For a second time in a week, a federal grand jury in Virginia has refused to indict New York Attorney General Letitia James for alleged mortgage fraud, sources say.
Yeah, I wasn’t disagreeing. My point was that the norm was not getting an indictment on a grand jury was embarrassing and hurt someone’s career. This disincentivized prosecutors from repeatedly bringing a case to a Grand Jury. But Trump and his cronies don’t care, breaking the norm, and will keep pushing to get what they want.
That was the norm for the past century. The norm for centuries before that was that the King could fuck whoever he likes, metaphorically or literally, for any reason.

They’re bringing back old norms.
