In reply to the discussion: I think Garland needs to come out [View all]bigtree
(94,314 posts)...disinfo about the man who began the prosecution of Trump in fall of 2021 at the latest, accusing Biden's AG of dereliction without a shred of proof.
All of this on a Democratic message board where I wouldn't have expected to find people railing against the man holding trump and his rioters accountable.
You posted an untruth and got called on it. If you had proof of what you claimed you'd post it.
For conversation's sake, show proof that Garland's investigation wasn't 'top down' as I've shown here. Dispute these facts, if you're able.
All of this anguish, but I'm showing you that Garland was extremely involved in investigating Trump from as early as fall of 2021.
Converse on that.
Many of the 'simpletons' who led the riot were charged with Sedition and obstructing the vote. The very same obstruction charge against the rioters has been leveled as one of the two election interference charges against Trump.
That obstruction charge is the subject of a SC challenge right now about it's validity. The two prosecutions, the AG and the SC's are inextricably linked.
For example:
In recent months, however, the financial investigation has sought information about Trumps post-election Save America PAC and other funding of people who assisted Trump, according to subpoenas viewed by CNN. The financial investigation picked up steam as DOJ investigators enlisted cooperators months after the 2021 riot, one of the sources said.

...converse on that.
Tell us again about the importance of the 'simpletons' who Garland's investigators investigated and Jack Smith integrated into his own investigation over a year later; probing their 'Save America' pac, and investigating money laundering.
If this is what's visible in the mostly secret probe, imagine all of the other efforts you missed in this really bad summary of events of yours.
Converse.
