I don’t think I could ever get tired of seeing Donald Trump get arrested. From the look of things, I won’t have to wait much longer to have my appetite sated. The disgraced ex-president has been given four days by Special Counsel Jack Smith to appear in front of a Washington DC grand jury before it throws the book at him for his leading role in the January 6, 2021 coup attempt. Most likely, he will be indicted on some of the most serious possible federal charges before the end of next week. And that will queue up Fulton County, Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis to have Trump arrested for his role in trying to steal her state’s Electoral College votes from Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
Willis is probably going to indict a half dozen or more people related to the plot. The Atlanta Journal Constitution reports that the Georgia GOP has already hemorrhaged over a half a million dollars in the first half of this year defending its own officers in the investigation. The Michigan GOP is essentially broke with less than 1oo grand left in the bank, and now NBC News reports that they’re completely fucked.
Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel announced Tuesday that she has filed charges against 16 people who signed paperwork falsely claiming that President Donald Trump had won the 2020 election as part of a scheme to overturn the results…
…The 16 people being charged in Michigan allegedly met in the basement of the state’s Republican Party headquarters and signed multiple certificates claiming they were “the duly elected and qualified electors for president and vice president of the United States of America for the state of Michigan,” Nessel said in recorded remarks…
…The 16 individuals include Michigan GOP Co-Chair Meshawn Maddock and state Republican National Committeewoman Kathy Berden.
This is called “the chickens coming home to roost,” and I am so here for it.
I don’t know how it will all shake out. Maybe all the deserving people go to jail, or maybe Trump is elected president and rounds us all up into camps. Everything is on line in the upcoming year, but at least the system stood up for itself and made a real effort to hold people accountable. If our country is going in the crapper, at least it’s going down fighting, and that’s all I can ask.

Trump is toast. He could further be indicted in MI and maybe AZ too. He cannot escape. The boa constrictor has started to envelop and there’s no squirming out.
