I'm in Maryland, so not your target demo, but good on you for Local Reporting Without Borders. I adore the idea of a local- or state-based publication covering reps in the state house or DC, because that shit's local too. Well done, much love!

The irony here is that they'll go to a Taylor Tomlinson show in London (if she ever goes), where she'll spend like a third of the time joking about her mental diagnoses and medications. Whoops!

So, I'm ignorant of this sort of thing, what would happen if the attorney . . . just didn't drop the case? Would DOJ fire him? Does DOJ have the power to take him off the case? Is he afraid he's gonna get shivved if he keeps going? Like what's the threat here?
