Earth to Garland: They're not playing the Democracy / Rule of Law game anymore

[zonemaster]

If you could get out of your ivory tower of "tradition", "process", and "irreproachability", that'd be greaaaaat...

1. I expect some leadership from DoJ today.

And all the way to January 20, 2025 -- and centuries beyond.

[DaBronx]

2. He's awful

This is all very depressing but everyone has to rise up and vote.

[blm]

3. This Right Wing Extremist judiciary is the REAL DEEP STATE.

The REAL New World Order being set up by Putin and unAmerican, bad faith Republicans.

[orthoclad]

4. The Deep State's address is Wall Street

The Extreme Court are just their water-bearers.

[bigtree]

5. this dismissal just came out

...and you're yelling at DOJ?

This is just a diversion from Cannon's responsibility, and the courts.

It always amazing to see these 'law and order' folks letting Trump and his cohorts off the hook by doing nothing but trying to generate outrage against the DOJ, instead.

It's a pattern.

[ancianita]

9. THANK YOU.

[tritsofme]

18. It's not just a pattern, it is a derangement.

Some of these people have a very unhealthy obsession.

[Fiendish Thingy]

6. What would you have Garland do at this moment?

DOJ can appeal Cannon’s ruling, or refile the charges using a US Attorney.

What else would you have him do?

[mjvpi]

15. Thank you.

7. That memo must go out to every Democrat

including Biden. Anything less won’t do

[flying_wahini]

8. Biden needs to demand the resignations of Thomas, Alito and Robert's- if they don't he should fire them.

Give them a taste of their own medicine. Replace them immediately. Let them howl.

[LudwigPastorius]

11. "...if they don't he should fire them."

That's not the way the Constitution works.

[Emile]

14. Presidential official acts are legal now.

[Zeitghost]

17. Not legal

Only potentially immune from prosecution.

There is a big difference.

[Frank D. Lincoln]

16. That's not the way the Constitution works.

Because of a corrupt SCOTUS, the Constitution is on life support.

If Trump regains power, and SCOTUS might install him even if he loses, the Constitution will be dead and buried.

Don't misunderstand. Under normal circumstances I'd agree with you but these aren't normal circumstances.

We're in the midst of a fascist takeover.

[tritsofme]

19. Or maybe he can blow magic faery dust toward them and they will disappear?!?

[republianmushroom]

10. If it is not to political for you, Garland, let Smith totally loose to get a USA traitor.

41 months and counting (includes foot dragging)

[Sky Jewels]

12. Garland doesn't care.

His actions have made clear he’s not on our side.

[onecaliberal]

13. Garland has been protecting the child rapist along.
