The "agreement", of course, is Trump letting Adams skate on bribery charges in exchange for doing Trump's bidding. It's corruption, pure and simple.
Those who decry prosecuting Adams as "lawfare" are, frankly, full of shit. The charges are well supported, as can be shown by the fact that a rock-ribbed Republican prosecutor refused to dismiss them.
And this:
And this.

We are stretching “rock ribbed”. New York Times? FBI opinion column.
ReplyDeleteShe's a member of the Federalist Society and clerked for Scalia. A lawyer doesn't have much more solid conservative credentials.
DeleteWas that a short enough explanation for you? Or do you want the Plan B response?
Sufficient but I smell a rat.
DeleteTrump is like a bull in a China shop right now, but I saw this and had to wonder about a preemptive pardon and if that is not the same thing.
ReplyDeleteNot the same by any stretch of the imagination. Dr. Fauci and Gen. Milley weren't going things for Biden, they were retired and he was just protecting them.
DeleteTrump, on the other hand, wants Adams to go along with his dragnet and this dismissal (without prejudice) is a way of holding that over his head should he fail to cooperate.
Adams is being offered criminal time or future ownership of his life.
ReplyDeleteThe latter means he has to do unethical or illegal acts as part of
the dance for the new owner. Either way not a winning case
for him.
Those that decide to not be a part of that are clean. As some
author said, the table is rigged and the only way to win is to
not play. The one that plays as the same problem as Adams,
they are a complicit part of the same extortion. HE/She is
then owned.
Eck!
