Me too Bigman 👍 Tribetime Sep 2021 #62

Mine too, Bigman. It's been 8 months. There have been hoards of public attacks on our Scrivener7 Sep 2021 #11

You have the right to your opinion, and to voice it. Grasswire2 Sep 2021 #30

Comey and Trump team notwithstanding, DOJ doesn't conduct its investigations in public StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #7

Exactly. Elessar Zappa Sep 2021 #8

Yes they should definitely be keeping us informed. kacekwl Sep 2021 #20

DOJ gives regular briefings on their work StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #22

I think it's a mistake to continually tamp down public outcry for justice in this moment. Grasswire2 Sep 2021 #32

+1000 And I hope Biden isn't just waiting for outcry will die down so he can get back to business. lagomorph777 Sep 2021 #39

No one is "tamping down public outcry" StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #40

Sorry, but... sheshe2 Sep 2021 #45

Yes, hopefully. But we are 8 months in and nothing has happened. I fear they are Scrivener7 Sep 2021 #9

I am so sick of hearing these declarations. CrackityJones75 Sep 2021 #10

Noted. But histories teach us that democracies need to be protected or they stop. Scrivener7 Sep 2021 #12

If you think that prosecutions magically happen with no investigations, StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #13

Case in point. Scrivener7 Sep 2021 #15

Yup. We have some folks here who would make great lawyers for terrorists. lagomorph777 Sep 2021 #17

Some people definitely don't understaaaaaaand. StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #21

Even people who don't understand (I see your sarcasm above) have a right to speak their mind. Grasswire2 Sep 2021 #33

For someone complaining so vociferously about not being able to "speak their mind" StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #41

I never have a problem speaking my mind when I see someone attempting to bully others. Grasswire2 Sep 2021 #42

We don't disagree about letting people speak StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #43

Maybe so. Maybe you think you aren't telling them to hush up. Grasswire2 Sep 2021 #49

Garland has to go, if he can't put away these thugs and the Capitol thugs and their boss. lagomorph777 Sep 2021 #16

Why do you think "Garland doesn't want to take it seriously"? StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #23

It's becoming clear from the outside information, that the coup attempt is not taken seriously. lagomorph777 Sep 2021 #24

OK. I guess you would know. StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #25

If there's some super-secret plan to suddenly start making the thugs pay, when does it start? lagomorph777 Sep 2021 #26

I've repeatedly explained how plea bargains work and how they're being used here StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #36

There you go again. nt Grasswire2 Sep 2021 #35

Why do you think he does? Do you have some inside information about what's going on Scrivener7 Sep 2021 #28

Actually, there's plenty of evidence to support what I'm saying StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #31

All of which boils down to this, buried deep in your statement: Scrivener7 Sep 2021 #34

+1000 nt Grasswire2 Sep 2021 #38

So why do you attempt to shut down the opinions of rank and file Dems here? Grasswire2 Sep 2021 #37

Again, I have never tried to shut down anyone's opinion - which I think you know StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #44

Oh, boo-hoo! Nobody is doing that. NurseJackie Sep 2021 #46

Thank you. sheshe2 Sep 2021 #48

I'm really disappointed with this DoJ. Marius25 Sep 2021 #50

What do you think they should be doing that they're not doing? StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #51

There you go yet again. Grasswire2 Sep 2021 #55

And here YOU come again StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #57

More serious charges for the insurrectionists. Marius25 Sep 2021 #59

600 people have been arrested StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #60

So far, all the people that have been charged are getting slaps on the wrist. Marius25 Sep 2021 #61

That's not true StarfishSaver Sep 2021 #63
