?

For those that don't know... this Travis guy is one of the duo that took over for Rush Limbaugh on his stations on the radio

considered a crime. He is telling people to do that.

When Donnie tweets, he attacks the person and gives out their address but doesn't tell followers to violate the law but just hints at it. This attorney is telling to them how to vote before the evidence is even presented so he is telling them to violate their sworn duty.

than his attorney, that is incredible.

Where did this fool get his law degree? Trump University?

Per his website.

This guy is some local right-wing radio show hack as well. Another in the long line of rabble-rousing AM radio wingnuts, getting the Tennessee uneducated riled-up and howling for blood.

There's at least one in every medium-sized city in the country.

Like they all crawled out from under a rock at the same time or perhaps they are the result of some bizarre alien Body Snatchers whose intention is to destroy mankind before taking over the planet.

Most of them are fairly well-educated, too. That makes it easier to control the uneducated masses. The rubes know these people are educated, so they must know what they're talking about!
It makes it easier to grift the rubes, too, which is why almost all of them sell some sort of snake-oil to make extra money.
I think they offered a course in "grifting the rubes, 101," at Trump University.

Though of course such people have always been with us - the grifters and the gullible. If the grifters were held accountable and the gullible were better educated, the world would be a better place.

I think Trump came along and opened the gates of hell and let all the dormant con artists out at one time, while stirring up the ignorant masses simultaneously. A perfect storm it would seem.

but certainly not for us.

Basically he was better off in most regards before he ran for president.

People like him are never satisfied. There's never enough for him.

If there's one thing I could wish for everyone in the world, it's being satisfied and thankful for what they have, and to not feel the need to always want more, and know it.

When I finally got off the hamster wheel and realized that about my own existence, it was the happiest day of my life.

Peace to you, PatSeg.

in his administration where he DID realize his new gig was very restrictive and the White House "was a dump" compared to what he was accustomed to.

Trump was used to doing whatever he wanted, whenever he wanted and all of sudden there were restrictions and rules, not to mention all those boring people coming into the Oval Office explaining tedious stuff he didn't understand or care about.

But of course his massive ego won out and in spite of all the restrictions, "it is good to be King" even if Putin was controlling the strings. A wiser man would have been content with less, but clearly that has never applied to Trump.

Yes, the older I get, I find that often less is more.

Thanks.

if he is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. This attorney is asking and encouraging sworn jurors to break their oaths and possibly the law. He is an officer of the court who is encouraging lawlessness.

He needs to be gone from the case immediately. This amounts to a form of contempt of court.

That'll teach me to post while on the phone at work....

who also happens to be an attorney, from Tennessee.
He might be auditioning for Trump by doing dumb shit like this, but he has no association with Trump at the moment.
He'd make a great Attorney General, though, right?

I may not have studied law but, DAMN!

Of course the MAGAts in the jury pool will fight to get on and acquit him. Just like I would fight to get on and convict him. They didn’t need coaching from him. He stuck his nose out for nothing. Moron.

they are going to have to do some lying during jury selection to get on that jury. That's the problem.

They lie. It’s what they do.

That's why it's a problem. (For the juror)

in Tennessee. He's looking for publicity, and he's getting it.

an art form.

Clay is nothing but a troll with a bad haircut...and Rush is still FUCKING dead

Where's the crime again? Where's the jurisdiction on a social media platform?
If it's in TN, will TN be able to get Xtwitter to verify that it was he who sent the tweet so they can prosecute him? Or the DOJ?

Section 10(16):. "Juror" means any person who is a member of any jury, including a grand jury, impaneled by any court in this state or by any public servant authorized by law to impanel a jury. The term juror also includes a person who has been drawn or summoned to attend as a
prospective juror.

Jury tampering is broadly defined in Section 215.25 as follows: "A person is guilty of tampering with a juror in the first degree when, with intent to influence the outcome of an action or proceeding, he communicates with a juror in such action or proceeding, except as authorized by law.
Tampering with a juror in the first degree is a class A misdemeanor."

That still leaves the question of whether someone can tamper with New York jurors by communicating with them by means other than a communication that originates in the state of New York.

and we already have jury tampering.

The sentence for a Class A misdemeanor in New York can include up to one year in jail, a fine of up to $1,000, probation for two or three years, and/or a conditional discharge. Most first time offenders get probation or a fine.

In NY State?

This guy must have studied law, at Trump University.

on to this and DO something about it - soon!

by admitting they probably couldn’t be impartial. Then the bobble-heads explained to us how now we could be assured of a fair trial. What’s happened to common sense and logic? Obviously it’s good that some people are honest enough to admit they can’t be impartial; unfortunately I believe the number of honest people with integrity is going to skew towards Democratic supporters and those who keep up with news and have an open mind.

However, the hard core Magatts will have no problem lying in a court of law about their belief that tRump should be acquitted of all charges, screw the evidence. The fact that such an obvious loophole in this “self-recusing” behaviour is beyond the grasp of a CNN news anchor doesn’t come as a surprise, but it’s still amusing. How dumb do you have to be to get that job? I hope this Clay Travis story gets some coverage, and I hope the prosecuting attorneys dig a little deeper then asking for a show of hands.

Judge and prosecutors know about this information.

... what motivates seemingly intelligent people to voice ANY support for such a vile insult to the color orange as Donald Trump. I've been watching his clown show for more than 40 years. There are more than 4,000 lawsuits pending against this despicable turd of a man who is directly responsible for driving some of his victims to suicide. And this evil sonofabitch has NEVER been held to account for any of his crimes.
The room-temperature IQs that defile the Flag by wearing it as a jockstrap while attending his Nuremberg rallies are irredeemable idiots who deserve whatever happens to them as a result of their devotion to this scumbag. They are immune to reason, facts, or logic, and spew infantile rationalizations for shameless behavior no one can ignore, like the most asinine bullshit excuse of all time, "Oh, that's just Trump being Trump!"
But swine like Governor Chris Sununu of New Hampshire, who knows full well what a malicious sociopath Trump is, STILL pledges his support for him, no matter what crimes he commits. Der Party before country, ain't that right, Chris. People like him have no business holding any office of power and responsibility. There have to be SOME standards of common human decency that govern the behavior of elected officials. Currently, there are none, and the nation is poorer for it.

Otherwise, he’s just rackin’ up more fines.

There is a duo of asshats called Clay Travis and Buck Sexton that do what was once the Limbaugh show. These two have a huge platform from which to do their jury tampering and Magat conditioning.
