Fat former President Trump is almost certainly the target of an active federal criminal investigation for his failed effort to overturn the 2020 election, the Washington Post reports.
While this is kind of both a “no shit” headline, and a “what took them so long?” situation, it is a significant development on its own. This is really the first ever concrete confirmation that a former President is the target of a federal criminal investigation. This is it. The fat fuck is more likely than not to be indicted, barring some major evidentiary fuckup by prosecutors.
The Post reports the prosecution is a two-track effort, with one focused on seditious conspiracy and conspiracy to obstruct and official proceeding over the Capitol riot and the other centered on the fake elector scam and the other bullshit scams he tried to pull to overturn the election.
