I’ll take “things that literally everyone saw coming” for $1000 Alex.
Grand jury names and addresses are public information in Georgia. It is admirable that the grand jury participants indicted Trump despite knowing they would almost certainly be subject to harassment and death threats from Trump’s MAGA goons.
Whats exactly is going to be the point where they actually take him into custody despite legally qualifying many times over?
It’s never going to happen.
I wish it would, but it isn’t. No one in this country with the power to imprison an ex-president actually wants to do it.
Despite this being public information, could this be deemed illegal because it’s blatantly ill-intended ?
Blatantly and provably are quite different things.
Feels a tad like jury tampering to me.
Merely posting them probably isn’t, but I doubt it will be hard to find comments connected to those posts that are less “subtle”.
Already happening. At one MAGA site someone posted, “These jurors have signed their death warrant by falsely indicting President Trump”. Still waiting to see some of those “very fine
people” MAGAs Trump said exist.

ATLANTA — The purported names and addresses of members of the grand jury that indicted Donald Trump and 18 of his co-defendants on state racketeering charges this week have been posted on a fringe website that often features violent rhetoric, NBC News has learned.
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis faced racist threats ahead of the return of the indictment and additional security measures were put in place, with some employees being allowed to work from home.
The grand juror’s purported addresses were spotted by Advance Democracy, Inc., a non-partisan research group founded by Daniel J. Jones, a former FBI investigator and staffer for the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.
“It’s becoming all too commonplace to see everyday citizens performing necessary functions for our democracy being targeted with violent threats by Trump-supporting extremists," Jones said.
Advance Democracy also noted that users were posting on other social media sites the names and images of people believed to have been grand jurors.
— Advance Democracy noted that Trump supporters were “using the term ‘rigger’ in lieu of a racial slur” in posts online.
