Haven't seen this in NYT yet.

That sure is a lot of subpoenas.

Call me a pessimist but I've seen little that shows me the DOJ and the Dems are no more than simply Paper Tigers rattling sabres. Folding like cheap wrinkled suits in the end each time.

I mean, not for nothing, but as I pass by my early 50s, the former does take longer than it used to.
But the sunshine aye shall light the sky,
As round and round we run;
And the truth shall ever come uppermost,
And justice shall be done.

Neon, I have no trouble calling you a pessimist. 😁 I don’t share your pessimism, howsomever, because I’m an internal optimist even when I’m pessimistic on the outside.

The appointment of Jack Smith has changed my external tune to match the one I’m singing in my heart. “We” got this, even if we never see the outcome. How old was daddy drumpf when he died? The thought of tfg ending like that, with dementia and in diapers, facing down prosecutors and losing, warms my heart.

I missed this one from yesterday.
NYT reports: Dan Scavino, Trump’s former social media guru, “appeared in front of a grand jury in Federal District Court in Washington” on Thursday.

How potentially significant is Scavino’s testimony?

Oh.

It’s partly why I’m wondering if both grand juries met today and there was a little bouncing around. Cipollone and Philbin overlapped for about 2.5 hours today and they clearly weren’t testifying simultaneously to one grand jury.

And now Philbin has departed along with lawyer Michael Purpura (right) https://politico.com/news/2022/12/0
To recap: Former Trump White House counsel Pat Cipollone spent 6 hours with the grand jury. His deputy Pat Philbin spent 4 hours with the grand jury.
