Merrick Garland's Cowardice Paved The Way For the Orange Degenerate's Second Term



You don't say.

GOD DAMN Merrick Garland for his 3 years of Timid Frightful INACTION. This could have been the Orange Degenerates 4th year in PRISON.

How hard would it have been to Prosecute the low level criminals and the high level ones at the SAME GOD DAMN TIME?



Talk about missing the moment.

2. The next AG won't be shy about bringing charges, even if they're political motivated. Garland dragged his feet

bringing charges against real criminals, Biondi won't need actual crimes to bring charges.

As Trump showed us, the legal system is slow and clunky. There are lots of ways to "run out the clock." And an AG has limited time, money, and prosecutors. They have to choose who they go after. She won't be able to go after everyone....and with the right backing from the Democrats we can drag out any prosecutions, esp. phony/Fox ones.

I think Bondi is going to also "find out" when she gets into that most serious of legal jobs and tries to be the top law enforcement officer for Orange Idi Amin.

… interference in the 2016 Presidential Election (she was a patriot) and Trump stole and no doubt
sold and or disseminated our nation’s top secrets to Russia and most likely to China and Saudi Arabia
too and nothing will happen to him. He should be in the Super Max Federal Prison in Florence, Colorado
but instead he is going back to the White House. Good job Garland.

died in the US Super Max Prison in Colorado …. FBI Agent Robert Hansen … however we will now never
know because Garland dragged his feet and now Trump will never stand trial for what he did too.

Btw I have a family member who worked with some of the stuff that was covered in the documents
Trump stole and even though he is now just retired he would be picked up by the FBI or some other
agency in a heartbeat if he broke his confidentiality agreements.

… the writings of Sandra Day O’Conner who ruled that it was illegal to count the votes
of legitimate voters in Florida in 2000 (bush v Gore) because the outcome might embarrass
the plaintiff (w) and since she knew she was rat fucking America, the Constitution, and are
settled laws she wrote that the decision in that case could never be used as legal precedent
in any past or future cases.
