Buttigieg as Transportation Secretary. I don't know what qualifies him but...whatever.

 

 

 

  

Another cabinet pick. Jennifer Granholm for Department of Energy.

He's not Mrs. Mitch McConnell, the current holder of the position. So already an upgrade!

I shudder to think of what kind of nest of corruption Buttigieg is going find once he takes over.

 

The Trump Organization must turn over documents to New York Attorney General Letitia James as related to the fraud case in progress. To which I say, BWAHAHAHAHA!!!

Which is why I've been saying that NYC is coming for Trump.

Although AG James' case is a civil, not criminal one, if she finds any evidence of criminal activity (of which there is a good chance), she can present that evidence to DA Vance, who is conducting a criminal investigation.

 

Also, this is yet another reason that I roll my eyes at talk about him running in 2024. Aside from the obvious aspect that had he had any true intention of running in four years, he wouldn't be trying so hard to cling to the office now (he'd simply pull a Vlad, go away while installing someone to do his bidding, while trying to stage a comeback but all indications point to someone who is desperately trying to stave off debt ( remember that $450 million?) and more lawsuits and possible jail time.

Happily, but I wonder what the plan will be? How do you imprison people (hoping Ivanka and some of the others go down as well) that have a ton of intelligence info. Do they just put them in solitary? Even then it seems like there is always going to be a security flaw (guards, warden). With any luck we'll find out shortly.

So much of this feels like a day late and a dollar short, but ok, I guess.

Did he actually read any of those intelligence reports? Does informal adviser Ivanka and low-level clearance Jared have access to meaningful intelligence?

It is not just Trump and his spawn involved, in some cases, it is also family members, like some of his siblings, as well as a cousin.

SDNY operates at a different level than the feds, who were/are toothless.

If SDNY can put John "The Teflon Don" (a man Trump wishes he were), Bernie Madoff and El Chapo behind bars, they have the capacity to jail Trump. It is a question of to what degree that would be.

She's right, but watch for the Beltway to clutch their pearls. Looks like a stimulus deal may finally happen today, albeit for only part of what we'll want in January - knock on wood.
