Will Brandon's AG ever prosecute Bannon?

View attachment 562729

No Democratic member of the House or Senate is saying it publicly yet, but more and more are saying it privately: “Joe Biden made a big mistake in appointing Merrick Garland attorney general. He should have gone for Doug Jones. Garland’s too timid.”

Frustration with Garland has been building for some time among congressional Democrats over his failure to pursue criminal charges against former President Trump. By itself, they believe, Trump’s call to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, urging him to “just find 11,780 votes,” is sufficient evidence of a federal crime to merit appointment of a special prosecutor. “I think a criminal investigation here is absolutely warranted,” former U.S. Solicitor General Neal Katyal told MSNBC.

The problem, one former top White House official told me, is that Garland has a bad case of “Obama syndrome.” Meaning two things. One, he thinks his job is to look forward, not backward. Which, on the face of it, is absurd. All criminal prosecution deals with crimes committed in the past, not in the future. Two, Garland’s afraid of appearing to use his power to punish his political opponents. Which is equally absurd. Republicans have no blank check to break the law just because a Democrat happens to be attorney general.

What is taking AG Garland so long? What do you think?
Prosecute him for what, being a Republican?

I think that your cheering on the weaponization of the justice system against political opponents, exposes you as the vile fascist scumbucket that you are.
 
The Select Committee investigating the January 6th insurrection isn't breaking any speed records. At the rate they're going, the Manchin-inspired 2022 Mid-term losses by the Democrats to the trumpublicans will end the investigation before any real progress is made.

But, this should surprise no one. After all, Speaker Pelosi took impeachment off the table for the many war crimes committed by the Bush/Cheney administration. And, Speaker Pelosi .2 chose the most softball charges for trump's first impeachment. (She didn't want to make the Senate Republicans look bad when they acquitted trump.)

Like all moderate congressional Democrats (Pelosi is not a progressive, despite what anyone might believe) Pelosi is hardly different than Manchin. The moderate Democrats have worked hard to serve their corporate benefactors, with the additional benefit of disappointing their constituencies, voters that will return them to the minority party status they prefer in 2022.

It is inevitable that the trumpublican congressional majority will quickly impeach, convict, and remove from office the Democrats' entire Presidential line of succession shortly after next year's Mid-term Elections. So, the 2024 Presidential Election and who would have been the two parties' nominees will no longer be an issue. The U.S. democracy will have been nearly two years gone by November 2024, replaced by the fascist government the trumpublicans formed when their rapid mass impeachment process was finished.

There was no "insurrection" fuckwit.
 
Interrupting the count isn't "insurrection", numbnutz.
their intent was to stop the count and keep Trump as president, which is an insurrection. Just because it failed still means its an insurrection, because they intended to take control. But in the end it was a clown coup and a dress rehearsal.
