But Trump's motives are not political. He is a convicted felon orchestrating a cover up of more of his own crimes. He is using political power to coerce others to assist in the cover up. I think the distinction is important.
It is critically important to preserve the evidentiary record! If Bondi has most of them, I hope she is smart enough not to delete them, even if Trump directs her to do so.
If Trump pardons GM, it is critical that this case moves forward.
Can several states with known victims - together or separately - bring criminal charges against abusers using state law?
Am I wishful thinking? If a state prosecutor sees this post, please comment.
The point is that prosecutions of the men who abused and aided and abetted sex trafficking of underage girls via Epstein-Maxwell should be prosecuted, even if Maxwell is pardoned.
Wouldn't firing Comey allow her now to comment on things related to the Epstein affair? I am sure there are many constraints on what she can say, but still are there also not restraints lifted?
It's an interesting scenario that has devastating implications for the MAGA crowd. Should Trump pardon Maxwell which is in the wind it would further implicate his role with the whole Epstein situation. He couldn't really pursue such an incredibly damning action, could he????? HAHAHAHA, more likely, will he???!!!
Is Comey’s firing “Working a Corruption of Blood” to quote a prohibition in our Constitution? Or, maybe a “Bill of Attainder”? The folks who carry copies of that Constitution around do not seem to bother to read it!
Certainly including the immensely hypocritical Mike Johnson who manages, with each passing month under Trump to set the Speakership bar lower and lower.
Maurene Comey's by far greatest sin was having the wrong father for the hater in chief. Trump and Blondi never had a grudge that they felt could be settled by anything less than a bonfire of vengeance.
Count on Trump and Blondi to always pick the Low Road. If there a choice between cheap and tawdry and honorable and correct, the safe bet is door A. And you just know that Blanche is going to offer Maxwell some serious inducement to whitewash Trump and rope in Biden. They are allowing themselves to be compared to the shenanigans in some banana republic. Where oh where are the GOP grown-ups?
G.Maxwell has a thumb drive, Jack Smith has a thumb drive, M. Comey has a thumb drive ---they must break some rules to expose this authoritarian regime. Garland/Biden --too soft when they had power to step-up. #47 & allies will corrupt everything they please -they know "Power is Power"
But we are to believe Trump isn't named in the Epstein or Maxell files. Trump is the embodiment of who shouldn't be in the White House.
I’d love to know where we go from here to resume the Rule of Law

And Trump and assiciates seem to realize his executive immunity will not help him in this case.

I worry for her health and well being.

Did you expect anything less than a kangaroo court from a wanna be king?
I believe the people uncovered the truth in this case, bee-atches. Twenty years.

Aided immensely by being unburdened by scruples or respect for historical precedent.
This is not a justice department. It is a jokestice department.
Ssshhhhh..... Don't tell Mike Johnson. He thinks every time he goes to Mar a Lago that it is the Sistine Chapel.
You mean the fact that she is James Comey's daughter is not justification for her getting fired? I'm surprised he didn't fire her in OF 1.0.
" . . acting out of bald political motivations is a gross perversion of the criminal justice system." Donald Trump is a gross perversion of humanity.
Lord of the Lies Trump, AG Bondi race to silence Maxwell before Congressional investigators can subpoena her sworn testimony:
