MSNBC just said it's a single 41 count indictment. Previous reporting said it was 10 indictments. That was based on a screengrab that outlets used as rush-to-air unchecked copypasta.

CNN - I alphabetized it...

    Speculative questions/observations.

    It seems obvious to me that as these trials go on that Republicans are going to use increasingly brazenly corrupt means to dodge/alter/fire D.A.s/pardon crimes.

    Is this in conjunction with various state legislator shenanigans and districting bullshit i.e. how Alabama and Ohio (and also potentially Tennessee depending on an on-going lawsuit) are going to ignore re-draw orders to wait out the clock and use the psychotically gerrymandered maps for 2024 enough to get the U.S. to actual cool-zone balkanization discussions or are even things this openly corrupt and in plain sight not enough to get the ball rolling?

    I know (well guess) that ultimately US balkanization rests on either capital deciding that the state of things are too untenable for its profit interests and/or the evangelical base in the states to start trying to express state-captured power openly, but I guess I'm asking do you think the continually escalating corruption is enough to get liberals to actually push back in some concrete, non-performative way.

    I guess I'm wondering what level of overt corruption sparks these conversations in the mainstream (or even if that discourse is possible).

      openly corrupt and in plain sight

      If the GOP does its political corruption and crimes in public - libs can be incredibly passive about it. It would have been laughable in fiction in 2014 before Trump became a candidate. But Trump showed that in reality it's actually true. An example is that Trump's Georgia phone call happened in January, 2021. The libs were shocked but January 6th happened just a few days later.

      Steve Bannon turned out to be dead right. The phone call became just another event in the Trump tsunami of shit. It's counter-intuitive but Trump flooded the zone with shit and it was actually less bad for him. The libs simply do not give a fuck that Biden and the dems have passed zero federal legislation to protect elections. And the DC dems haven't even made empty promises to in the future!

      Libs are weirdly passive about the lack of federal action on that just as they are about the death of Roe and the mealy-mouthed DC dem promises to codify it into law... sometime. I guess blue state dems really believe they can ignore what's happening in the red states and won't reach them. Red state dems must turn up the denial to 11. I know we make fun of such lib idiocy all the time but I really don't get it.
