I believe DOJ will indict. I've argued with my best DU friend about the waiting. LakeArenal Jan 2023 #25

It'd be nice to have a "Criticize DOJ" forum here on DU luv2fly Jan 2023 #27

We already have a forum for that Fiendish Thingy Jan 2023 #35

Garland wasn't even nominated/confirmed/sworn in as AG BumRushDaShow Jan 2023 #52

And he'd still be a blithering idiot. louis-t Jan 2023 #97

Question is not "when" rather it's "will" as in will he be given preferential treatment? cstanleytech Jan 2023 #49

Even more frustrating than Garland's apparent lack of interest in doing anything Orrex Jan 2023 #60

Does that "doing nothing" include appointing a special prosecutor Ocelot II Jan 2023 #64

Depends on the result Orrex Jan 2023 #66
