Vogel's hearings and/or trial are the ones that should be televised, with close-ups of all frog-marching by law enforcement and a blurring of the defendant's mug so as not to make him a celebrity.

The courts must drive home the price to be paid by psycho sychophants of Trump even if the courts have been unable to grab the Big Lamprey* himself. The contrast in the court management of Vogel's case and Big Lamprey's might serve as a deterrent to some of the other overly zealous who keep seeking to be heroes and martyrs for the maga cause. And as we see law enforcement dealing with a maga, let's have a brave reporter ask Trump how much he enjoys watching the badges (the ones he claims to love) "escort" one of his idolaters. (* Lamprey are slime producers.)

Seriously, what is with these zealots who see following sociopaths as heroic? President Biden works with 25 kids who stammer and Donald Trump consistently throws his supporters under the bus. What gives? But then there are zealots all over the world who like nothing better than to follow "leaders" who throw them under the bus. I don't get it, but I certainly don't want to be gotten.
