I subscribe to the idea that one day, perhaps soon, the DOJ is going to announce a bunch of indictments that will be more than anyone ever expected. Why? Because the idea that so many people will get away with crimes against this country, without even a slap on the wrist, is both preposterous and as damaging to our democracy as anything these criminals have done.

Like the Comey letter & the phone call with Zelenskiy, Trump's post-2020 election ploy to send DOJ letters to the States (stating that there was evidence of Democratic fraud) was designed to create the appearance that his election opponent was being investigated. Trump or Putin knew that appearances were as useful as facts, as he said about the letter to Georgia, 'Just leave it to me & the Republicans in Congress' to exploit the false picture the letter would present.

As for McGonigal, it's more than tempting to wonder what he was doing as an FBI boss in his field of cyber-ops while the US was being bushwacked in a cyber-war of which even the FBI allegedly had little or no clue. Too much coincidence to avoid a thorough probe of that.
