BREAKING: THE SECOND CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS HAS THROWN OUT MY CONVICTION FOR LACK OF EVIDENCE

THE CASE HAS BEEN REMANDED TO THE DISTRICT COURT WITH ORDERS TO IMMEDIATELY DISMISS

HALLELUJAH!

Here’s the opinion:

"Its primary evidence of agreement, apart

from the memes themselves, consisted of exchanges among the participants in

several private Twitter message groups—exchanges the government argued

showed the intent of the participants to interfere with others’ exercise of their right

to vote. Yet the government failed to offer sufficient evidence that Mackey even

viewed—let alone participated in—any of these exchanges. And in the absence

of such evidence, the government’s remaining circumstantial evidence cannot

alone establish Mackey’s knowing agreement. Accordingly, the jury’s verdict

and the resulting judgment of conviction must be set aside."

What a fucking clown show.

"In 2014, Mackey, then 24 years old, began posting on Twitter under the

pseudonym “Ricky Vaughn,” the name of Charlie Sheen’s character in the 1989

movie “Major League.”7 He selected as his account profile picture (“avatar”) an

image of Charlie Sheen’s Vaughn character wearing a red “Make America Great

Again” (“MAGA”) cap. This avatar appeared in the upper left-hand corner of

Mackey’s tweets."

Mackey described himself as a “troll,” “shitposter,” or “shitlord,” which to him meant someone who “post[s] a lot of stuff” to “distract or get the conversation going.”8

8 At trial, the parties used the terms “stuff posting” and “stuff lord” so as “not to unnecessarily use offensive language.” Trial Tr. at 666–67.

good for ricky vaughn. good for setting precedent. vindicated!

meanwhile, vaughn spent almost a decade living in Hell (the process is the punishment), the alt right movement was completely and utterly destroyed (and ruining vaughn's life was an important part of it), and they installed dementia joe in 2020 with a stolen election and then imported in 20 million illegal mud creatures and instituted permanent vote by mail fraud ensuring every election moving forward, including 2024, is 100% fake and controlled

BTW: the next time our elite want to they'll simply ignore this precedent and steamroll over it

On January 22, 2021, over four years after Mackey posted the text-to-vote memes, the government filed a complaint charging him with conspiring to “injure, oppress, threaten and intimidate persons in the free exercise and enjoyment of . . . the right to vote” in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 241. D. Ct. Doc. No. 1 at 1.
