A criminal investigation into former President Donald Trump’s attempts to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia is ramping up as prosecutors are set to seek subpoenas for documents and witnesses related to their investigation of the former president.
This is a companion discussion topic for the original entry at https://talkingpointsmemo.com/?p=1363338
What is most striking to me about this story is another story also on TPM’s page about Georgia Governor Kemp grovelling to Trump. Or to put another way, there is no honor among sleazebags.
On the one hand Kemp is kissing Trump’s ass encouraging Trump to run for president and on the other he is part of a course of action to put Trump in jail.
Just a reminder what you do not need with a Republican for a friend.

Miscellany. She knows from personal experience.

prosecutors are likely to rely heavily on subpoenas
I take this as a good sign. Until earlier this week it was not completely clear that Willis would or could pursue Trump.
The would is now clearer.

I assumed that was why he chose them. It fits inasmuch as they did.

What am I not getting about the maths here? If Biden got 7,058,909 more votes than Trump, and even if GA gave Trump their 16 EV, Trump would still lose. Are we just not hearing about Georgia type calls to other states?

GOP Sen. Marsha Blackburn on Fox Business: “Neanderthals are hunter-gatherers, they’re protectors of their family, they are resilient, they’re resourceful, they tend to their own. So, I think Joe Biden needs to rethink what he is saying.”
Fine. Tossing the covid restrictions is something that only a FUCKING IDIOT LIKE YOU MARSHA BLACKBURN would do. More better? You like?

Tha’ts a very good educated guess. I think that’s likely as hell.
ETA - it just occurred to me that the MFWWNBN may have a personal thing about Stacey Abrams and that’s why Georgia. Just a thought.

This should be one of the clearest cases. It’s in plain view.
I liken Trump’s legal post-POTUS life to be akin to that of …a snowflake…a snowball…a snowdrift…an avalanche.
And remember the Trump Bluster (for example, Trump greeted the news of the tax info being handed over as something he expected and desired).
Trump will posture the same exterior whether it’s five months before his legal demise or two weeks

Marsha knows that Neanderthals rejected Jesus, and that’s why there aren’t any full blooded Neanderthals walking around.

He wanted to flip one state, hoping he could then, with one victory in hand, contrive to do the same elsewhere.
For various reasons, he thought Georgia would be relatively easy to flip.

You flatter the beauty school dropout.
Her IQ would have to quadruple for her to an idiot.
She’s also tweeted that if we liked the way the 2020 elections were run that we’d love HR 1.
She’s the Tennessee Queen of the Self-Own.
