Just occurred to me that it’s a good thing Jack Smith was actually at a basketball game that day and they could prove it during the hearing because they were all gearing up to feast on the headline for weeks if not years. The headline was all they were after anyway.

At a time when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction. But not Jack Smith. Kudos to him for continuing to be a much needed voice of clarity.

This is absolutely correct, but I worry that "truth and reconciliation" will sound too foreign to Americans who have long been allergic to truth and/or reconciliation. I'd just say "we're finally going to hold people who broke the law and violated the Constitution accountable for their crimes"

Post from Libertarian Party NH saying:

We openly support the assassination of basically every elected

But if you don't have the balls to do that then you should probably vote

It's quoting Dagoth Chud who wrote:

It's funny how the New Hampshire libertarian thing has just devolved into

NYT has now independently corroborated all the major allegations against Susan Collins in the ProPublica report, including that investigators were prepared to move against her and then Trump intervened to shut it down. This put Trump in a position of exceptional and extortionate leverage over her.

The inquiry was closed last year because senior bureau officials questioned the veracity of a campaign donor’s account, according to current and former officials.
