From the cnn article at top of thread. Offices raided before the end of summer 2020.
Ok now I go back to making dinner
Dinner was good-pesto on whole wheat linguine. Yum.
Know what else is super delicious? These tasty morsels:
And why are they so tasty!?
This is why:
Lobbyists and PR flacks don’t benefit from attorney-client privilege if they aren’t acting on behalf of the legal team of the client. And they weren’t. As shown above.
I think this is the correct song for this moment in time. “Pardon me! (While I burn)”
🤣
P.s. the timing of this unsealing is pitch perfect for so many reasons but I will list the ones that first come to mind: 1) it’s post election so trumpers can’t yell about it impacting the election results 2) it’s right after another really gross pardon attempt (Flynn) which
has NOT yet been approved by the judge, and now looks even more corrupt AF in light of this new info out 3) it’s out well before Biden takes office and so this is still *Barr’s DoJ* in charge of the investigation, which means trumpers can’t yell that it is a politically motivated
investigation/(sand)WITCH HUNT. 4) it establishes a potential pattern of corruption around pardons, which should deter people (who have shame) from pursuing or *granting* pardons via corrupt means 5) crime fraud deliciousness drops while we are watching trumpian attorneys
crime-fraud their ways around the country with their election shenanigans.
In 2017, Heather Heyer was murdered by a white supremacist while peacefully protesting.
Nearly everyone, with the exception of Donald Trump, condemned her murderer.
Three long years later, Anthony Huber and Joseph Rosenbaum were murdered by Kyle Rittenhouse. They were protesting.
Elected republicans are celebrating Rittenhouse. Republican campaign donors helped get him bail.
THAT is the damage Donald Trump has done to our social fabric. He has emboldened the shameless. He has activated the worst of us. He has enabled the hateful.
Shame. Shame. Shame.
Under Donald Trump’s leadership, a thousand baby Stephen Millers bloomed.

“Paul James Kryscuk, 35, Liam Collins, 21, Jordan Duncan, 26, & Justin Wade Hermanson, 21, were charged via a superseding indictment justice.gov/usao-ednc/pr/g…
obtained in the Eastern District of North Carolina. Collins and Duncan are former Marines assigned previously to Camp Lejeune in Jacksonville, North Carolina.”
“The indictment alleges that Collins and Kryscuk were members of and made multiple posts on the “Iron March” forum, a gathering point for young neo-Nazis to organize and recruit for extremist organizations, until the forum was closed in late 2017. Collins and Kryscuk met through
Many of my fellow Democrats like to shit on @ProjectLincoln for their pasts as GOP rank & file/supporters/enablers.
I respect the hell out of @ProjectLincoln and this is why:
They are the dragons we need to help us burn down Trumpism. Together. Read this whole thread.
Now do you understand why Flint went without clean running water for so many years?
Michigan GOP did that.
To their own constituents.
Using emergency powers.
This is the first thing Big Gretch did after she became Governor, in case you are wondering why all the Michigan militia types hate her so much: freep.com/story/news/loc…
@onetoughnerd used emergency powers to “save money” on Flint water. The emergency manager he appointed switched the source of the water, which caused the damage to the pipes, and the lead poisoning. The cost? Countless kids harmed. And a $641M settlement.
and four counts of false claims in an indictment filed today in the Northern District of Alabama. Daigle was the CEO of a company based in Huntsville, Alabama, which served as a subcontractor on U.S. Department of Defense aviation contracts related to the war in Afghanistan.”
“According to the indictment, between 2013 and 2017, Daigle allegedly engaged in two fraudulent schemes that resulted in the submission of false claims to the U.S. Government. The first scheme involved the use of unqualified employees for government contracts. Daigle allegedly...
