It is generally a bad thing for a Mob Boss when one of his closest agents has to make a deal with the feds (something Merrick Garland knows very well).
Reality Check: The IRS deals with money, not guns.

Candice Louisa Daquin – Between happiness and unhappiness, life
By Candice Louisa Daquin
The wish to laugh and shrug off differences that create unhappiness and wars is a universal one. The majority of us want to avoid unhappiness at any cost. There is however, a downside to trying to avoid unhappiness by being too open about unhappiness. When we begin to pathologize everything as a disorder, we may inadvertently neglect our ability to generate better mental health.
Before mental illness was discussed en mass, it was private and considered shameful. This had obvious detrimental effects on those suffering, but one could also argue there was a benefit to not making everything so extremely public. Like with any argument, there are pros and cons to how far we publicize mental health. The extreme of ignoring it, didn’t work.

The central valley of California is like a big, very big, bathtub with just one drain hole at the Golden Gate, and it has history of storms that can fill it up. More of those are increasingly likely.
