Investigation would soon be winding down. However, there are signs to the contrary. Axios is reporting that, quote, members of Robert Muellers team are reaching out to former Republican National Committee Staff who were familiar with the digital campaign.

Those people are going to be either pushed out of their positions or decide that its just not worth it. the safety or their family isnt worth it. you know, remember what a second trump administration would look like compared to the first. the first trump administration, he brought in a whole bunch of establishment figures. john kelley, rex tillerson, people like that, and across the cabinet. then he found himself frustrated by their adherence to norms. the second time around, i dont think youre ...

Yes, look. obviously increasingly radicalizing militant anti-democratic faction in the republican party. yes, taking over local county parties, conducting a ridiculous audit in arizona attempting to take power away from elected officials they dont trust but in the end, came down to it after the 2020 election, enough of the, you know, establishment officials held strong against basically the hoards at the door. again, im haunted by the question. what happens if they dont? what happens if enough o...
