The story is becoming a lot clearer, and it's becoming more evident who was involved. But I'm not sure there is strong evidence of a crime. These people are all lawyers, and they were in positions of authority to make investigations. In ordinary times, this blatant abuse of power would drive people out of office and out of public life. But these are not ordinary times. There is a political war, and they are going to fight Trump in every way they possibly can.
We always hear about bringing these people to justice, but I don't think it's that easy. There needs to be some sort of initial case that can be used as a wedge to cut this thing open, but so far, I don't see it.

In ordinary times, this blatant abuse of power would drive people out of office and out of public life. In "ordinary times", for the last 50 years, that only applied to Republicans, or maybe a Democrat or two who was not getting with the program.
That was because the progressive Media controlled the narrative, who was suitable as a candidate, and what was a scandal, and what was not.

(President Trump and his supporters are the Resistance. His opponents are the Reactionaries.)

There is a political warThe democrats are fighting like hell. Started with fake investigations, wiretaps, indictments against innocent men, leaks, impeachment, and now riots in the streets.
And what is the right doing? Trump tweets but nobody is indicted, nobody is fired, nobody is even disciplined. The senate won't even say rioting is bad. Trump is all alone in this fight.
