Actually, Ben, unless you're a criminal attorney, no one really cares what your opinion is

Those of us with that background, who have worked witness tampering cases, can offer opinions that matter

That's how expertise works—something your political ideology valued, before Trump
PS/ On that note, I once saw someone arrested—who was standing right in front of me having a conversation with me when it happened—for allegedly *raising his goddamn eyebrow* at a witness in a misdemeanor case

Now compare that to everything Trump has said and done to Yovanovitch
PS2/ Funny how conservatives love to trot out the legally irrelevant fact that Zelensky—forced by geopolitical realities—said he didn't feel pressured by Trump, but don't want to talk at all about the fact that Yovanovitch testified under oath today that Trump had intimidated her
PS3/ My point is, conservatives have been maddeningly incoherent on criminal justice since the 1970s

It's almost like they don't know anything about how our system of justice works, and just want black and brown and poor white people jailed and rich people living high on the hog
