Speaking of which, do you think the Feds will nail Sheng Thao? Local Contra Costa County politicians Gayle Bishop and Joe Canciamilla didn't do any dirtier and they got convicted and served time.



*I handled a civil case many years ago that Joe represented the other side on and I liked him.

not super up on that case, but I don't think they would put all the energy into the case if there was not something there ? she is small potatoes from a political sense, not like Omar who is a bigger fish and might be gone after politically

But the biggest fishes of all being Trump and numerous members of his family. Like Nixon, Trump will have to resign before the end of his term so that President Vance can blanket pardon him. Trump cannot take a chance on the effectiveness of a self pardon because its legality has never been tested.
