Still all quiet on the Meadows front.

Garland sure knows how to keep people guessing.

1. That's bad news for Meadows.

Garland sure knows how to keep Meadows sweating.

2. I think...

... this is a bad sign. If these people are above the law, they will keep breaking the law.

3. Only a handful of activists and bloggers are "guessing".

Most people are going on with their lives.

4. No guesswork, just intelligent prosecution,

Delaying Meadows indictment is the smart strategic move:

https://www.emptywheel.net/2022/02/07/why-to-delay-a-mark-meadows-indictment-bannon-is-using-his-contempt-prosecution-to-monitor-the-ongoing-january-6-investigation/

If Meadows was indicted now for contempt, he could use the discovery process to get information for himself and other defendants about other potential charges, as Bannon is doing (but Meadows, as WH COS, has far more exposure, and much more evidence subject to discovery).

Delaying indictment for contempt when, in all likelihood, Meadows will eventually receive a superseding, more serious felony indictment, is a very smart move on Garland’s/DOJ’s part.

That requires no guesswork at all.

5. That's what I have always believed. I have posted about it more than once.

But I'm still guessing, I don't know.

I hope.
