"logically" it should not be, since it was part of the same "settlement", but they're being quiet about it. One of the cases now before the judges again will be relevant to it.
Since it was an “addendum” to the settlement, one thinks it would be covered by the two rulings. It’s not getting the same press for the exact reason it was buried in the first place. “Look at the slush fund.” “Don’t pay attention to the lifetime tax immunity for the entire corrupt family.”
"Not a moral line, obviously. Let’s not get carried away. This is still the same party that has spent years treating corruption as a loyalty program and constitutional vandalism as a branding exercise. But every now and then, even the most obedient caucus looks up from the buffet table, sees the chandelier swaying, smells the electrical fire, and realizes the insurance adjuster is going to have questions.
Does the greatest pressure to table this for now come from consideration of how bad it will look when the judge who has reopened the case finds the DOJ and Trump guilty of colluding to defraud the court?
Hoping. To live long enough to read all these compiled into a newer book. The “Let’s not get carried away ..” grabbed me . Hilarious , this reality , TBC.
Normalized into expectancy with a near yawn, yes we’re tired , the backlogs of not only Supreme Court’s decisions has reach gagging levels for starters. Intended.
Come on Blue Wave we have the Royal American cleanup in isle 45 AND 47 to get after ya know!

The IRS immunity card is still on the table, right ?

Apparently, it still is. They’re only talking about the money, not about the immunity.
They are still trying to jam it through.
But we're not talking about the Epstein files, are we? And the beat goes on......
There is an independent reporter suing for release of the balance of the Epstein files. So that issue at least has a path to a judge.

Made me LOL!
Don’t hold your breath. John Roberts & his 5 pals can still save & insulate their hero’s bold idea!
Exactly what I was thinking.

"Republicans in Congress... have spent years perfecting the difficult art of looking concerned while doing absolutely nothing."
I call that The Susan Collins School of Concern. She talks the talk then falls down when she tries to walk. They've learned from her example.
BTW, do we know who the Republicans are who berated Blanche, or exactly what was said?
I'm thinking Trump's screwing of Massie, Cassidy, et al. has blasted like a fog horn through the GOP.
My, my... Will wonders never cease? 😏
[p.s. Great writing, Mary, especially the encouragement for how to make the system work. Thank you!]
