because of Covid-19 but that the Con intervened.
When the Con called him a rat we knew that was mob talk but if this is true, it's far worse than that.

1. Not that I doubt it but is there some proof he intervened?

I suspected it from the moment I heard the news but haven't seen anything confirming it.

3. A journalist asked the new press secretary this yesterday

Of course she had no answer

Donald Trump’s former lawyer and longtime fixer Michael Cohen will reportedly be released from federal prison to serve the remainder of his sentence in home confinement because of the coronavirus pandemic.

Cohen is currently locked up at FCI Otisville in New York after pleading guilty to numerous charges, including campaign finance fraud and lying to Congress. Cohen began serving his sentence last May and was scheduled to be released from prison in November 2021.

He will remain under quarantine for 14 days before he is released. Federal statistics show 14 inmates and seven staff members at the prison have tested positive for the coronavirus.

2. When Trump is rejected, expect the United States to become a hot war zone.

Because Trump is going to make sure everyone pays for not kissing his ring.

I do hope our 'shadow government' has made preparations for a tyrant being in charge and self destructing the country, especially with this dipshit.

5. Don't say never...

After all, the last 3 1/2 years should be proof enough that special preparations need to be in place.
