1. He can always early-vote, use drop box, mail...!

[intrepidity]

2. But, you see, he won't, or can't

I think he knows that.

3. Arrested for what? The special prosecutor will still be investigating if he should be charged

7. What makes you think the appointment of a special prosecutor

will delay the investigation or prosecution in the slightest? He'll just pick up from the existing investigation; he doesn't have to start over.

8. It will definitely delay it

The new guy has to learn where we're at now, and be briefed on everything prier. Maybe only a little bit, or maybe significantly. No one knows yet.

10. OK, so maybe it takes a couple of weeks to review the files.

But even if DoJ kept the case, nothing can happen in the stolen documents matter until the 11th Circuit decides the special master issue, because those documents can't be used as evidence until they are released to the DOJ. Even though that's on an expedited schedule there probably won't be a decision for several weeks. There will be no significant difference in the progress of the overall investigations.

4. Nope.

5. never happen

[getagrip_already]

6. if it isn't in the next 6 months, it won't happen until 2025......

We will be too embroiled in the election season come summer, with primaries not far off. And since the gop controls their primary schedule, they can move up an early one until whenever they and a friendly state legislature want.

9. I don't know if he'll be indicted

but it won't be 10 days before an election.

11. Let the arrest come the day AFTER the election is called for Biden - Nov 6, 2024
