This or similar should be the opening phrase of any article about Trump and the military.

completly unhinged, even by Trump standards.
Have you seen the videos of Mitch McConnell back in the Senate? Do you think he should resign because of his health condition?

It was a disappointment to a lot of Republicans. So that's just—well, Sleepy Joe gave pardons to everybody. He gave them to Fauci. He gave them to this. But you mean I'm not allowed to give them, but Sleepy Joe's allowed to give them? This ain't gonna be much of a story. Here we are doing this. You haven't asked me one fucking positive question. All of this. What about this? What about that? What about that? What about this? All negative. Why are you devoting all this time to the White House? You know how I do, I do that out of my back pocket. I pay for a lot of it, but I fix it because the White House should look like that. It shouldn’t look like—if you would have stood in that balcony and looked at that wall, half the wall was falling. It's actually dangerous. People are walking under, crap was falling off it all the time. Every time it rained, it was leaking, horrible. Now it's perfect, and I would say that I should be given credit for fixing the White House because I'm also doing very well with the war. I'm doing very well with another war that we already won, Venezuela. Do you notice you haven't asked me a question about Venezuela?

We did earlier.

This guy got a law degree from Harvard and became a White House Fellow reporting to Egil Fucking Krogh (head of the Plumbers). After Watergate he spent an entire lifetime in the insurance industry before deciding to redeem Richard Nixon's legacy, publishing a hackish book with (of course) Regnery

Please, for the love of God, can the media stop calling random cranks who write fan fiction about their personal heroes in the past "historians."
Geoff Shepard, a former Nixon aide turned Watergate historian and revisionist, recently gave a two-hour presentation at Justice Department headquarters that laid out his theory that the deep state took Nixon down. The title of his 78-page slide deck: “Watergate As Lawfare.”

Eric Schmitt was warned about the Jack Smith texts. He used them anyway.
As Republicans on Capitol Hill try to figure out how Eric Schmitt’s bombshell fell apart so embarrassingly, it turns out he was warned that the texts were unvetted.

Yep. They are likely to obtain convictions as well, but in the past these charges primarily result in small fines (and then almost certain deportation should ICE pursue it). Here's a representative sample of outcomes from previous federal prosecutions. The most common outcome is a sub-$500 fine.
A table showing name, immigration status, nationality, election(s), and notes.

Here are some examples in the chart: 
- Rosemarie Angelika Harris, Lawful Permanent Resident, Germany, 2016, Pled guilty and was fined $75.
- Isac Dakuyo,	Lawful Permanent Resident,	Burkina Faso,	2016,	Charges dropped after completing a pretrial diversion program.
- Hyo Suk George	Lawful Permanent Resident	South Korea	2008, 2010, 2016	Registered to vote after a town council member suggested she do so. Pled guilty and was fined $100.
- Merious Jean	Lawful Permanent Resident	Haiti	2016	 Pled guilty and was fined $125.
- Juan Francisco Landeros-Mireles	Lawful Permanent Resident	Mexico	2012, 2016	Sentence to 2 years probation and $1,200 fine
- Nebi Ademi	Lawful Permanent Resident	Macedonia	2016	Pled guilty and was fined $443.
- Jean Gobeil	Lawful Permanent Resident	Canada	2012	Given 90-day suspended sentence

This aligns exactly with what we know about noncitizen voting; it is extremely rare (9 noncitizen votes in MN out of 3,253,920 in the 2024 election, or 0.0002%), and when it occurs it’s most often green card holders who were mistakenly told they could vote (none of these people are undocumented).

Worth emphasizing that there are several layers of nuts here. If Smith had gone to an NBA game in Atlanta, that wouldn’t indicate he’d met with Willis. (Why would anyone go to the trouble, rather than just having a phone call?) And if he had met with Willis… that wouldn’t be any sort of scandal.
