The US Attorney has no experience in criminal prosecution. If you can only get 14 out of 23 grand jurors to approve an indictment, you are in trouble.
One screw up after another and I see humiliation coming for DOJ with this indictment.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.
This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.
All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.
