I’m not sure if this is supposed to be reassuring, but…
NEW YORK — Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D) has asked his investigations chief to oversee the ongoing probe into former president Donald Trump and his business practices, a day after the abrupt resignations of two veteran attorneys who had been leading the case.
Susan Hoffinger, also an experienced litigator and recent addition to Bragg’s executive team, will captain what has been described as a squad of about 25 lawyers, paralegals and analysts. Over more than three years, the group has pored through millions of records relating to Trump and operations at the Trump Organization, his family-run company, focusing most recently on whether assets were illegally overvalued to secure better terms on loans and insurance rates, and undervalued to get tax breaks.
This is good news. I was listening to a report on the leaving of the two main prosecutors. It is assumed the new DA had cold feet after getting blowback on the case. They want to move forward and may have been ready to indict. But the DA did not want to and wanted to pull back. So they quit. I hope the heck after all this the former guy doesn’t weasel out of consequences for his actions again. I have never seen someone so able to duck responsibility and punishment like he can. It is like an evil superpower.

MDavis: It crosses the road to get laid, of course. Only the hoomins have managed to separate fun from reproducing, altho some sub-hoomins called Republicans have tried to eliminate the fun part.

Ding, ding, ding, it’s a winner! Happens (happened?) for reals, when certain rivers flood, although I’m not sure what climate change has done to that annual event in the last decade or so.

BDR; typical hoomin behavior. Men trying to confuse the “posse” to get laid.
