Its starting to dawn on me, how a couple of my MAGA relatives have been dealing with the news

about their fuhrer's onslaught of legal problems. THEYRE NOT LISTENING TO THE NEWS!
Now, mind you, the couple that I'm still on speaking terms with, aren't among the ones who are threatening to riot in the streets. But their hero's transgressions ARE causing them some misgivings.
And they have told me bluntly, that "I quit listening to the news, its too depressing."
It may spell trouble for Fox, but, more importantly, it may spell trouble for the Republican Party. If their constituents aren't watching the news, then their messaging is not getting out. If they can't get out their message, then those constituents are going to sit home on election day.
Anyway, that's what I have observed, and that's my prediction. Not a riot in the streets, which some leaders seem to be encouraging, but a general desertion of the voting booths.

I know that folks here are elated at the prospect of Bloated Tick behind bars, but ....

and believe me, I hate to present this possibility -- is this when we find out that he wrote himself a pardon??
He knew full well that the missing documents wouldn't go unnoticed. And he still refused to return them, even after DOJ officials talked to him and his lawyers about the boxes of documents in the basement that he still possessed.
He may be dimwitted; but he knows how to stay out of jail.
So, I want to hear the opinions -- can TFG pull out a 'Get Out of Jail Free' card??

Holy crap! Flooding in Death Valley??

It was not called 'Death Valley' because of dangerous floods! At least, not until now.

So the question is, why NOW??

We know that TFG took boxes of documents when he left the White House, and we know that many were marked 'Top Secret'. And we know that he returned most documents, but that he didn't return ALL of them.
What made the DOJ act now? And with a very high-profile RAID?
What may have happened recently, to make the DOJ suddenly fear for the safety of those Top Secret documents?
One recent event was the Saudi-Backed LIV Golf tournament. Was Treasonous Bastard overheard making a sales pitch?
Sure, just conjecture.
