Got me wondering - does anyone want to venture a prediction regarding the first subpoena or set of subpoenas that will come out of the Democrat-led House in 2019? If the possibilities were graphed out and each possibility represented by a dot, it would look like a swarm of mosquitoes. By what criteria do they decide which one to swat at first? On the one hand, they're not going to (at least I don't THINK they're going to) come right out and try to subpoena Trump to the stand and rip him apart. But on the other hand, if they get bogged down with small fish - like say, Alexander Taylor, former director for Cambridge Analytica, it could take decades to get around to the main culprits, since it looks like there are literally hundreds - if not thousands - of such minor enablers and possible co-conspirators.
So ... who or what do people here expect to be the object of the House's first subpoena(s)?
Well, unrelated NOW, but when Foreign Involvement becomes an accepted fact, the defenses will claim these brave souls misappropriated, or abused, or flat out stole in order to subtly invite investigations, sort of a Trojan Horse crime to let agents into the inner workings of criminal activity they dared not reveal out loud.That total does not count any congressional inquiries, nor does it include any other inquiries into other administration officials unrelated to Russia.
OR-
Your honor, in the fzzce of the treason, the corruption, the alienation of allies, ant the long term effects on the economy, my client's tiny, little, forgivable mistake is hardly worth taking the court's time. My client pleads small fish in a big, stinky, cesspit of crime, and we'll just let ourselves out. Thank you.
