A lot of things happened. Here are some of the things. This is TPM’s Morning Memo.

Mark Pomerantz, one of the two leading prosecutors who quit Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s stalled investigation into the Trump Organization, asserted in his Feb. 23 resignation letter (which was obtained by multiple outlets) that the former president is undoubtedly guilty of “numerous felony violations” despite Bragg’s decision not to pursue an indictment against him.

Bragg, who had reportedly decided against an indictment because he was skeptical the prosecutors could have Baked Ham convicted.

So since you’re skeptical, why not make certain he can’t be convicted by not trying. That’ll show 'em!

(Please tell me the investigation really is continuing to its logical conclusion instead.)

Paid off. Barely waited what, a month after taking office to kill it.

That’s barely enough time to figure out where the coffee machine is and which buttons do what on it in the office, let alone thoroughly review a massive and complex financial case involving thousands of manhours and millions of documents to determine that it’s a waste of time.

No, Shame on the crooked DA. He basically campaigned on a promise to throughly prosecute Trump, this ain’t on the voters.

So, who is assigned to investigate Bragg’s actions? Bragg’s finances? Bragg’s communications with anyone from within the Trump world?

So is there currently any investigation into why Bragg did this? I have to say I’m not buying the nonsense about him not thinking he can win.

If I go to Idaho can I go to stores and at the register give them slips of paper and say it’s ‘pre-green’ money?

If Clarence Thomas goes missing indefinitely, could he just be replaced on the bench with a cardboard cutout? Would anyone notice any difference?

That’ll be on the State AG or the feds in town… And nothing the SDNY loves more than a crooked official in a bribery scandal, so they’ve probably been on this since the resignations.

They just used a mannequin all those years on the bench, that’s why it didn’t talk.
