As a WV native I appreciate Chris Regan appearing on the podcast - and his perspective of WV politics was great to hear. Thanks Chris Regan, hope you are able to be on again in the future!

If the lawyer themself does something, sure, jail them if they are in contempt, but if the only way to have prevented Trump from doing it would be to have slocked him as he was leaving the office and put him in a dungeon, I don’t see how that’s the lawyer’s fault. They need to just get over it and jail him if he’s in contempt. The hesitancy to do it doesn’t bode well for the will to jail him once he’s been found guilty.
