If anyone is wondering, and without getting into too much detail, I am a 60ish, curmudgeonly grandpa, IT guy, veteran, and part-time internet political junkie who was weaned on Bartcop's blog yonder a century ago, and if you know who Bartcop was and grokked his style, then we'll get along just fine.

It they recall Mark Kelly to active duty the next Democrat President needs to do the same for Mike Flynn. A real traitor who should be court-martialed.

Pediatricians say vaccines do not cause autism. A bear-eating heroin addict who fantasizes about sucking his own semen out of his lovers' orifices says they do. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

To be clear, Skandalakis assigned this case to himself. And I disagree with his assessment.
Anyone with this kind of bullshit take of that infamous "find me 11,780 votes" call to Sec. of State Raffensperger was never going to prosecute Trump, Meadows, & the other defendants:

It was amazing the deep concern and national threat scenarios our vaunted media gleaned from Biden’s footwear, yet Trump’s nightly social media posting outright racism and death threats against Democrats barely cause them to raise their eyebrows.

The fact that only 3 (by my count) Republican members of Congress have spoken out about the Witkoff situation shows how thoroughly corrupted and compromised the entire party has become from top to bottom. None of this is about just Trump - it is the entire political party.

The entire world can clearly see that Putin owns Steve Witkoff and yet Witkoff is the one that Trump wants leading the negotiations on a peace deal. If Putin owns Witkoff, and Trump doesn’t care, that means Putin owns Trump - either directly, by proxy, or by stupidity.

They are building a private army that will not be beholden to the constitution or US law, but to a corrupt despot-wannabe convicted felon who is a central figure in a scandalous child sex ring, who was rightly impeached twice for his corruption and his treason, and is quite likely a Russian asset. 🫤
ICE’s spending on weaponry is up more than 600 percent over last year, dwarfing not only its spending during the Biden administration but also during Trump’s first term.
