Donald Trump will use his 2nd term to bury the full extent of Special Counsel Smith's findings and shield his accomplices. I wrote to AG Garland urging him to act NOW: drop the charges against Nauta & De Oliveira, release the report, and let the truth see the light of day. Time is running out.

Corruption fuels authoritarian dictatorships, human rights abuses, & global instability—fighting it should be at the core of US foreign policy. As a senior member of the US Helsinki Commission, that’s why I reintroduced the Combating Global Corruption Act today to hold corrupt actors accountable.

I have let my position be known to the Biden administration and others of influence that Merrick Garland act immediately to have the special counsel’s report on the classified documents case released to the public. It can be done but it will take immediate action by the DOJ.Trust/transparency!NOW

Which “first” family hasn’t learned political ( or even non political) decorum?

Yes, he shouldn’t be on the court, but if he resigns Trump will probably appoint a Cannon fool and Florida who is much younger and much more of a supplicant well, maybe the same amount of a supplicant

AG Garland needs to dismiss case against 2 remaining defendants in Trump classified records case and then release Smiths report on January 19. Trumps’ AG will dismiss cases but not the report. ACT NOW!

@Cnn.com Scott Jennings is frequently beyond reality in his outrageous MAGA zeal. He needs to be replaced with a logical Republican, not a crazed flame thrower.

Last night, I sat next to a man who desperately wanted attention. How did he try to get that attention? By claiming the reason for the wildfires in LA is that California firefighters aren’t white enough.
