Slightly different approach this morning: [View all]

Whilst showering at the ungodly hour of 4:45 AM, I was considering when these indictments might come down and I thought of a passage from Jules Verne’s The Mysterious Island wherein a pirate ship threatens the castaways/colonists. All seems lost, but then:

“The colonists’ situation was desperate. Their retreat was discovered. They could not oppose any obstacle to these missiles, nor protect the stone, which flew in splinters around them. There was nothing to be done but to take refuge in the upper passage of Granite House, and leave their dwelling to be devastated, when a deep roar was heard, followed by frightful cries!

Cyrus Harding and his companions rushed to one of the windows—

The brig, irresistibly raised on a sort of water-spout, had just split in
two, and in less than ten seconds she was swallowed up with all her criminal crew!”

I’m awaiting….with bated breath, the swallowing of this criminal crew. . I believe it’s going to be a cascade of indictments, but I’m often mistaken….🙏
