1. The more I look at these Trump election contests the more apparent they're all linked to the criminal conspiracy to impair the @USPS. Question for me: Do the lawyers know the the criminal purpose sufficiently to have incurred criminal liability?
2. For Rudy & Sidney Powell, I think it likely. For run-of-the-mill local counsel, absent more proof, I would think not. But Rudy & Powell likely will be seeking pardons that may have been part of their deal. And with them, Trump will dig himself a deeper hole and the ongoing
3. nature of the conspiracy will bring Rudy and Grisham a taste of my #Lazarus Theory that says you cannot successfully pardon an on-going conspiracy because the continued agreement plus a single overt act in furtherance of the unlawful purpose done by any conspirator
4. brings to life a brand-new crime not subject to the pardon. What they need is immunity. A pardon won't work and they will all be subject to charges. Flynn may have already blown his pardon by showing why he was drummed-out for lack of impulse control. @tribelaw @neal_katyal
