  • I love this. I tuned in to a little Sean Hannity on the radio on my drive home Friday and heard him rail against the selection of Weiss multiple times, while throwing out vague bullet points about why he’s unacceptable.

    My first reaction was that they’re laying the groundwork for when this investigation comes up with nothing, or some really boring crimes (like firearms charges? The Republicans are about gun control now?) and they have to lay the blame on someone so the conspiracy machine can keep pumping out outrage.

    Knowing this is a guy they wanted for the job until he started doing it makes it even more delicious, but as we know when Republican’s beliefs come up against reality it’s the reality that gives, so they’ll have no problem ignoring that this was even ever a thing.







  • The graph charting donations received vs when he was indicted and arraigned was one of the more interesting parts of the article to me. I knew that to his supporters the legal news was proof of the deep state and nothing would turn them off of him, but I didn’t realize what good press all the news about it would be. I assume the other bumps in the chart are other, smaller news items about him.
