Episode notes
Rep. Grijalva Kept From Swearing In
- Adelita Grijalva won a House seat and remains unseated because Speaker Mike Johnson delays swearing her in.
- Arizona AG Kris Mayes threatens a mandamus to force her swearing and potentially release the Epstein files.
Document And Preapprove High-Risk Stings
- Use strict procedures and documentation in undercover sting operations, including logging serial numbers and pre-wiring locations.
- Ensure high-level approval and precise planning before deploying large cash buys like $50,000.
Silence Invites Adverse Inference
- DOJ defenders often deflect rather than explain when controversial acts appear on camera, which invites adverse inferences.
- Lack of transparency fuels public suspicion that withheld records are damaging.
