No mystery what we're seeing here:
-Illegally withholding spending/nullifying contracts
-Purges of law enforcement and prosecutors
-Taking bribes for lenient treatment while threatening enemies with persecution
-Pardoning violent/paramilitary allies
-Granting vast powers to an unelected billionaire

Another week, another Friday night massacre. Interim US Attorney Ed Martin -- an election denialist and champion of pardons for J6 offenders-- sends letter arriving just before 5 pm firing dozens of prosecutors who worked on the January 6 prosecutions. Breathtaking corruption and pettiness.
