They were PHYSICAL crimes (bombings and other physical acts of violence). Garland is prosecuting the physical crimes of 1/6 as well.

What he is not doing is prosecuting the political crimes at the inner circle.

I am decidedly not convinced he will get anywhere near trump. Clarke is a doj stooge who likely broke multiple laws in plain sight, and which his own IG is running with. Eastman an outsider. The fake electors are way out of state.

The real leaders? Not so much.

He is free to prove me wrong any time, but we will be having this argument until he resigns I'm afraid.

So the McVeigh arrest was easy. But getting the evidence wnylib Jul 2022 #13

Not a great comparison. former9thward Jul 2022 #35

McVeigh was arrested for not having a license plate on the car he was driving BumRushDaShow Jul 2022 #37

Jan 6th was 18 months ago. former9thward Jul 2022 #38

And I shouldn't even have to point out WHO was in charge of DOJ BumRushDaShow Jul 2022 #40

Nothing you are saying relates to the OP or even the general issue. former9thward Jul 2022 #56

Your recitation of what happened with McVeigh BumRushDaShow Jul 2022 #61

Reno? former9thward Jul 2022 #66

I think you forgot what YOU posted BumRushDaShow Jul 2022 #68

He did do the investigation, MarineCombatEngineer Jul 2022 #69

The poster I replied to said Reno did the investigation. former9thward Jul 2022 #70

You're really nit picking here. MarineCombatEngineer Jul 2022 #71

It is interesting the both you and the other poster are totally ignoring the Unabomber former9thward Jul 2022 #73

You are the one missing the point of the OP BumRushDaShow Jul 2022 #76

I was not the one who claimed Garland was the lead investigator of the Unabomber case. former9thward Jul 2022 #77

One fly in the soup...They never pinned down nor exposed the RW network which enabled McVeigh and Ford_Prefect Jul 2022 #36

This recent thread discusses that: sop Jul 2022 #49

Yep there had to be many more people involved yet roam free. JanMichael Jul 2022 #54

And a few who perhaps help pay for it, or enabled the events. Ford_Prefect Jul 2022 #64
