Remember how it took merrick garland two full years and an independently organized governmental January 6th committee forcing his hand before he pursued criminal charges against Trump? How investigations by the NYT and WaPo showed that, over a year onto Biden’s presidency, Garland had ordered no investigations into Trump at all? Yeah.
That dude is singularly responsible for one of the biggest law enforcement failures in the history of the United States and an extreme dereliction of duty. What a coward. Like most cowards, he hoped if he did nothing and stayed quiet no one would notice him. Unfortunately, now anti-Trump people hate him for his failure to meaningfully prosecute and pro-Trump people hate him for attempting to prosecute in the first place.
This dude is the squirrel that runs across the street, then gets scared and tries to run back, then gets scared and tries to run across again, then gets scared and tries to run back… and then gets run over by the car.
Fuck Garland. I hope the right rips him to shreds so everyone can see that giving these people a pass just further enables them. You can’t play “both sides” when one side doesn’t care about the rules or truth.
Yes. Yes I fucking remember.
Make them work for it. Its only inevitable if you seccumb
It’s true. They’re only as powerful as you let them be. The “First they came” poem comes to mind.
History repeats itself. There will be another poem just like it in 10-30 years after it’s all over.
