The Georgia Indictment Mug Shots: A Close Reading
https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2023/08/georgia-rico-mug-shots-who-managed-to-pose-for-the-best-one-so-far.html
Wearing the vacant gaze of the deeply hypnotized, paired with a white, collarless blouse, Powell looks like a member of the chain-smoking doomsday cult in The Leftovers being nabbed for a bout of domestic terrorism. Her forehead is placid and dewy; her grin is slack. Having been red-pilled against the deep state in the way of an internet-illiterate boomer, Powell is a true believer. This mug shot is all part of Trump’s beautiful master plan. There is nothing to fear.

She doesn't look like Ann Dowd's character, but Gladys, a little bit. (Nitpicking Leftovers fan.)

Yeah, I was gonna say, that's not Ann Dowd (whom I know mostly from Handmaid's Tale).
― immodesty blaise (jimbeaux), Friday, 25 August 2023 04:03 (eight months ago) link
Ann Dowd in The Leftovers is what Trump's lawyer should have looked like.

xp ha sorry to disappoint. it was partly meant to be some doom humor, about y'know, now. these good times. there are suits pending against the law, there's kemp's own ambitions, there's the commission, and public opinion.
on the other hand, it's real, and donnie does not necessarily need to win, he needs to slow all of his procedures way down while he foments-- whatever it is that he's hoping to foment. actually cancel that, he needs to win, but delay helps.

yeah I"ve already made my peace with that. the damage by this current court won't be actively stopped at earliest for probably decades and then the lasting effects by what they've done, well, longer than that.
nevermind that in 20 years it will be 173 degrees outside.

A buddy of mine came to the bar last night to tie one on in celebration of Booking Day. He ordered a Mug Shot of my choice, so I gave him a shot of our best tequila in a Moscow Mule mug. Anyway, on his way down into a dissolute puddle he said, "Back in WWII they said that the greatest hero of the war would be the person who killed Hitler, and that turned out to be Hitler. Today the greatest hero might be the person who kills the Republican Party, and that's going to turn out to be Trump." It was kind of funny/striking at the time but maybe a little overoptimistic?

I do not think Brian Kemp will be inclined to call a special session of the Georgia legislature to remove Fani Willis from office. He loathes Trump, and does not need the crisis that would ensue.

removing a special prosecutor from office doesn't end a criminal trial, anyway, just slows it down
