Yes, I follow Emptywheel but can't say I understand all she talks about because some of it seems to require prior knowledge of events/things of which I'm unaware. :) For instance here

There's documentation in the case file that some part of the investigation ' potentially something Ziegler himself did! ' created what are probably Confrontation Clause problems for the case generally.

(The Confrontation Clause found in the Sixth Amendment provides that "in all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right'to be confronted with the witnesses against him." The Clause was intended to prevent the conviction of a defendant upon written evidence (such as depositions or ex parte affidavits) without that defendant having an opportunity to face his or her accusers and to put their honesty and truthfulness to test before the jury.) Excerpt

This leads me to ask, "Exactly what went on that would interfere with Hunter Biden's ability to confront witnesses? I have no idea, but the fellow putting memos in the file means it's very highly possible - and I'm puzzled as to what it could be.
