This ought to be interesting. MN"s very effective and well respected top federal fraud prosecutor--who is one of many federal attorneys who quit when asked by the Trump DOH to not to investigate the ICE shooting of Renee Good and instead investigate her and her family--has just joined Don Lemons defense team.

Prosecuting attorneys forego earnings potential, if they make that their career. The better ones are certainly accepting a more modest income, to do something they value greatly.

We all lose, whenever talented prosecutors resign, when they are asked to do things they consider to be unethical.

I just finished the show A Small Light tonight. Some fluff added in here and there, but all in all it was a good series. Some of you should watch it, it might help you get a grip.

I won't disagree with that. I'll add that things are not trending well towards long-term habitat persistence for our species as well. But #47 has definitely spun things up a whole bunch, to put it mildly.
