That might help with the contempt charge, but the Democrats have DOJ until 2024 and that's where the real legal jeopardy will come from. If the plan is to run it out until 2022 and hope Congress flips so that any investigation can be shut down, Meadows should have stonewalled from day one.

DOJ hasn't done anything on it's own with regard to Jan 6 (at least not with government officials). Only the cases referred from the House Committee

That chess piece doesn't get moved until there's enough smoke to prove to a judge that there may be a fire. Corroborating existing claims by election officials of a criminal conspiracy aimed at pressuring them into manipulate election outcomes is a step in that direction. Why take that step if you don't mean to deal, and transfer blame upward?

It could be a blunder, but that's always the question when looking at a seemingly strange move. My intuition tells me that I must be missing something. Even grandmasters blunder, but a team of this caliber should have had the time to think this one over and proceed carefully.
 
Yep, Fauci saying “get your booster” won’t make any difference to those most resistant, Trump may.
Hopefully for some it will, and obviously every little bit helps. However, he was met with some boos from supporters at one of his rallies over the summer when he mentioned having gotten the vaccine, so I imagine there’s no convincing some of them.

We'll learn some things about which direction the causal arrow runs from how this plays out.

I wouldn't know since I don't frequent such websites, but is it possible that Trump and Fox were only reflecting the views of the lunatic fringe of the conservative movement back at them? If so, I'm not sure if that level of cynicism makes it better or worse.

As I stop and think about it, the click-based nature of our media means that the heaviest consumers of that media have much more of a voice in the content that gets put out there. This is disturbing because the most enduring finding in the political behavior literature is that the most engaged citizens are weird relative to the rest of us.

Perhaps polarization is better thought of as a self-perpetuating feedback loop than as a product of the interaction of gerrymandering and changes in the mass media.
 


Thats like 2 non dreadful stances hes taken in a week, what is going on, the end of the world is coming.

Has he got new advisors ? Are we about to see a more normal version of Trump run in 2024 ? blatantly not but still quite nice to see him not pander to anti vaxxers and right wing grifters given they typically love Trump
