Stakes as high as they come.

Asset. “Agent” gives him way too much credit. 😑

The White House is encouraging this because it’s distracting from all the other bullshit. Either way, they’ll eventually blame one (or both) of them for the suffering of American people, and Teflon Don will yet again make his magat base think he’s a genius.

Let me step back and explain this a bit. I'm a habeas expert. A habeas petition can only be filed in the federal district where the petitioner is at the moment of filing.

4/ British kings used taxation to reward loyalty and punish dissent.

Gabbard and Ratcliffe committed perjury.
