seem to be dealing with their right wing effectively. Bolivia, Brazil, Germany.
Bolivia just defeated a military coup.
Germany arrested a slew of right wingers BEFORE they tried a coup.
But here in the good ol USA, we wait for years to act then have to drag DOJ kicking and screaming. Can't look "political", even if the delays go into the presidential race.

Did the Sawdi Arabians give lil Jair 2 bil worth of diamonds?

The other countries had investigations and are prosecuting their criminal leaders. Garland did nothing to ours.
