    Well yeah because she’s threatening to talk and they can’t kill her because they already killed Jeff. Two is a pattern.

      I mean… Do you really think they care? The optics are dogshit for anyone with a brain but they keep making it worse anyway. I have zero doubts that they care about making a pattern or people noticing a pattern. They haven’t cared one iota for how stupidly and nakedly transparent anything else they have done is.

      I ont think they care about patterns. My guess is that she will get pardoned - nothing she hands over is credible and she disappears when she is overseas somewhere.

      Well, they’ll pardon her first. Way too expensive to kill someone in prison who is being watched much more intently

        I doubt she can go very far. Other countries will surely want to prosecute her for crimes on their land. That or she will accidentally fall from a balcony.

    What in the serious fuck!? They are letting the madam of child prostitutes go free… She should be locked up for life for the amount of children she betrayed.

    Even mentioning a pardon or an appeal is the most ridiculous conflict of interest I have ever seen. Fuck Trump and his supporters!

    I mean, yeah, duh - who doesn’t know they’re just negotiating the list of names she’ll drop? It’ll likely be Trump’s equivalent to Saddam Hussein’s 1979 Ba’ath Party Purge

    I think the supreme court will release her. She’s asking them to toss the conviction based on the previous plea deal not long after meeting with a known “troubleshooter”.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if he pardons people on the list after he extorts them. Any sketchy way to make a buck or get favors, that guy will do it.
