AG Garland has been quietly and effectively pursuing the multiple Trump regime criminals and anyone who helped plan, finance or incite the seditious January 6th insurrection.

Because, so far, he has not displayed the enthusiasm I hoped he'd have for "righting the wrongs" of the Trump cult. And, it certainly seems like most of the insurrectionists who have already entered pleas, have done so in exchange for slaps on the wrist. It is not an explanation to say that the "mere trespassers" did not assault an officer and they have "no priors".

They actively aided and abetted an attempt to overthrow our government. They are traitors. "Only" a year or so in prison should be the penalty for the MAGATS who "only" trespassed at the US Capitol. Those who attacked officers should receive sentences lengthy enough to deter future traitors.

5. In some cases you don't want to spook anyone, especially when their criminal activities are

ongoing. I'd say when they get the goods on someone, they should make sure they are tipped off to try and make them panic and destroy evidence or anything to bury them deeper.

7. Considering that he wasn't installed until March of 2021

and he didn't get fully staffed until last month, and couple that with the internal house cleaning that must be going on, we need to give him a bit more time before we diss him completely, JMHO of course
