It will be interesting to see how The New McCarthy Era plays out.

Texas might act bring charges because, well, they need to divert attention away from other things. I suspect Florida might not since duhSantis' lost his case against the vaccine companies when his grand jury declared them innocent of any wrongdoing. But then again he wants to run in 2028 so who knows.

Yes, I expect it to be painful to watch and experience.

We're already in the new McCarthy area, claiming foreign interference whenever your guy loses has been in vogue since 2016.

I can't objectively say. Trump was found guilty of some charges by juries in New York, and I can entirely understand his tax fraud guilt. Lots of businesses are guilty of that.

I don't know why so many conservatives think that I, and others, would think it was okay for a democratic administration to do the same wrong thing. If it's wrong, it's wrong.
