they had to restart the entire criminal prosecution of the poisoning of the children of Flint because the Republicans had so screwed up the investigation while they were in power

Always have to wonder about people who blab who should know better than to do so. Like even if I were in some legal trouble, I would know that talking was a bad idea. That's like the first thing. I might still blab, because I'm a very dumb person, but that's why I'm not a lawyer, let alone a federal prosecutor.

Aahh fuck. I was happy at the news that the federal prosecutors are taking this seriously, but hadn't thought about the whole jumping the gun thing.

That said, it's not exactly a yooge shockeroo suprise that sedition is on the table. It may be that Sherwin is a mole whose aim is to bork the prosecution - in which case Garland needs to reassign him to prosecuting illegal double-parking.

This asshole was appointed by William Barr. What else would we expect from him?

If by "mole", you mean a holdover from the Trump administration, I guess you could call him that.

Why do I get the feeling that video of him helping to break into the Capitol is about to surface?

Don't blame journalists for journalising a dismissed and soon to be disbarred federal prosecutor.

Wonder whether he did this on purpose? I mean, the man knows that if you poison the water before the cases have even been heard, you severely mess with those cases. Is he helping his bros out perhaps?
