In 2023, Mackey was convicted of “conspiring to deprive people of their right to vote” under an old federal law (18 U.S.C. § 241). The government claimed that a couple of memes he posted before the 2016 election, jokes suggesting Hillary Clinton supporters could vote by text, were part of a criminal conspiracy to interfere with the election.

After reviewing everything, the appeals court just shot the Biden regime’s theory to pieces.

The judges ruled there was no real evidence that Mackey worked with anyone to break the law. Just posting memes, even dumb or edgy ones, is not a crime unless there’s proof of a plan with others to commit some illegal act. And in Mackey’s case, the appeals court ruled that proof didn’t exist.

What makes this even more powerful is that the decision was unanimous… all three judges, appointed by both Dem and Republican presidents, agreed that the case against Mackey was a total flop. This wasn’t some partisan ruling; it was a clear, across-the-board rejection of the Biden DOJ’s attempt to criminalize political speech.



The government’s entire flimsy case hinged on a few private Twitter group chats, but they couldn’t prove Mackey even read them, let alone plotted anything with other users. The court said there was no real connection between Mackey and the so-called conspirators. He wasn’t even in most of the groups when this alleged plot went down. The judges also found that the memes Mackey posted were already circulating publicly online, and there’s no evidence he collaborated with anyone in crafting or posting them.

They even called the government’s theory “speculative” and said no “rational jury” could have convicted him based on the facts.

The bottom line, according to the Appeals Court, is that Mackey never conspired with anyone to deprive voters of anything. He tweeted a meme. The DOJ under Biden tried to turn that into a federal crime. And today, the court finally said no, and Mackey is now a free man. God is good.

Now that justice has finally been served, maybe it’s time for Douglass Mackey to turn the tables and sue the federal government for the political lawfare they weaponized against him. They tried to ruin his life over a meme; there ought to be serious consequences for that.

What he needs to do is not sue the federal government, he needs to sue the individuals that did this, upto and including the pOtAtO in cheff.

Commie shit bags!

I have semi followed this story, and it just shows, along with everything the GDCs did to Trump, how tyrannical they are. They ARE, NOT WERE. As soon as they get back into power, we'll see more of this shit, unless We The People make damn sure they stay out of power, and make laws that hold them accountable for their actions.

Agreed.

This should illustrate to freedom loving people how dangerous the Left is. The constitution and bill of rights don’t stop them. Our founding documents only slow them down.

Some real BS the 1st trump DOJ rightly saw no charge and didn’t proceed and 4 years And a week later the Biden DOJ digs this 4 year old thing up ? And conspiracy needs 2 people. He’s just a dude posting funny memes.

Having the appeals court not only reverse but VACATE a conviction shows what BS this was.

It’s obsession. They are obsessed with misery. They are obsessed with their narratives. A trooper was shot today on a traffic stop. The suspect fled, carjacked a couple, then drove to a church and killed 3 people. The comments? Trumps fault, Trumps peoples fault, blah blah blah.

Being a victim to everything is a full time job.

The Steele Dossier *was* an attempt to manipulate that election yet who’s in jail for that?
