Actually, I think the DOJ is more on the job than thought. There's an old old rule, which became an old, old rule because it's so, so true: When you strike the king, you MUST kill him.
The only thing that would be an order of magnitude worse than not charging Trump would be charging him and not making it stick.

Hello Allen. Your blog was very informative. Thank you. I tried to comment but was rejected. Boo who! I'm worried about what the story will be this fall when the Western countries can't let their people freeze. I have always leaned in your direction with the thought that the West will bale. Thoughts on the energy issue? The 'no fly zone' way back then hasn't left my brain. Salud! 💙💛
No idea why it would not let you comment. I am hoping with the influx of weapons from USA etc, and the constant diminishing of Russian military that by the end of September Russia will be on the run. Also by then the need for Russian gas will have diminished a fair bit. We shall see. A NATO enforced no-fly zone is unworkable without dragging NATO into the war though Russia may do that for us. Anti-aircraft protection will help a great deal and a dozen F-16s would really help
True enough but when he has testified against himself on national television a conviction would seem almost to be a foregone conclusion. Jury selection, on the other hand, could be a serious challenge, especially if the traitor has competent legal advice.
yeah, the jury selection thing (premature, I know, but we can dream) is something I think about a LOT. one fan of TFF and it's a hung jury. and we KNOW TFF admires and emulates Mafia-type goons. and he DOES know their shit a bit more intimately than if he's just watched "The Godfather" and a few Scorsese movies.
Interloper, here. Not trying him would be the worst thing. Start the process very soon. We are better off dealing with the violence now than when the Senate, House and presidency are in Republican hands or when they've got two out of three. We need several leaders to do what Biden isn't doing .
Biden has not come up with a strategy designed to characterize the Republican Party/Trumpist Party for what it is -- a pack of leeches -- parasitic predators -- stealing our wealth for themselves -- stealing our rights -- destroying earth -- killing us with gun violence and unaffordable drug costs -- Dickensian -- Medieval. Come on David -- where are the truth tellers? Who is telling our story? 'Biden is essentially powerless'!! Do you believe that? We don't have the writers, the directors, the art directors, the performers, the plain folks to show the dark reality of the Republican Party?
yeah...I'm getting a little impatient with some friends who keep hollering about how Garland needs to arrest TFF like, last week or something. based on what I've heard from various federal prosecutors (mostly podcasts of course), they have a really high conviction rate because they don't move until they have as close to an airtight case as possible. insane though it may seem, the actual evidence of serious, intentional criminality is still insufficient, although Ms. Hutchinson DID provide about as close to a Butterfield moment as we've seen thus far. and the expected attempts to discredit her are pretty pathetic. but I'm worried about her, although if something bad happened, there wouldn't be any doubt about where to look.

Thanks Allen. You spelled it out.
It helped me feel better watching Biden's press conference today on NATO.

Fern, Biden is essentially powerless in this process, not being TFF. I really do think that the right people are certainly on it.

Agree, TC. Garland et al are doing this right, and part of that tactic is to not show your hand.

Her security detail better NOT be the Secret Service.
