Little Markie Has a Sad (On His Journey to Prison)

A federal appeals court on Monday ruled that former Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows cannot move charges related to efforts to overturn the 2020 election in Georgia to federal court.
...
Circuit Chief Judge William Pryor, who was appointed by President George W. Bush, wrote in Monday’s 35-page ruling that the law “does not apply to former federal officers, and even if it did, the events giving rise to this criminal action were not related to Meadows’s official duties.”

Basically, committing crimes was not within the scope of the duties of a presidential chief of staff.

And neither was it for his boss, which should give the TOFF something to worry about.
