Yeah, you can get a ham sandwich indicted, but you need cold, hard facts when you walk in the courtroom. Remember Trump's 61 evidence-free cases?

If I remember correctly, the correct response to whataboutism is the wanking motion. Our resident Doctor of Rhetoric could confirm.

It's a cultural thing that permeates Republicanism. Nixon resigned when he learned that he was going to be impeached and the Senate Republicans were going to support it. That has morphed into the Democrats railroaded Nixon out of office, and the party will not rest until they exact their pound of flesh in their opponents.

Here is Jim Jordan's current congressional district, from the map that was chosen by a federal judge after the Ohio Supreme Court rejected it as unconstitutional.

OMG yes! I didn’t know it was called that and now I do. I really hope Jordan gives them another opportunity so they can do exactly that. Lol!

Yeah, but Gym thinks he's an investigator (or at least acts like he does), so I guess it fits as parody. As someone who's listened to a lot of radio P.I.s from the 50s, I can say Gary got the tone pretty much dead on.

He's riffing on T***p's (and the rest of the Right's) accusations that Bragg is ignoring "real" crimes to focus on this "bogus" (according to them) prosecution of tfg. So if he were to commit some of those "real" crimes, the police would just let him go. It doesn't make a lot of sense, I wouldn't exhaust too much brainpower on it.
