that symbolically, they would announce indictments on 1/6/23.

I say that it's unrealistic because the special prosecutor is really just getting started. I know that the Special Committee and the DOJ have been working for quite some time now, but I'm guessing that when the Federal charges come, they'll all come at the same time. I think 17 more days for the special prosecutor to tie everything together might be asking too much.

The Georgia charges... well, I think those might come first.

No doubt many of them would like to see TFG removed from the playing field before primary events get going. They just don't want to be the ones to do it or have to take a stand on it in any way.

He seems to have faith and hope, I don't.

Apart from the fact the real work doesn’t operate on the schedule of a tv series.

I said several times here that I anticipated indictments to start in mid-February. But I have great respect for Tribe, and thinking about it, I suspect he is correct.
