It's "the US is a Mafia state" (read the title), "woven of decades of deceit and impunity". And it accuses Jamie Gorelick of being the chief operative of this "Mafia state" in the DOJ. It is a massive, paranoid, conspiracy theory. It does not accuse Garland of being "a sorry AG", it accuses him of being utterly corrupt. The disgusting Kendzior was calling Biden a "placeholder" in Nov 2023, and saying she'd said that since mid-2021.

What you're promoting here as "mind-blowing" is a lunatic far-left "Dems and Repubs are all in it together as criminals" conspiracy theory. It is, frankly, the kind of thing that it you'd excerpted any 4 paragraphs of it in the OP would have got it hidden, because it's as bad as anything from Jill Stein.

It's like the people saying "RFK Jr makes good points - sugar is bad for us, and we can ignore the anti-vax antisemitic crap that he spends 99% of hie tims and energy on".
