Ed— You are a Quad Cities’ treasure. Keep on keeping on. Spot on with the importance of juries.

I agree complete. A jury of FL residents sat in the grand jury and delivered these charges. I hate excuses and the "what about Hillary", "What about Pence & Biden documents" comments. Hillary, Pence and Biden's situation were heard before a grand jury of their peers and there were no charges. It is disheartening to see Republicans try to sew distrust in the system rather than let the case take its course.

100% agreed -- this is a key element lacking in contemporary journalism. "In my more than three decades at the Quad-City Times, I believe I provided my greatest value to readers by spending time researching and writing stories that weren’t just here today and gone tomorrow." Quality over quantity any day!
