Aileen Cannon has all but ensured that Republican voters won't learn whether Donald Trump sold out America's security before they choose to make him their party's nominee.

Trump has -- must have!! -- seen the evidence about his mob that DOJ intends to use at trial. And his response is a blubbering effort to wish his mob away. 

The reason Rudy Giuliani was not charged for soliciting election disinformation from a known Russian agent is that the Attorney General of the United States set up a system that separated the investigation of that Russian agent from the investigation of Rudy, all while channeling whatever disinformation Rudy obtained from Derkach (or Zlochevsky) into the investigation of Joe Biden's son.

In citing the precedents against filming a trial, DOJ happened to cite the precedents pertaining to terrorists and his own seditionists.

Of around 150 documents Joseph Ziegler included in a spreadsheet of foreign influence documents used in the Hunter Biden investigation, almost 10% were from the laptop.

After Trump's lawyers tried to stall both his federal trials simultaneously, Judge Aileen Cannon declined to delay the stolen document trial in Florida.

Bill Barr's DOJ shut down a bribery investigation into Mykola Zlochevsky in December 2019. And then days later, on January 3, 2020, he set up a way to get a claim that Mykola Zlochevsky had bribed Joe Biden injected into the investigation of Hunter Biden.

Even as Republicans continue to struggle to do their most basic job -- fund government -- Jim Jordan continues to chase conspiracy theories about Hunter Biden's dick pics.

Jonathan Karl's description of the far right retribution metaphors Trump is deploying is far more useful than NYT and WaPo forgetful predictions of retribution in the future.
