When Michael Foran started these updates, he thought they'd be about 15 minutes. The Friday update, done last night, ran for almost two hours, at which point his phone battery ran out.
A month's subscription to his Substack is well worth the price of admission.

Not more charges, more allegations. Which if they lead to charges, would prevent discussion of the quality of the previous evidence in the media. Tactical? That would be an ecumenical matter.
