Every Democrat in the country is paying very close attention to stories like Eileen Wang’s. They are panicking and getting hysterical, like a pink-haired gender studies major turning the corner and discovering Ben Shapiro giving a speech on campus. This helps us understand the unhinged things they’re saying, the increasing levels of violence, and the crazy ideas they are coming up with, like firing Virginia’s entire Supreme Court.

This is becoming much bigger even than Watergate, at least in its apparent scope. (There were 69 indictments and 48 convictions in the Watergate mess— but all related to each other and to the one alleged ‘crime.’)

Keep an eye on the indictments meter. Doomsters who hounded poor Pam Bondi last year with scathing “where are the arrests” memes owes her an apology. She was teeing all this up on the chopping block so that Todd Blanche could start dropping the axes as we approached the midterm elections.

……………………….

Under Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, the pace of resignations, indictments, and arrests is picking up speed.

Wang faces fines and potentially ten years in federal prison. But more importantly, as a convicted felon, she can no longer hold office or vote.

I mention this “local interest story” because it is part of the larger pattern of resignations, arrests, and indictments that I covered in more detail in Sunday’s C&C post. Here’s the summary, in case you missed it. First, just in the last three weeks:

April 14th — Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) resigns from Congress; he had been the Democrats’ leading candidate, it’s “great white hope” for California Governor.

April 20th — the Southern Poverty Law Center was indicted by a federal grand jury for bank fraud and secretly financing hate groups.

April 21st — Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-FL) resigns mid-campaign for her fourth term, with a pending Miami criminal case over $5 million in allegedly stolen covid disaster-relief funds (CNBC: “third House member to quit this month”).

April 28th — Dr. David Morens, longtime Fauci adviser, indicted by DOJ on covid-related charges.

May 4th — Michigan AG Dana Nessel files a 41-page criminal affidavit charging Fay Beydoun — a Gretchen Whitmer-appointed “nonprofit business leader” — with sixteen felonies for fraud and corruption around a $20 million state grant.

May 8th — Poul Thorsen, former CDC scientist and lead author of the foundational 2003 NEJM paper used for two decades to “disprove” the MMR-autism link, was extradited from Germany and arraigned in Atlanta on two counts of wire fraud and nine counts of money laundering; he’s being held without bail as a flight risk.

May 8th — Mass. State Rep. Christopher Flanagan (D-Dennis) was indicted on eight counts of wire fraud, one count of money laundering, one count of falsification of records, and three counts of filing false tax returns (~$40K, including a psychic).

May 11th — James Comey indicted by a federal grand jury for his moronic “86 47” seashell art project. (Also, yesterday, USA Today: “Comey says Trump DOJ may seek third indictment.”)

Last week — FBI raided Virginia State Sen. Louise Lucas (D) — “Virginia’s most powerful Democrat” and the “architect” of the failed $70M gerrymandering operation — along with her marijuana dispensary, as part of what Acting AG Todd Blanche confirms is an “ongoing criminal investigation.”

Yesterday — Arcadia (Greater LA) Mayor Eileen Wang (D) resigned and pleaded guilty to being a Chinese spy.

That’s just three weeks! All of this wildly gratifying DOJ activity should also be considered in light of the FBI’s Fulton County raid (January 28th) and the FBI’s criminal subpoenas to Maricopa County officials (March), both related to the 2020 Election. This level of politically adjacent prosecution spanning the entire country and involving state and federal levels and deep state actors like the CDC scientists is historically unprecedented. If it weren’t happening right before our astonished eyes, you’d place a Polymarket bet that it could never happen.
