Witness intimidation seems the much more natural state of this regime
Here’s the situation in the Twin Cities:
Random Bovino-style tear-gassing: Way down
Relentless persecution of immigrants: Unchanged
Thuggish violence against observers: Way up

i got teargassed by NIST reference chemical irritant
So, my liberal buds, my progressive pals: you know how you're beginning to realize that ICE (perhaps the whole of DHS?) is structured to allow abuses, riddled with career psychopaths, utterly beyond saving as an institution?
Now, consider, in the spirit of inquiry: the entire federal government

we should proceed with prosecutions with the presumption that the president cannot pardon crimes he ordered to occur while simultaneously advancing court-packing legislation.
It's so cool how we just accept that federal accountability is dead and the president will just pardon any federal crimes as easily as he pardoned everyone for January 6, and we just live with this fact instead of tearing down the rest of the White House around him.
Philidelphia DA Larry Krasner warns ICE: If an agent commits crimes in Philly, I will charge you. You will be arrested. You will stand trial, and you will be convicted in state or federal court and you will do your time. Donald Trump can't pardon you for a state court conviction.

Being an incorrigible skirt-chaser even when married and possible low-grade sexual harasser? Bad! Not the same as being a pedophile!
Being close with industry lobbyists? Bad! Not the same as taking bribes!
The flattening of grey areas with outright evil is unironically part of why we got Trump.

I do not think Anderson Cooper is wealthy enough on his own to bankroll something with the legal and investigative heft of 60 Minutes.
But it would be pretty interesting if he called up a few friends and tried.
