against recusal.

Everyday it just keeps getting crazier and crazier.

Update: Acosta got the scoop. One reportedly said "Yes, I guess you'd call it pressure".

Ty Cobb had no comment.

And fairly plainly, at that.

But who am I kidding with that “ethical” bullshit? Of COURSE he recused himself: he didn’t want to go to prison. It’s entirely possible, in my mind at least, that he aided and abetted this traitorous lunacy from the beginning, but never thought it would go anywhere. Just like a certain book published today alleges about the entire Trump Gang.
