Comment on Georgia grand jury recommended charging three US senators

While nearly all were in agreement to charge Mr Trump and his top attorneys, including Rudy Giuliani and John Eastman, there was a more pronounced split about whether to charge the senators.
Footnotes included beneath each vote give a glimpse into their disagreements. The splits could portend challenges for prosecutors at an eventual trial, where a jury vote unanimously to convict.

This is the problem with radicalization. Get enough of a percentage to never hold them accountable, and you can be relatively unfettered to act as you please with little consequence from the law. The key is to slowly go more radical as you push the boundaries of what a large enough percentage are simply comfortable with ‘whatever means necessary’.
