DOJ scores major win on its way to taking down Donald Trump
It’s a big deal that a Proud Boys leader is now cutting a seditious conspiracy cooperation deal with the DOJ. It helps ensure that the other Proud Boys leaders will get convicted, because he’ll be testifying against them and providing evidence against them. But that’s just the half of it.
This also helps the DOJ to take down the likes of Roger Stone and Alex Jones, who were allegedly coordinating with the Proud Boys in relation to January 6th. Stone and Jones will in turn will feel pressure to cooperate against Donald Trump.
This is how crime bosses go down. You may not like how long it takes or how deliberate the process is, but we’ve historically seen that it gets the job done. Juries are far more likely to deliver a conviction when underlings provide testimony and evidence that the crime boss really was instructing them to commit crimes even while speaking in code.
