and as a growing teenager, the sheer weight of the novels didn\u2019t intimidate me anymore either.&nbsp;&nbsp;Reading became a physical workout as well as an intellectual exercise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All to get to this:&nbsp;&nbsp;in the&nbsp;<em>Agony and Ecstasy<\/em>; as Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel ceiling in excruciating detail, Pope Julius II kept coming in to see if he was done.&nbsp;&nbsp;\u201cWhen will you make an end?\u201d the Pontiff would cry from the floor, yelling up into the scaffolding where Michelangelo was doing his work.&nbsp;&nbsp;\u201cWhen I am finished!\u201d was always the artist\u2019s infuriating answer.&nbsp;&nbsp;He spent four years laying on his back on the top scaffold, paint dripping into his eyes and face, crafting the intricate details of God touching Adam and giving him the spark of life.&nbsp;&nbsp;(<em>That literary moment became a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=xPJzhocW7vw\">pivotal scene<\/a>&nbsp;in the Hollywood blockbuster movie, with Charlton Heston as the artist and Rex Harrison as the Pope.)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Anticipation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>My news feeds are full of anticipation.\u00a0\u00a0Former Trump Chief of Staff Mark Meadows cut a deal with Special Prosecutor Jack Smith.\u00a0\u00a0He testified to the Grand Jury and agreed to plead guilty to lesser crimes.\u00a0\u00a0Did he talk about the Mara Lago documents, about the Insurrection; we don\u2019t know.\u00a0\u00a0What we do know is that if Smith reached Meadows, he\u2019s only \u201cone move\u201d away from the former President himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Smith also called his Washington, DC Grand Jury back into session this week, after a several week hiatus.&nbsp;&nbsp;My \u201cTV\u201d Prosecutors, all former Justice Department officials, prognosticate that the Smith \u201cteam\u201d has prepped its final case for the Jurors, and are ready to call for indictments.&nbsp;&nbsp;We are all holding our breath, is TODAY INDICTMENT DAY?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And we discovered a whole other Grand Jury, meeting in Miami, dealing with the document case.\u00a0\u00a0That makes sense, the documents were in Southern Florida, the search of Mara Lago was in that jurisdiction, and, if there were crimes committed (lying to the FBI, hiding classified documents, obstructing justice) many of those actions were also in South Florida.\u00a0\u00a0But we didn\u2019t know about the Miami end of the probe.\u00a0\u00a0Is THIS where the document indictments will come down?\u00a0\u00a0Is the DC Grand Jury just dealing with the Insurrection?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Boiling<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Trump lawyers met with the Department of Justice, with the Smith \u201cteam\u201d on Monday.\u00a0\u00a0We \u201cknow\u201d they were told  Trump was a target of the investigation, the last step before he becomes a defendant in a Federal Court.\u00a0\u00a0Of course, the former President tweeted  he wasn\u2019t indicted.\u00a0But,\u00a0he is a target, but the Grand Jury arrow hasn\u2019t been released \u2026 yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, the \u201cpot is boiling\u201d in Atlanta. State charges seem to be pending for Trump and others, dealing with election interference.\u00a0\u00a0Is South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham  included? Are the false electors who signed onto the fake Georgia petition to Congress?\u00a0\u00a0Prosecutor Fani Willis warned local law enforcement to be ready for a July or August announcement, will that be the next \u201cshoe to drop\u201d on the twice-impeached, once defeated former President?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Smith<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>And finally, we actually saw video, real live images, of Jack Smith himself, walking to work.&nbsp;&nbsp;The haggard man in the drooping suit looks like the long-worn Michelangelo, beard and all.&nbsp;&nbsp;And where is the security for a man who might bring down the pivotal figure of our time, Donald Trump?&nbsp;&nbsp;Just that one guy beside him with a vest?&nbsp;&nbsp;Don\u2019t they realize how crazy this whole thing could, will, get?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And Jack Smith\u2019s answer to shouted media questions:\u00a0\u00a0silence.\u00a0\u00a0He has nothing to say to the public, to the American \u201cPopes\u201d waiting on the floor of our judicial chapel.\u00a0\u00a0We will see his work, his own \u201cCreation\u201d, on his terms. We must wait for him to complete it, to finish.\u00a0\u00a0 Then we&#8217;ll know.
