(94,247 posts)...nothing but ridicule and disdain on the people prosecuting Trump.
NEVER a word about the judges and justices who held up a trial FOR FIFTEEN MONTHS, 'AFTER' CHARGES DROPPED.
Not an fucking word about Roberts, Alito, Thomas, none of the maga justices who held their decision until just before we voted (right as Democrats were pushing Joe Biden out of the race and dooming our chances in November).
I'm old enough to remember Jack Smith's revised charges where he attributed blame in that document for the Capitol riot to Donald Trump as part of his indictment. That's Garland.
Almost ALL of the evidence collected in the indictment was Garland; all of the testimony from top Trump officials, adjudicated because of Garland and made available to the grand jury. All of the extraordinary number of appeals and challenges cited in the Smith report as the reason for the delays were successfully fought by Garland's team, all the way through Smith's term.
But you will reach across all of the evidence available to parrot prattle from the paid teevee punditry who had zero access to the details of the investigation or prosecution that weren't court documents or court activity.
Let's see. Should we believe people playing the fantasy internet prosecutor game, or should we believe the Special Counsel who actually worked on the case who blamed the extraordinary amount of appeals for the delays.
I mean, Stinky, we ALL saw the Supreme Court delay the HEARING on the appeal FOR THREE MONTHS, in the time a trial could be held, and even further after they held that hearing to make an anti-constitutional decision.
Not a word about the perps obstructing with frivolous appeals which were entertained as legitimate by republican judges who diddled for months, sometimes a year before rejecting obvious stalling tactics by the defense and defense witnesses.
It's really convenient to take a prosecution that was openly and deliberately obstructed by the highest court in the land, and then bash the prosecution for not overcoming that interference by the maga court and others, as if they had some kind of magic powers to set court dates.
It's really disgusting to see people drafting their bashing of people who were prosecuting Trump, off of what those maga judges and justices did to delay the trial until we voted - all without a word about the REPUBLICANS advantaging the PERPS; the ones who actually delayed the investigation, prosecution, and trial.
Can you imagine one of those justices coming across one of these Garland posts? They'd be incredulous at their success in deflecting scrutiny from their OWN treasonous interference in the prosecution of the man who tried to overturn our presidential election and fomented a riot against the Capitol, onto the prosecutors.
Hell, Trump's DOJ is finishing off that job as we speak with Kash Patel gathering up all the names of investigators and prosecutors for the investigation and prosecution you claim didn't happen.
