But first, for structural safety concerns, have they weighed Steve Bannon. Before hauling him into the courtroom.

And so it begins. I hope Vance and James start announcing multiple investigations against everyone of T****'s toadies. Offer a few reduction in sentence deals for details on the head grifter in chief.

OT: But the effect is too good.

“Noting that the talks within Vance’s office were “preliminary,” the Post reported that state investigators were exploring whether the same criminal conduct alleged against Bannon federally could be charged in state court.”

You can expect a knock on the door anytime now.

Nail the sloppy POS already! He engineered the violent insurrection against US democracy more than any other individual. And he’s proud of his fascist handiwork.

And then hosed him off before letting him inside. Who knows what germs, bacteria, or virus could be hitchin’ a free ride on that unwashed man.

If Vance concludes he can’t charge Bannon, it’s going to make it a lot harder for Bannon to take the Fifth in the case against the remaining defendants. Maybe there’s some other state where he’d face criminal liability, but he’s going to have to name it, I think, which is not a thing a criminal wants to do.

Oh Hell they figured away to charge them for the ride. Nothing, I mean nothing is free with these scumbags.

I have a feeling that some of those pardons are going to wind up being far more trouble than they were ever worth.
