55. Garland is awful and you know it. Deflecting to Biden is just dumb.

You have to put the failure where it belongs. Yes, the buck stops with the President. And yes, Biden should have replaced Garland, I agree. Garland created a political trap by FAILING to prosecute Trump until he announced his campaign. It made it look like the investigation was political. Maybe Garland did this intentionally so he could indict Hunter.

Garland reminds me of Caesar Flickerman from The Hunger Games Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #11

Thank you MotownPgh Oct 2024 #33

If Trump wins, it is on Garland's head. He allowed several cases against Trump expire under Statute of Limitations Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #34

So I guess what you're saying is that it is on Biden's head. The buck stops here and all that? onenote Oct 2024 #49

Biden regrets appointing Garland. So he knows. Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #51

So he stepped aside rather than remove Garland? Don't think so.. onenote Oct 2024 #53

Garland is awful and you know it. Deflecting to Biden is just dumb. Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #55

Pretty sure I'm not the one deflecting. But glad to see you acknowledge that you're also blaming Biden. onenote Oct 2024 #57

You're the one who said it, not me. You blamed him. Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #58

Oh, so now its not on Biden's head that he let Garland mismanage DOJ? onenote Oct 2024 #61

You keep flip flopping on what you want me to say Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #64

Not the one flip flopping here. onenote Oct 2024 #70

Now you're just projecting. Seems to be in style these days Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #71

One moment you are saying it's Biden's fault Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #72

Quoting your words:"Yes, the buck stops with the President. And yes, Biden should have replaced Garland, I agree." onenote Oct 2024 #73

Quoting your words: " Can someone identify the law that Musk is said to have broken" Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #74

And I'm still waiting for an answer: Medias claimed Musk coordinating with the Trump campaign was illegal. onenote Oct 2024 #77

This is one to watch. Bev54 Oct 2024 #79

And I'm still waiting for an answer: why are you defending Musk and Trump? Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #80

I answered your bullshit accusation by calling it exactly that: bullshit. onenote Oct 2024 #81

And I answered your BS. You are clearly in favor of rich assholes Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #82

You must have studied under the republicans given your posts. onenote Oct 2024 #83

To a certain extent but you are wrong about moniss Oct 2024 #13

There is a great difference between moniss Oct 2024 #19

I think it's obvious that moniss Oct 2024 #32

you failed to address what I wanted to convey in my post you responded to bigtree Oct 2024 #45

It shouldn't take four years to prosecute a traitor Emile Oct 2024 #3

He is Bidens biggest mistake.... yourout Oct 2024 #6

I think Biden said something like that recently. Think. Again. Oct 2024 #9

He did Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #12

It isn't Garland holding up the trials of Trump it is the courts. Bev54 Oct 2024 #28

Let's review the timeline, shall we? Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #36

If you think Garland waited for Smith, you are really really out of touch. Bev54 Oct 2024 #38

And yet in all that time, not one indictment Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #43

He was brought in to do the indictments, after Garland's office had worked through a number of Bev54 Oct 2024 #44

Links to cases? Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #46

I have linked many articles on this here on DU and am not going to spend my time going back Bev54 Oct 2024 #47

Then your claim is bogus because I know there are none Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #48

My "claim" is bogus because you failed to do your own research? Bev54 Oct 2024 #68

If Kamala wins the presidency, and the Repubs take the Senate, she might not be able to have a different AG Intractable Oct 2024 #15

Then do what Republicans do gab13by13 Oct 2024 #17

I think she can appoint anyone. newdayneeded Oct 2024 #31

She can. And as she has said she would have Rs in her cabinet Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #42

The point isn't about the procedure to indict someone gab13by13 Oct 2024 #16

Well said, sir. Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #18

I would not be surprised if TSF wins if he doesn't leave Garland stay on. Scary thought, Emile Oct 2024 #22

He's got Aileen Cannon lined up for that job. He needs a total sycophant like Hitler's generals. Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #66

Oh boy, another possible letter. republianmushroom Oct 2024 #20

Yeah, but this time he'll be double-dog daring him. Xavier Breath Oct 2024 #21

Believe we are getting to that stage. republianmushroom Oct 2024 #23

Whoa there! The double-dog stage is pretty extreme. Not to be taken lightly.../s Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #29

Can someone identify the law that Musk is said to have broken by being a Trump cheerleader? onenote Oct 2024 #50

Sticking your head in the sand so you can't see there is a crime is not an excuse for Garland. Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #52

Not answering the question suggest that you don't have an answer. onenote Oct 2024 #54

Probable Cause is enough to get an indictment. Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #56

Talking to Putin might be a Logan Act violation but how is it probably cause for charging election interference? onenote Oct 2024 #59

If there is probably cause that he could have leaked intel or was asked to turn Starlink off for China Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #60

Accusing me of defending Trump and Musk is bullshit. onenote Oct 2024 #62

You seem very interested in making the argument that Musk has committed no crime Mr.WeRP Oct 2024 #63

No, I'm asking what crime he has committed. onenote Oct 2024 #69
