Through all his troubles, neither the DOJ/FBI nor any state authorities ever subjected Donald Trump to arrest, preferring in every case to proceed by indictment and voluntary surrender. It’s notable that a sitting judge and pillar of the Milwaukee community was not extended the same courtesy.

I wonder how much muskrat paid Garland to look the other way?
Garland is the epitome of weaponized incompetence and just as corrupt as the so-called supreme court.

Garland dropped all charges against Trump before they finished counting ballots, on November 7th. He never really wanted to do anything.

He should never have been allowed to leave DC on Jan 20th, 2020. This is all on Garland and Biden's desire to move on instead of treating a coup attempt with the urgency it deserved will go down as a massive fail.

“one of” is incredibly charitable at this point

Failing to enforce the rule of law from timidity leads to anarchy.

Can we admit that the "deep state" (to the degree it exists) is and always has been authoritarian and Republican-aligned.

Were there FBI agents lining up to slap cuffs on Trump for Jan 6?

I doubt it.

Trump tried to fire every FBI agent that investigated Jan 6th; and that ended up being over half of all agents.

They certainly investigated it, arrested and put people in Prison. Then Trump pardoned them

Garland was the wrong pick for AG, but he was exactly the guy you would expect Biden to pick. And the fact that Biden would pick an institutionalist like Garland was central to the appeal he made to voters that got him elected.

shrimpmeatmom.bsky.social•38 days ago

I mean sure, but I think there was the expectation (as evidenced by 2024 results) that the institutionalist would act to, you know, protect the institutions.

literally since day one I never blamed Garland, I blamed Biden for picking him. Because it was glaringly obvious what kind of AG he would be from the start, he got what he wanted

There's nothing left to discuss. He failed to protect the country when he had the power to do so but is only part of a much larger group.

There is no President. Only an Emperor.
