It's no coincidence that the first case in which Roberts exercised these unprecedented "shadow docket" powers involved climate change policy. Please always remember that his efforts to damage the planet should be as much a part of his legacy as his attacks on democracy.
Please remember that New York Knicks star OG Anunoby is an immigrant, while Karl-Anthony Towns & Jordan Clarkson are the children of immigrants. The same is true for multiple bench players.
They represent the America that Trump wants to destroy. Don't let him claim their mantle.
Jokes aside, TMZ coming to DC is a big counterintelligence win too. The fewer scandalous secrets, the less likely it is that these bozos can be blackmailed by a foreign intel service. Bw people like Swalwell & Gonzales & the closeted MAGA warriors, imagine what is going on today.
This is an indicator of weakness on both sides. Bolton was not willing to take the risk of going to trial, even w/ a favorable jury pool. More so, it's reflective of challenges facing DOJ w/ using highly classified info at trial, esp. on how USG knew the Iranians got his emails.
Because the screenwriters like to constantly fuck with us, I give you the new prosecutor in the Brennan/Russia conspiracy case.
It does not appear that either party was operating from a position of strength, but especially DOJ. Blanche knows Trump wanted Bolton's scalp and is letting him off relatively easy compared to similar cases.
If you want to understand why Trump named a political hack with no intelligence experience to be the Acting DNI, this is your answer.
