One day we may learn this about the DOJ.

We may learn about the massive amount of resources, staff, prosecutors, time, it took to track down the thousands of people who stormed the capital. They had to travel to every State in the country. They had to charge them, put them on trial. Most, not all, of that work is now done. The DOJ did this at the same time they were conducting all the other business the DOJ has to do.

The J6 committee and DA Willis did not have to do this. They could immediately start investigating people at the top. It is no surprise to me Garland is behind the other investigations when it come to the people at the top. Garland started at the bottom, he had too. Recently Garland hired Jack Smith and it looks like they are now taking the next logical step. They are now increasing their efforts to go after the fake electors and the top coup plotters.

Just my opinion.

Taxpayers pay for the miscreant law-breaking.

I met in September, her son is a lawyer working for Justice dept on Trumps stuff. He has only been there a few years, took a year for security clearance. She seems to think after talking with son that he will be indicted soon. Says he isn't allowed to say much. They go slowly and carefully through everything to make sure what they do sticks.

It's frustrating for us on the sidelines but they are doing the job.

If Trump is indicted but no sitting members of congress are indicted, will the Jim Jordan's chill out or double down on their outrageous behavior?

Good post.

I love what Congressman Raskin said about not only the foot soldiers should be held accountable.
