Yesterday, nothing.
Last night, nothing.
This morning, nothing.

2. I'm thinking they are reluctant to charge a sitting senator for political activity, even this

Course that’s just a guess on my part, it could be that Lindsey is singing like a little canary

3. I have seen zero evidence to change my belief

that sitting members of Congress are immune from prosecution.

Lyndsey will never flip on Trump.

Even Mark Meadows hasn't flipped, IMO. I would be alerted on for saying this about anyone other than Trump, but it would not surprise me if Trump threatened Meadows and his family.

5. I imagine Trump on the phone to all of these people threatening in every way he can

I don’t think there’s anybody who believes he wouldn’t do that

8. Trump threatens everyone and their families publicly.

The meaningful threats are the things he does not have to say. The GOP invested in him, they let him in on their plans, their motives, and their family secrets.

If he goes down, and feels the GOP has not saved him, he will spill all the beans.

Grab your popcorn and candy, the show is about to get started.

We've only started the beginning credits.

We need consequences for their democratic hatred of this country. Calling another state's Secretary of State to put the heat on him to change votes...he should have had to at least resign 2.5 years ago.

14. I have no doubt that the russians and the saudis have gotten dirt on the people who won't flip

that is so bad, and so alarming, and probably so criminal that those who haven't flipped CAN'T, for fear of exposure.

We, here on DU, for the most part have always believed that there is a good reason Jeffrey Epstein didn't make it to trial.

15. We need to flush out the traitors and move our country forward

To a more perfect union!

If this means indictments and trials for the next ten years, that's better than traitors selling us out to forgein or domestic terrorists.

The GOP has zero shame, so lawful consequences need to be made for breaking the law by seditious conspiracy to overturn/ overthrow the government.

Our grandchildren will thank us for it.
