    You may be right, but I think it might be a net gain for the country if the matter was pursued, even if it ends up in a loss.  I think the perception of dem overreach on political persecution is one reason voters rejected the same old hash for another 4 years.  As has been said so many times re: Trump and associates, if they have nothing to hide, they tell the truth and the chips fall as they do. 

     

    One thing I wouldn't worry about is concern about wasting taxpayer money, that's a DC tradition.  As for Smith, yeah, let's get it all out.  Good, bad, ugly. Who they talked to. Who got squeezed.  Tone and tenor of communication.  

     

    Your solution for perceived political prosecution is to do *actual* political prosecution?

     

    Also, I think Trump would be pretty upset if all of the special counsel materials were made public. It would certainly be pretty bad for him and also set a bad precedent. But I would be lying if I didn't say there's a part of me that wouldn't mind seeing it happen.

    You raise an excellent point here regarding Special Counsel Smith and potential wrongdoing. 
     

    Members of the House have requested that he retain documents and records related to his investigation, and I’m sure there will be some interesting information in there should he comply.  I think we all would agree that complete transparency is in order—notes, texts, court orders, witness interviews and interrogations.  It’s also important to know , if possible, who leaked what to whom, and any efforts to find and punish leakers should they exist. 
     

    With luck, everything was above-board with no impropriety and the country can finally put this ugliness to rest.  If, instead, concerns are raised, they should be addressed.  
     

    I don’t wish it on anyone but how ironic would it be if armed agents served a warrant on SC Smith’s house or Merrick’s place.  

     

    Beyond that, we know the recommendations of Robt Hur as it relates to JB removing/possessing classified docs over his many decades in office.  @ChiGoose has offered up that in spite of wrongdoing on the part of JB, the law allows for “special rules for electeds” presumably meaning some prosecutors would look the other while others might not.  
     

    Now that we’re here, is it possible to re-evaluate the circumstances and press forward with prosecution when JB is out of office?   If rules can be suspended, doesn’t it make sense that they could be interpreted differently by reasonable people?  
     

    Thanks Tibsy for bringing this up— 
     

     

     

    I don't see how anything changes regarding the likelihood of success in prosecuting Biden. A new AG may think it's worth prosecuting anyway, but they would almost certainly lose. Just a waste of taxpayer money.

     

    As much as I'd love Jack Smith to make all of the evidence and documents public, it would go against practice and also be bad for Trump. Usually, at the end of a Special Counsel investigation, they submit a report. I'm not sure how that even plays out under these circumstances.

    So Axios is saying that unnamed maga members have said project 25 is the agenda 

     

    But Trump and his advisers haven’t 

     

     

    and Goosey is claiming that we should all feel silly. 
     

     

    Someone should ‘feel’ silly alright, 

     

    Sad

     

     

     


    …the story names the people, bud. 
     

    Reading is fundamental, but I guess only for some.

    Reasonable take, perhaps.  


    California is the unfortunate combination of being very large and very slow to count votes. 
     

    We just typically never care or notice because California hasn’t mattered in a presidential election in a long time. 
     

    Add to that outstanding ballots to be counted across the country and mail in ballots still coming in, and I think we’ll see the total popular vote increase quite a bit before it’s all said and done.

    Laughable. You are as much a condescending sh*tbag as anyone here. Spare us the indignation. 


    I’m certainly no saint. I have no problem calling out individuals for saying dumb sh!t. 
     

    But I don’t view swaths of Americans as my enemy and I do not delight in their unhappiness. 


    However, it does seem that a lot of people here are intent on proving my point, so thanks for that
