Great explainer on the Comey and va prosecutor
The facts are complicated, but here’s a summary of what appears to have happened based on the filings and today’s hearing:
NEWS: During a hearing in federal court in VA, prosecutors confirmed that the operative indictment in the case against James Comey was never shown to or voted on by the entire grand jury before it was presented in open court.
Defense counsel argued that’s a complete bar to further prosecution

The Epstein case against Trump is as if everyone is looking at a 500 piece puzzle with 2 pieces missing and pretending they can't make out the picture for certain.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

If you are standing in opposition of MAGA’s fascist agenda then you are branded a radical fanatic standing in their way. Now, they are permitted (per their politics, religion, beliefs, and “morality”) to “own”, dehumanize, disenfranchise, harm, jail and murder.

Thank you, Senator Booker
I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

Major mistake to televise this event. The American Fascist Trump for sure thought that Zelenskyy would cave to the extortion deal laid out before him…Zelenskyy 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 hero
I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

Casual whitewashing. Nothing to see here, folks.
“U.S. officials said this week that military leaders were initially told they would have just days to scour their websites going back decades for stories on gains in the military by women and minorities or stories celebrating cultural heritage.”

Ah, the 1930s Germany frame.
But in the post-reconstruction era, America had Jim Crow, the resegregation of the federal workforce, and deadly pogroms against black people in the South.
We’ve been here before. It’s just it didn’t happen to white people.
Where do yall think Germany learned from?

Interesting question: if you were living in Germany in the ‘30s in which year would you call it and emigrate?
