I trust this POTUS. I'm certain there is a very good reason they are doing this. secondwind Jun 2021 #2

"I trust this POTUS" Botany Jun 2021 #13

I am doubtful. Why would they be talking about 'restoring normalcy'. Doesn't sound like they are triron Jun 2021 #40

I trust Joe and A.G. Merrick Garland on this. Botany Jun 2021 #47

I feel the same way. secondwind Jun 2021 #66

Joe not only was a sentor but he was a law professor for number of years too. Botany Jun 2021 #78

Remember those DOJ people outside MyOwnPeace Jun 2021 #86

And Joe and Merrick know things PatSeg Jun 2021 #89

This is an excellent point, and one that's easy to overlook. ShazzieB Jun 2021 #91

Prosecutors don't publicly reveal all their evidence PatSeg Jun 2021 #97

I agree PatSeg Jun 2021 #98

I trust the Biden administration to get this right Cymande Jun 2021 #118

Yes PatSeg Jun 2021 #119

Thanks I am very glad to be here. Cymande Jun 2021 #120

No--actually it was W.G. Harding's campaign slogan... slumcamper Jun 2021 #101

So you are saying Trump's tax returns and Barr's memos are being used in the Grand Jury Maraya1969 Jun 2021 #100

Isn't that what the GQP meme has been since 2016? usaf-vet Jun 2021 #41

This is a "sources say" article, I'd like to hear the "...re-litigating past battles..." from Biden uponit7771 Jun 2021 #5

Bingo! marble falls Jun 2021 #15

Well, the CNN info says the source is Democratic KPN Jun 2021 #49

I don't understand the DOJ piece at all. Perhaps you can explain it to me KPN Jun 2021 #51

This thread is an excellent example of the point I made elsewhere StarfishSaver Jun 2021 #10

It's a good point. Some DUers definately have their 'slip showing'. marble falls Jun 2021 #18

Hmmm ... food for thought for sure. KPN Jun 2021 #52

I was referring to Jason Johnson, whom people in the thread I linked attacked for criticizing Biden StarfishSaver Jun 2021 #59

Ya. Biden's DOJ. Budi Jun 2021 #19

Ummm..where does it say "Pardon"? And who said it? Budi Jun 2021 #27

Clearly nothing says 'pardon'. notinkansas Jun 2021 #35

Who said "returning to normalcy" (we want names, or one name). Justice matters. Jun 2021 #74

According to Greg Sargent notinkansas Jun 2021 #79

IF that was the case, there COULD be many "untold" reasons for it, like, for example... Justice matters. Jun 2021 #81

I agree that there could be many reasons for the Administration notinkansas Jun 2021 #83

Unless normal is hiding bad stuff jaxexpat Jun 2021 #117

Normalcy could just be letting DOJ do it's job rather KPN Jun 2021 #56

I dunno about the equivalency of normalcy and DOJ just doing its job. notinkansas Jun 2021 #58
