1. What's Tr**p's Play Here?...

I think he's in a no-win situation. I'm thinking that the only thing he could do is take the 5th - and even that is not a good option.

2. Excellent question!!

15. Media Attention.

3. Lol ... I really don't think 'the government' would announce that

Seems like a story made-up for Faux Nooz. They'll say 'Trump will accept Proud Boys defense subpoena!!1! What a good guy, right!?!'.

And then he either actually won't accept it, or he won't show up to court if he does.

And Faux will never mention it again.

7. Substitute "the court" for "the government" and it makes more sense. Nt

9. Even then, the court would only (maybe) 'announce' it if the subpoena were actually accepted

They wouldn't make a public statement of "the court expects it will be accepted" ahead of the fact.

10. It doesn't say that

Biggs is the one who “expects” the announcement, but the expected announcement is framed as: TFG has agreed to accept service of the subpoena.

No word on if anyone expected TFG to comply with the subpoena…

5. The question i have is

Can this no good fucker, PICK and CHOOSE what questions to answer? I'm thinking that if he answers ONE question, he can no longer take the fifth?

6. He'll plead the filth

8. The same Evan Corcoran who's looking at being charged with obstruction.

He's already been called to testify before the Grand Jury by Smith. IMHO it's unbrick first him to still be representing Trump due to conflict of interest.

11. I think Evan Corcoran already has more than a handful with his own defense.

Seems unlikely he'd be accepting any other work, his own license may be in jeopardy pretty soon.

12. Just Saw That... Thank You !

14. What does that mean? He'll testify for the defense?
