Kevin's speech was a yawn.

Ps - SC just hired 2 hardball lawyers to prosecute congress crittets. There were posts about this yesterday.
MagickMuffin
(18,362 posts)21. Indeed, that's what I'm referring to
One of the prosecutors (they specialize in congressional misdeeds) is gonna get the insurrectionist. There is a lot of paper trails to follow.
I think the insurrectionist think now they have power they are magically protected. I certainly hope the magic is all in their heads.
{{{ JACK SMITH has added two longtime associates of the Justice Department to his team; Raymond Hulser, former chief of the DOJ's public integrity section & David Harbach.
Each specialize in public corruption and together they will lead the DOJ investigation of congressional members. Raymond Hulser and David Harbach
" Together they will lead the DOJ investigation of Congressional Members" }}}
Go Jack, Raymond and David!

(18,362 posts)23. Yep, I heard Barack when Hakeem got started. He's on a roll
May he continue on the path of righteousnesses! Hakeem is definitely fun to watch and listen to!

(23,840 posts)17. When Jeffries mentioned Mar-A-Lardo
the boos from repugs sure got loud. How dare you say something negative about Der orange Fuhrer.
Them protecting him the way they do will lead to a HUGE BLUE WAVE in 2024.
