Re Adam’s and the election, I would like to think that this deal alone would make him more likely to lose the primary. But the problem is it’s really crowded and he’s the only one with decent name recognition

He’s not in yet and his name recognition cuts both ways.

He's a pretty good politician, though. I'm guessing he would do well in the primary.
Does the GOP have anything at all?

There’s been talk the last couple days of Adams switching parties.
But I don’t think they’re running anyone known.

Deals, compromises, and agreements in politics. I'll need time to process my emotions.

Usually this don't include threats of prosecution hanging over ones head like a sword of Damocles. Seems rather lawfarish to me.

wrote on 14 Feb 2025, 18:04 last edited by@jon-nyc I'm happy that you've found an inner conviction against lawfare, but you accidentally wrote it like the Trump admin invented some flimsy charges and threatened him with them. I know you wouldn't want to imply something that wasn't true, so you're welcome for the correction.

It depends on how one defines lawfare. At its most basic it strikes me that any use of the prosecutorial power for political purposes would qualify.

One could argue there’s a civil equivalent too.

Again, it's good that you've developed convictions against that sort of thing in politics.

Nice try. From the beginning I said the NY case against Trump was shit.

One might ask who in the previous administration Adams was pissing off. I don't really know enough about it to say.

Interesting to see the libtard deep staters who resigned rather than suspend criminal charges against Adams for political gain.
First one was Danielle Sassoon, a Trump appointee, career FedSoc member and a former clerk for Anthony Scalia.
Next up was Hagan Scotten. He did three combat tours as a Special Forces officer in Iraq where he was twice awarded the Bronze Star. He came home, went to HLS and then clerked for Chief Justice Roberts.
The closing line of his letter: “I expect you’ll find someone who is enough of a coward to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.”

I'm sure political realists who are capable of making nuanced choices, are happy to see anybody with rigid principles self-isolate from any mainstream movement.

Just read that before he clerked for Roberts, Scotten clerked for Kavanaugh when he was still on the court of appeals. He wouldn’t have made it to Roberts office without a direct and very strong recommendation from Kavanaugh. I hope that weasel Bove is paying attention.
