Trump Triple Threat

If last week was a bad week for President Biden, this week was a bad week for Donald Trump. 

The Supreme Court - proving that, while it is sometimes foolish, it is not insane - rejected Trump's claim of executive privilege in his effort to keep the House January 6 select committee from obtaining his presidential documents.  Among the first such documents made public: a plan to seize voting machines to keep votes from being counted and to keep Biden's victory from being certified by Congress.  More revelations are sure to follow.

More people close to Trump have been drawn into the spider's web of the plot to subvert democracy.  Rudolph Giuliani was subpoenaed by the committee to answer for charges - which are very credible I might add - that we was greatly involved in the plot to seat Trump electors in seven states Biden carried in the 2020 election.  Trump's own daughter, Ivanka, can expect a subpoena herself, as the select committee wants to hear from her and has invited her to show up. Since she likely won't - she's a whole lot smarter than her brother Eric, who did cooperate - the committee will have no choice to go from asking her to come in and tell what she knows to ordering her to.

Meanwhile, in Georgia, the Fulton County District Attorney's office has called for a grand jury to help investigate charges that Trump attempted to interfere in the counting of votes in Georgia  to prevent a Biden win there.  District Attorney Fani Willis explained in a letter that she "has received information indicating a reasonable probability that the State of Georgia’s administration of elections in 2020, including the State’s election of the President of the United States, was subject to possible criminal disruptions."

Criminal disruptions, like, Trump asking Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to "find" the exact number of votes Trump needed to carry Georgia. 

Hey, Trump - you "winning" yet?  You must be sick and tired of winning!

Our democracy hasn't been safeguarded yet.  But all of this news has made me feel a little better about the future.
