Our children need to see the criminals being taken down in handcuffs. Including Trump ..
Especially Trump.

Simple question is would republicans be ok with someone like Hillary doing the exact same thing. Of course not just absurd

[davedon]

Instead he promised to pardon them if he wins again. So what the eff is going on. Why hasn’t this man been indicted?

[yapdog]

Trump going unpunished doesn't just send a message to future presidents. It sends a message to every American citizen that laws are mere suggestions.

Also supeaning her should disqualify Judge Thomas from anything on Jan 6th !!

*It's pretty simple... as the RICH GOT RICHER our Democracy became Weaker!*

[bradbrown]

What’s the point of anyone in this country following rules / laws - if the veil of responsibility of the DOJ -will not or does not indict the President. Chaos will be forth coming if nothing is done -

John Witherspoon, president of Princeton when Madison attended said:

A demagogue, by insinuating himself into the people’s graces, could create a power center within democracy, ultimately overturning and destroying that system.

Cheney, on FOX, is quite poised, isn't she? A CLASS Act. Good for her! Gregg Oreo somewhere U. S.A.

Ginni Thomas has to be taken to court she is part of this too.

[Smoovepimp]

No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability

*Failure to condemn trump would be to condone him and his deeds.*

[kytediane]

It appears our AG needs to be forced, compelled, demanded, or shamed into to act like an AG!! Sad

[cappie]

Is Garland moving SO FAST that 1 day for him is 12, 000 years on earth? Respect and Patience, but enough already.

[siobhanshavonne]

There were plenty of crimes committed way hefore Jan 6th, but if DOJ is listening Jan 6th was the ultimate day that deserves attention.

[parcher]

People must gather in front of the DOJ with signs that say Garland must go. Indict Trump
