General Discussion

But considering Garland, somehow his slowness always seems to favors republicans. It's going on 4 years and there is suspicion that some coup participants are still serving in congress, trump is still running around delaying, delaying, delaying, hoping his appointed judges/justices go along with the obvious plan to allow motion after motion after motion to run out the clock on bringing the 91 felony indictments to trial until after the election, or so close to the election that he can keep yelling that he's a victim of a witch hunt.

And so far Judge loose Cannon and the SCOTUS 6 are complying. SCOTUS for some reason is delaying ruling on the couldn't-be-more-goddam-obvious DC Circuit Court's decision that no one is above the law, even a president, is not immune from breaking the law.

Garland's first order of business on taking office should've been starting an investigation on not just the foot soldiers on J6, but also the planners of the attempt to overthrow the government of the United States...it's so obvious it should've been the very first job of the Attorney General to attend to.

But no, trump and others were running around non-indicted for a couple of years. If Garland had started investigating the attempt to overthrow the government of the United States immediately on taking office we would not be faced with whether trump can run-out-the-clock before the election.

Come on, if not for the House J6 Select Committee putting the DOJ, with way more investigative resources to shame, we wouldn't be here watching the clock tick down like in a football game.

trump should've already been tried, most likely convicted, a year ago. I mean it took how long, how many attempts in the slam-dunk MAL docs case to get him to return just the documents he stole...and he's still got some (DOJ's FBI agents missed finding a secret room with even more stolen, and still retained, hidden docs).

But no, Garland waited way too long to appoint Special Counsel Smith (doing a great job btw), when no special counsel was needed. He, the Attorney General should've taken direct charge of the investigation of the attempt to overthrow the government of the United States. He himself, the AG, that's his job.

But no, his hesitance, timidity, or whatever you call it, some may see it as guile even, him being a Federalist Society recommendation, he went the special counsel route for others to do his job. Hell he even appointed a republican-appointed special counsel, Hur, to go after Biden's docs case. It took years and produced a bang-up, near-400-page, hit job report on Biden which Garland read and released without editing out the blatant HIT JOB comments on "the old, slow, well-meaning elderly man with a poor memory not fit to be president." The exoneration of Biden was some 200 pages deep into the report, where as the exoneration of former VP Pence for his similar docs case, took one page and much less time to exonerate Pence with no hit job commentary.

Did I mention Garland is a Federalist Society recommendation, the outfit that generates a list of all the extreme, right wing judges/justices that republican presidents appoint to courts from, including Judge Cannon and the SCOTUS 6 btw?

Is Garland a republican party mole whose, I'll be kind, DELIBERATE moves take much time and seem to always favor the republican party, and trump?

It's too late now but IMO after Biden wins the election, Garland should immediately be thanked for his services and shown the door before he can do more damage.

I still can't believe he released that Hur report without editing out the hit job stuff. Talk about a passive-aggressive stabbing of Biden in the back...
