The crime continues and we still do not have an Attorney General.

Today, the crime of sedition continues. Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley and others will continue to provoke their supporters into believing that the last election was stolen from them. In the face of all evidence, they will continue to attack our electoral system and tear down our democracy. What's next? Will they ask for the military to turn against their country and overthrow the present President, Joe Biden?

It is a continuing crime. They are more than sore losers. They are criminals.

1. They are unrepentant criminals.

2. It takes time to delete, erase, shred and hide stuff.

3. He will be sworn in this week

The committee votes tomorrow and the full Senate confirmation will be later in the week.

6. Yes, we'll have our Attorney General probably on Wednesday. And I doubt he's been sitting....

....around twiddling his thumbs waiting for confirmation. No doubt he's already knee deep into investigations.

4. The republicans are terrified of a real AG in office...it spells their doom.

[George II]

5. The Judiciary Committee will be voting tomorrow, and the full Senate a day or so later.

7. Yes. Let's hope that the new AG begins quickly 'bending that moral arc towards justice'

As Attorney General Eric Holder cautioned (the quote from abolutionist Reverend Parker) “The arc of the moral universe bends toward justice, but it only bends toward justice because people pull it towards justice. It doesn’t happen on its own.”

We've had four years of Trump, et al bending it into a pretzel.

8. The GOP is a crime syndicate, not a political party.

They win by cheating, lying, stealing.

9. The Justice Department is full of Deep State operatives.

Or, as I like to call them, "career competent, capable, dedicated employees", who can keep things running according to long-established norms and practices.

But, I don't think it's a crime to claim an election was stolen. It's just moronic.
