I like Jamie Raskin

...and not just because he's from where I grew up in my state.

Scoop: Jamie Raskin tells us he believes there will be accountability for Jan 6 and that DOJ is handling the case similarly to mob investigations and prosecutions, working their way to the top. Raskin says he has faith in Garland to get the job done.

If he ever gets his Federalist Society ass in gear I will apologize gladly and I hope I do but I sincerely doubt he will do anything meaningful to save our democracy. He needs to go and get a non-Federalist AG in to do the job right and ASAP. He is part of the problem, not the solution.

He is a true mensch.

Of all the elected representatives we have, he , Adam Schiff, and Sheldon Whitehouse are my faves. And Katie porter, too.

And of course, Bernie!
