54. Maybe you're tired of believing there's no action going on because he's not making noise

The last thing we want is another Oliver North type flawed indictment. Remember how North got off cause Congress gave away too much immunity to him on ancillary questions so that he couldn't get indicted on the main charges.

Rock solid convictions are rarely tried first in the public eye. Public pressure on Garland is a good thing. Him giving into it and tipping his legal strategy would not be.
