They knew what they were doing was illegal (Meadows, Guliani, Eastman, Flynn et al)! Corrupt intent! How do we know that they knew that what they were doing was illegal?

I love to write good stories. I love it. I can’t see any great stories due to the state of the union and the disease and division. Media cannot even stay on message. They jump from one chaos to another. Merrick Garland needs to say something really...
