without a decision and floating probabilities of independent counsel to postpone the hard decision. If he does it now, no one would care. If he keeps waiting, it will be back to politics.

William Zanzinger killed poor Hattie Carroll
With a cane that he twirled around his diamond ring finger
At a Baltimore hotel, society gath'rin'
And the cops were called in, and his weapon took from him
As they rode him in custody down to the station
And booked William Zanzinger for first-degree murder

But you who philosophize, disgrace and criticize all fears
Take the rag away from your face, now ain't the time for your tears

William Zanzinger, who at 24 years, owns a tobacco farm of 600 acres
With rich wealthy parents who provide and protect him
And high office relations in the politics of Maryland
Reacted to his deed with a shrug of his shoulders
And swear words and sneering, and his tongue it was snarling
In a matter of minutes, on bail was out walkin'

But you who philosophize, disgrace and criticize all fears
Take the rag away from your face, now ain't the time for your tears

Hattie Carroll was a maid of the kitchen
She was 51 years old and gave birth to 10 children
Who carried the dishes and took out the garbage
And never sat once at the head of the table
And didn't even talk to the people at the table
Who just cleaned up all the food from the table
And emptied the ashtrays on a whole other level
Got killed by a blow, lay slain by a cane
That sailed through the air and came down through the room
Doomed and determined to destroy all the gentle
And she never done nothing to William Zanzinger

And you who philosophize, disgrace and criticize all fears
Take the rag away from your face, now ain't the time for your tears

In the courtroom of honor, the judge pounded his gavel
To show that all's equal and that the courts are on the level
And that the strings in the books ain't pulled and persuaded
And that even the nobles get properly handled
Once that the cops have chased after and caught 'em
And that the ladder of law has no top and no bottom
Stared at the person who killed for no reason
Who just happened to be feelin' that way without warnin'
And he spoke through his cloak, most deep and distinguished
And handed out strongly for penalty and repentance
William Zanzinger with a six-month sentence

Oh, but you who philosophize, disgrace and criticize all fears
Bury the rag deep in your face for now's the time for your tears

bigly.

The facts and the law support an indictment, so Garland must act.

Justice matters.

MANY FILES WERE FOUND EMPTY i.e., MISSING, thus STOLEN.

Treasonous hair furhair IS NO LONGER "PROTECTED" from criminal prosecution since JANUARY 20, 2021, 12PM.

There are LEGAL PROCEDURES TO NEGOTIATE with the NARA to "keep" files after a POTUS term.

Treasonous hair furhair NEVER FOLLOWED THEM.

ADD refusing to comply FULLY to the LEGAL OBLIGATIONS described in THE DOJ SUBPOENA to return the STOLEN DOCUMENTS, thus OBSTRUCTING JUSTICE.

There is NOTHING else to present to A JURY OF HIS PEERS and if they hang the criminal trial because some of his peers love to kiss hair furhair's butt, cancel the trial and start a new one.

Because it is as clear as spring water hair furhair is GUILTY as F**K!

ENOUGH!


p.s.: 'pologies for caps... just had enough of this obvious BS hesitation (it is detrimental to National Security)
