I thought the practically synchronized timing of (1) the closing of those grand jury proceedings (and the resulting/nearly immediate resignation of the two attorneys who had invested so much time in the case’s investigation), and (2) the invasion of Ukraine was not coincidental. The news barely covered (1), buried as it was under the rumble of Russia’s invading tankers. That TrumPutin mutual admiration and alliance has never been more suspicious!

One of the articles (https://www.nytimes.com/2022/03/05/nyregion/trump-investigation-manhattan-da-alvin-bragg.html) about Bragg's take over from Vance makes some of the turmoil around the iDJiT investigation appear to be an interoffice kerfuffle.

Pamela, we can assume that new DA provided the information to the NY Times, hence, it is biased to make it look like the new DA's perspective.

The truth is, two career lawyers were in the process of closing out indictments in a grand jury process that needed NO interruption whatsoever.

The DA's keebosh on the case smells so bad I can hardly breathe.
