OK, now do something about this miscarriage of justice instead of just talking about it please!!

[KaiserBlade]

Remember when Schumer threatened the Supreme Court justices. Yeah Merchan that.

[johnbiela]

Either he violated fica or he didn't violate fica. Facts, not opinion, matter.

[johnbryant-nfmg]

When you have local DA’s deciding federal law you are in a swamp full of alligators!

[claraallen]

Dear Congress, You are powerless ....how does that feel ?

[TabithaG-kmxv]

Do the right thing for america and stop this corruption

[KJF]

You're going to see a lot of people retire right before Trump gets back in office

[fin]

Talk, Talk, and you do nothing. Vote them out of office, America

[somuchfortalent]

They're so outraged they can't stop talking about it. But they won't do anything about it.

[PopeDavidL]

Great, I want to see that Judge sitting there. Then put him in contempt-of-court solitary for a few weeks when he inevitably thinks he is the legalest person in the room.

[danielbates]

The hell with New York. Boycott anything New York.

[brucecox]

This is akin to not allowing a ballistics expert to testify concerning a homicide by the use of a gun.

[getsmart]

Bravo. Interesting the turn out when the actual letter of the law is withheld and exposed.

[michaelhurley]

Can we just have fair elections and let the people decide who they want as President....

[lapicker]

If this judge will abuse his authority to this degree in a high profile case like this, I can only imagine what he would be capable of when he’s not being called to account by Congress and the conservative press. There MUST be more accountability for these activist judges!!

[twiztedpill]

Disbar this judge. Americans are losing faith in the DOJ and all of this corruption.

[stevestephens]

'Actions' Speak Louder than Words.

Gross Miscarriage of Justice so Do Something !

[leocaballero]

So based on what’s being said here why hasn’t somebody just shut this all down at the state level if there is no crime?

[Stigger]

Marchan needs to be disbarred, then be sent to jail.

[JamesGraham-fy]

Why has JJ not been held accountable for ignoring a subpoena?
