This might be the most nakedly corrupt document I’ve seen on DOJ letterhead — and I wrote a history of Watergate!
“You are directed … to dismiss the pending charges in United States v. Adams, No. 24 Cr. 556 (SDNY)…. The Justice Department has reached this conclusion without assessing the strength of the evidence or the legal theories on which the case is based”

One reason the press is being very cautious about talking about a constitutional crisis is that the top Democrats in the country are talking about high grocery prices. Try to imagine it from their perspective: how do they report on a "crisis" that even the opposition doesn't seem to acknowledge?
I really don't understand the ambiguity here. Trump deputized the richest man on the planet to unilaterally cut off congressionally-funded and congressionally-authorized agencies. A power which neither of them can wield legitimately. That was the beginning of the constitutional crisis right there.

I posted the text from this on Twitter, and it has been incredibly well received. I don’t have the time right now to post the long thread required again, but here’s a link. It’s a brilliant piece, and really hits the nail on the proverbial head.

Is anyone surprised?
Fun fact — when asked whether he would lower the price of groceries while in office, Trump’s answer was:

“I don't think so. Look, they got them up. I'd like to bring them down. It's hard to bring things down once they're up. You know, it's very hard.”

Congratulations to the “price of eggs” idiots.
