So...explain to me....

[JPK]

This Guard Airman exposes secrets, is arrested and will probably go to prison perhaps for a long time. And yet, our exprez gives Lavrov secret info and goodness knows who else. Steals top secret docs from the WH, he and Flynn and Pompeo still walk among us. There is no justice.

[MontanaMama]

1. That's easy. There are two justice systems in America.

One for the rich, well connected and powerful and another for the rest of us mortals.

[claudette]

5. Exactly

When is Clarence Thomas going to be held accountable?

[MontanaMama]

6. He won't.

The Chief Justice does not believe SCOTUS needs any oversight and he's said so.

[claudette]

8. It's so

depressing

[claudette]

2. Absolutely true

Garland is a coward. Let’s hope Jack Smith has a spine. I think he does

[ExWhoDoesntCare]

15. Yeah, the guy who put away Timothy McVeigh is a coward

Do you have the faintest clue how insane that sounds?

[Marius25]

21. He's definitely proven he's more concerned about appearance than saving Democracy

and the rule of law

[Autumn]

25. Timothy McVeigh was not in a position of wealth and power.

This fucking weekend warrior has an ex president and idiots in Congress on his side.

[claudette]

26. It's not

insane. I’m just wondering why he wasn’t able do the same thing that Jack Smith is doing? Long ago. The same evidence is there.

[lapucelle]

3. ...

[Irish_Dem]

4. We are repeatedly told we are not smart enough to understand the US legal system.

It is all a wondrous, very secret, long range 3D chess game.

We are mere mortals who do not possess this wisdom.
And not to question it.

[lapucelle]

9. Nobody ever tells me that I am not smart enough to understand the US legal system. N/T

[Irish_Dem]

10. Good. I am glad.

I don't buy the BS either.

[ExWhoDoesntCare]

16. Nobody has said that

They're saying that there's the reality of a system that's always been slow and ponderous and that can be gamed by the rich...

And then there's throwing tantrums if you can't get what you want when you want it.

The federal court system doesn't turn on a dime, because it can't. It has long had a backlog to process, and that was before COVID threw a wrench into the system, then all those J6 participants flooding an already strained system. You do know that there are courts without the necessary number of judges adding to the backlog...right?

If there weren't plea deals, it would take a few years to get any case to trial. It's that backed up, and always has been.

[Irish_Dem]

20. Yep a good example of how I am not smart enough for this to make one bit of sense.

And on top of it, accused of having a temper tantrum when I'm not having a temper tantrum.

Yep if I were smarter it would all make perfect sense I am sure.

[Kennah]

7. Es gut to be da king

[Hortensis]

11. Oh, I don't know. The 21YO isn't TOO POWERFUL for the justice system

that's facing off against extremely corrupted and traitorous, and enormously powerful RW forces to go right after. I wouldn't say there's no justice, only that it isn't applied as equally as it should be. And could be.

I'd like a count of how many who claim to believe in equality have justified not voting or throwing their vote away on a candidate who couldn't win by claiming there'd be no justice no matter what they did. Miserable hypocrites.

[ExWhoDoesntCare]

17. Or maybe the case has been in the system for a while

And not talked about, because DOJ doesn't publicize what they're up to. Now we're hearing about it at the tail end of investigations and the rest.

[Hortensis]

28. :) That too! As it is, tRump spent 7 hours answering questions

for NY AG Letitia James in one of the cases yesterday.

And to underline: NO to false-equating tRump's corrupt WH and tRump's corrupt DoJ with Biden's.

[Mr.Bill]

12. So they didn't have to spend several years investigating

him to make sure they have an airtight case? Amazing how that works.

[ExWhoDoesntCare]

18. Sounds like they did if it happened years ago

And now the gears are finally grinding fine.

[Marius25]

22. You are aware Garland let Trump get away with like 10 counts of obstruction right?

He ignored the Mueller findings and let the statute of limitations run out.

[Sky Jewels]

13. Yup.

What's good for the goose ain't so good for the gander.

[Fiendish Thingy]

14. Well, Flynn was pardoned

Don’t know what Pompeo would be charged with, and DOJ didn’t know of any missing docs until NARA alerted them to it in late 2021, after which they contacted Trump, and while attempting to retrieve the documents, also gave Trump the opportunity to incriminate himself for obstruction, and establish his knowledge and intent to commit the crimes.

As for his revelations to Lavrov, that should have been grounds for impeachment, but I don’t expect he will ever be criminally charged for those events.

[onenote]

19. Do we have proof that Trump disclosed the documents he took from the WH?

Isn't that part of the investigation?

[Marius25]

23. Well, Trump did admit he took the documents and could make money off them

on live TV

[onenote]

24. Most of what Trump says is bullshit.

I don't recall him saying he ever sold any of the documents, but if you have a link....

[claudette]

27. Isn't there new now that

Dump showed a classified map to others?
