The Walls May Finally Be Closing In On Donald J. Trump

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

A DC lawyer emailed me shortly after the 11th Circuit panel handed down its decision in the Mar-a-Lago case: “Wow. Complete and total rejection of everything the district court did.”

IANAL, but I do not see the MAL ruling as any kind of game changer. Most of Mr. Trump’s crimes were committed in plain sight: almost as though he literally did shoot someone on 5th Ave. The question has never been proving them, but instead rather there was the political will to act upon them. I get the impression that AG Garland is finally inching toward that conclusion.

Looks like Donnie forgot to stay in his lane. Or, to use a perhaps more apropos metaphor, looks like he forgot to stay in his sandbox and stick to playing with Gary Busey, Kanye and his grandkids.

It does feel as if the tide is finally turning. That will make the upcoming shitshow in Congress even more outrageous. This is gonna be fun!

IRS Audits Of Comey And McCabe Were Legit Random

Oh, OK. Two high-level, Trump despised DOJ officials randomly audited.

Overall I agree, but, to borrow Bruce Willis’ words from Die Hard, ‘The Chinese Communist Party are big bad perpetrators and they are here to stay!’.


These guys are going to be around for the foreseeable future.

Die Hard is the best. So glad Christmas is coming so I can settle in and watch this holiday classic again.

I think it is the 3rd best action film of all time. My ranking is:

  1. North by Northwest
  2. The Prisoner of Zenda
  3. Die Hard

Yeah, right. Whatever happened to responsible governmental authorities avoiding the appearance of impropriety?
