"The charging document says that Broidy had direct access to President Trump, alleging that he used his high-level contacts “to orchestrate back-channel, unregistered campaigns to lobby the Administration and DOJ.”

Those roids must be bubbling now.

Several sources say Broidy’s initial reaction was, “Couldn’t Karma just give me COVID, instead?”

Of course he did. Let’s see…

  1. There is gambling in here? What a surprise.
  2. Susan Collins is very concerned.
  3. What is this Thursday?
  4. He was close to Trump and he’s being indicted?
  5. Wait. Financial person, Trump and indictment? Get out of here.
  6. That’ll be fun.
  7. Go ahead, take your time.

I really sometimes have wished Biden and the Dems generally could have simply run on GOP = traitors. But they have to be more granular. Biden MUST bring the hammer down though on international oligarchy. I’m afraid it will either take too long to be effective or get deprioritized / buried.

When Trump said “I think this was a blessing from God, that I caught it” he was talking to the evangelicals, not to his Hindi and Buddhist supporters.
