    Immunity this high up on the food chain doesn’t feel right to me. Maybe if they really don’t think they can nail Trump without him. Maybe. But this guy was one of the most instrumental in the coup. I would have felt a lot better if it was a much reduced sentence but still jail time. Same with Powell.

      Yeah, sigh. That said, while I don’t love it, if this is what it takes to take the orange bastard down for good, I’m all for it. It’s just too important.

      While trump is clearly the target, the fact that such key figures can still escape justice is a clear display of the two tiered justice system. Wtf America, we knew you were gross but come on, they ATTEMPTED A COUP.

      Someone help me out, is Meadows still exposed in the GA case? I’m pretty sure he is. He’s not immune to everything being fired at him, right?

        He is, assuming he isn’t already finishing a plea deal with Willis. Meadows 100% deserves to go away for life with his co-conspirators, but at least he will be 80%+ of the nails in Trump’s federal coffin with this immunity deal.

    Here’s the thing: I don’t think I can believe a word he says because I believe he’d say anything to save his own skin, but I also believe he wouldn’t have to lie to save his own skin and that he has plenty to dish to bury Trump, which is how he got full immunity.

    I also don’t care I he’s lying if it lands Trump in jail. But I know he doesn’t have to.
