Can someone share the outcome or how/why someone in his position came to oppose the release of a woman unlawfully convicted after serving 43 years and what the consequences were? Did police or prosecutors go to prison? Did she receive any compensation?
"He [Bailey] can definitely make stuff happen for purposes of the news cycle, even if that stuff inevitably flames out or gets enjoined by a federal court." Now, instead of wasting the money of Missouri's taxpayers, Bailey will be wasting the money of all taxpayers. If a Republican state AG is not liked by the fellow Republicans who've ruled MO for about 20 years you know that it'll be a shit show all around. Being the MO AG is a pipeline to D.C. as Hawley and Schmitt discovered. Only the best.
Learning these things one by one is infuriating enough but seeing them connected . . . ? The depth of the incompetence, the racism, the ignorance is overwhelming. Some Trump voters are claiming that they didn't vote for *this* but what they did vote for, or think they were voting for, was just as bad. I keep fantasizing Hercules cleaning out the filthy Augean stables. Could he maybe divert the Potomac to clean out the White House?
No words! This entire administration is like a bad TV soap opera only with far reaching consequences for the rest of us
From Best & Brightest to Huh? & Whatever you say, sir!

These people.
These idiots.
Internet clout rules the government.
Appreciate your reporting Liz, but fuck this shit.

I love that final image. It is one that has occurred to me as well.
Apparently Donald Trump - famous for failing upwards - can only find similar but less successful failures.
Our country has been turned into a kakistocracy. And a kleptocracy.
Babysitting to ensure Bongino doesn’t spill the Epstein beans?
FBI leadership needs leadership.
Three American flags? A patriot’s ellipsis after being eclipsed.
Yet another Trump appointee who has failed up.
