That guy is wearing a Wedge Brewing t-shirt. The Wedge is an excellent local brewery here in Asheville. I used to be roommates with one of their head brewers back in college, and that guy’s brother is the lead man for Future Islands.
I don’t usually click on the vids. Glad I clicked on this one!
I love Dan Goldman. He has been put on the Weaponization sub-committee to make Jordan’s life hell, and he has embraced that role wholeheartedly. Jordan’s ability to repeat “what about” really fast as he disappears down a rabbit hole doesn’t help him against a skilled prosecutor.
Gym Jordan wheeled out his “whistleblowers” today. Two former FBI agents who had -after thorough investigation - had their security clearances revoked and were fired. Under questioning, Dan Goldman got them both to admit that they were being paid by Kash Patel, including this wonderful exchange with one of them:
REP GOLDMAN: Did you receive any money from Kash Patel?
MR FRIEND: Yes he gave me a donation last November.
REP GOLDMAN: A donation? Are you a charitable organization?
Once again, daylight turns a right-wing issue into vapor.
I want these people to pay for their crimes, but their wealth and influence will likely prevent that so I guess I’m happy enough with these fuckers spending whatever’s left of their miserable lives paying lawyers and fighting court cases. Not really justice but if guys like Wasserman, Trump, Guliani etc dont have a second to relax ever again i guess that’s all we can hope for.
FWIW, Ty Cobb - Trump’s lawyer for the Mueller probe - was on TV this week saying that the documents case has Trump banged to rights on obstruction, and he’s going to jail.
Trump continues to make this ever more likely to be true by flapping his stupid bird mouth. During the infamous CNN rally town hall, he claimed vehemently that he chose to take the documents from DC to MAL and he declassified them before doing so. The second part is nonsense, but the first part is admitting to a crime in DC, so he can be prosecuted in DC, which is far, far worse for him that being prosecuted in Florida.
