Among those reportedly seeking or exploring claims are former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio, MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, former Trump adviser Michael Caputo, and former Trump attorney Michael Cohen. Former Republican congressman George Santos has also been identified as a prospective applicant.

Lindell's proof/evidence always turned into discount codes for his crappy products.

(24,653 posts)...I'm trying to remember the exact details. I'm not sure if it was Blanche or a Republican Congressman but the gist of it was "When it comes to weaponization of the DOJ, no one has been on the receiving end of that as much as the president and his family..."
And I went "AHA, they just opened the door for Grampy, Don Jr, and Eric to take a "taste."
Of course, that was expected ANYWAY, but it was one more example of the Republicans in power thinking the American public is stupid, and setting the stage for what would have been a BIG taste, maybe the whole thing divided 3 ways, with the biggest slice going to Grampy.
