Justice is blooming in the record high winds buffeting the country from coast to coast. Can you smell it? It's accountability.
Powerful political high winds are increasing for Trump and cronies as Georga state officials move forward towards filing criminal charges.
The special grand jury that was appointed to investigate charges released a full report to Fulton County District Attorney Fanni Willis today.
What does that mean?
A big step towards Trump being criminally indicted.
It contains a summary and recommendations of indictments for those involved in trying to overturn Georgia's voters will.
Willis then must present evidence to another, regular grand jury that has the authority to indict.
Meanwhile.
Mark Jan. 24th down on your political calendar.
That's the day a judge will hold a hearing to allow relevant parties - including the Fulton County Attorney's office that advised the jury, news outlets, and those investigated - to present their case as to whether or not the grand jury's report should be made publicly available.
One way or the other it sounds like the report will eventually be made available to the public even if it has retractions.
Another point to be aware of. If the judge chooses to keep the report private until the case is closed, the public won't know the results for months, or even years.
Meanwhile.
Stormy weather ahead after today's announcement that a lawsuit filed by advice columnist E. Jean Carroll against the former president is going to get real embarrassing,
U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan ruled that Trump failed to reply with his testimony, as required, to explain why the 34-page excerpt should not be released to the public.
Carroll has accused Trump of sexually assaulting her in the 1990s in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room. With the passage of a New York law last November victims are now able to sue over sexual abuse dating back decades.
As usual Trump's lawyer Alina Habba played the dummy and claimed she didn't know there was a time period to turn in his deposition. It's uncertain what the judge will rule and when.
As it stands, I can almost smell accountability on every breeze. It's a refreshing scent this winter day.
