Unless any of them are running for office in November, in which case a secret, unofficial memo that has no legal force and effect will dictate whether our democracy survives or fails...at which time, no law or secret memo will ever apply again.

Just a guess, I think I know why committee members are putting pressure on Garland. [View all] fightforfreedom Jul 2022 OP

Another rule that will be completely ignored when Republicans take Eliot Rosewater Jul 2022 #2

Probably spot on. rubbersole Jul 2022 #3

I heard 90 days also. gab13by13 Jul 2022 #5

Trump is not running for anything in November Walleye Jul 2022 #4

That was my opinion also, gab13by13 Jul 2022 #6

Exactly. Even if he announces, the POTUS election is over two years away. Sibelius Fan Jul 2022 #8

Agree. This rule would only apply to wnylib Jul 2022 #23

True about trump, but what about Jordan, Boebert, MTG, Gohmert, etc. ad nauseum. panader0 Jul 2022 #16

They are just enablers. Trump is the real criminal Walleye Jul 2022 #17

True, but Democrats could use those extra seats in the House. panader0 Jul 2022 #21

Use their crimes to campaign against them Walleye Jul 2022 #22

Yep which works with dems and reps (link) uponit7771 Jul 2022 #42

Those enablers are running and with arrest / charges they wouldn't be or would have a less chance uponit7771 Jul 2022 #41

Isn't that what he's pretending to be doing right now via rallies? msfiddlestix Jul 2022 #26

Yes. But the election he's running for isn't until 2024 Walleye Jul 2022 #27

Right? I wondered if that was your point, but I don't think it matters for Trump. msfiddlestix Jul 2022 #29

I'm just thinking that if the rule is 60 or 90 days before an election. That would be in 2024 Walleye Jul 2022 #31

That certainly would be logical and the sop for campaigning the norm msfiddlestix Jul 2022 #38

Yes he will, he stays out of jail that way looking at the history of the DOJ uponit7771 Jul 2022 #40

I believe that applies to those who are running in an election. Trump and most of his cronies aren't pnwmom Jul 2022 #7

That may be so, but this investigation is unique to say the least. fightforfreedom Jul 2022 #9

Why not? gab13by13 Jul 2022 #11

I have three words for you usonian Jul 2022 #10

A good argument can be made that Comey cost Hillary the presidency. gab13by13 Jul 2022 #12

Comey wrote a private email, and it was leaked by a Repuke FakeNoose Jul 2022 #13

Per the plan. dchill Jul 2022 #28

And the rest of the FBI GOP smugsters. Like to see their phone logs on 1/6 as well as SS. Evolve Dammit Jul 2022 #33

another made up memo guideline that comey didn't follow RANDYWILDMAN Jul 2022 #14

I think Garland wants to know who will Mr.Bill Jul 2022 #15

He's banking on republicans taking the house so this vanishes and he doesn't have to do anything. PSPS Jul 2022 #18

Garland then has over 2 years to indict Trump and his sycophants Mr. Ected Jul 2022 #19

Where are you getting that timeline?! Mad_Machine76 Jul 2022 #43

Fuck Garland's 60 day policy. What the hell is his policy to the application of RULE OF LAW. ancianita Jul 2022 #20

This! BlackSkimmer Jul 2022 #32

Unless someone feels "mildly nauseous". KPN Jul 2022 #24

YES and sorely needed JT45242 Jul 2022 #25

I expect that Garland will wait until after the election. Kablooie Jul 2022 #30

It seems the ever moving goalposts are moving again. former9thward Jul 2022 #34

After the midterms, it will be too close to the Presidential election. Chainfire Jul 2022 #35

I think the reason is very simple and straightforward: ecstatic Jul 2022 #36

Makes sense. But a pro criminal like TFG requires live love laugh Jul 2022 #37

***THANK YOU!!!*** And charges / arrest affect dem and rep election decisions (link) uponit7771 Jul 2022 #39
