Adam Isbitsky @a-is.bsky.social · 02/08/2026All because this is a cult-like administration that has to bow to their ruthless, spineless, vile, mean-spirited, and not smart leader who runs with mob-style vindictiveness. It didn’t have to be this way. 020
Adam Isbitsky @a-is.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Some judges have noted strange or illegal behavior in grand jury proceedings causing cases to be thrown out and federal lawyers reprimanded. It used to be impossible to prove selective or vindictive prosecution, but this administration is losing those claims. 120
Adam Isbitsky @a-is.bsky.social · 02/08/2026The DOJ used to have an enormous success rate. Now federal grand juries are routinely not even returning a true bill to bring criminal cases because the prosecutors are being asked to bring frivolous cases. 100
Adam Isbitsky @a-is.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Trump is running up against his archenemy: the truth. And he’s losing. He can say whatever he wants on “truth” social, but he can’t prosecute enemies in court based on lies. 100
