In high school I used to put candy bars in a super big gulp cup and then fill in with Slurpee to cover the candy bars and then just pay for the Slurpee.

So should I be expecting at moment to hear that a special counsel is being appointed to investigate those actions?

Should have appointed Durham. He knows how to look for shit that doesn't exist.

We can hardly wait for the screaming when Special Counsel Jack Smith puts Trump in prison

If Merrick Garland wanted to put this fat, obnoxious Terrorist in prison he has the full power and authority of the United States Constitution to do so and didn't need to pass the football to Jack Smith.

So the fact he didn't means he don't wanna.

So sad. So weak.

You only eat leaf, Merrick Garland? 😘https://uploads.disquscdn.c...

Let me guess...

Besides identifying as so-called "women", they're all smug, self righteous, obnoxious assholes whose Job #1 is fellating Forrest Dump?

The Great Karnac/Sultan of Swing will now reveal the answer that was sequestered in an old Mayonnaise jar under the porch.

Drum roll, please. 🥁https://media3.giphy.com/me...

Thanks for talking me down, Evan. Gotta go, my special prosecutors here.

As your informal counsel, I would advise you to stay away from ledges and cliffs next to the Grand Canyon.

I read a short story about a college student who had to work in a diner to pay his tuition. Other students with rich parents would sometimes put his tip, in coins (old story) into the plate from which they had eaten pancakes with maple syrup. He refused to take the coins out. That’s how I feel about candy wrappers covered with Slurpee.

I look forward to maggats complaining there are two kinds of justice, one for the guilty and another for the innocent.

(conversation overheard in the Oval Office)

Joe: Merrick. Come in already. Always good to see you. "What's up?" as my grand kids always say.

Merrick: Are you purposely having your people finding these documents just to make my work harder?

Joe: Not at all Merrick. Why would you think that?

Merrick: Because I already have multiple shitstorm justice issues about your predecessor bubbling away on the front burners 24-7.

Joe: Good to hear that you are taking care of those issues too, Merrick! I wouldn't want to think that you have been loafing on the job! No. I am not trying to make your life harder.

Merrick: Thank God! I was beginning to wonder...

Joe: Gotcha Merrick! I can't resist pulling your leg! The answer to your question is that of course I am having my people dig this stuff up right now and creating a teachable moment as a good friend of mine likes to call them. In fact I had all the documents planted in these locations about six months ago just so my people could "discover" them this week.

Merrick: What the fuck Joe!!!!

Joe: Calm down Merrick! Put the stapler down already!

Merrick: Why I oughta...

Joe: Seriously Merrick, I don't want to have the Secret Service come in here. I cannot trust them not to murder me in a "crossfire accident".

Merrick: OK. (long pause) Please Mr. President, can you share with me, your AG, the reason why you are doing this?

Joe: Of course I will Merrick. I'm doing this two years away from the next election to create a compare and contrast example of how my style of doing things is different from the criminal down in Florida. Of course it is risky. But when it comes to the electoral politics of the Presidency there is always going to be risk. That cannot be avoided. But I need to keep beating the drum about how this guy stole state secrets and this is a way to keep that drumbeat going.

Merrick: Whoa! They told me you had balls. But I didn't know they were the size of grapefruit.

Joe: G'wan! Get the fuck out'a here. I'm a busy man.

(Merrick Garland stands up to leave)

Joe: Oh Merrick! Before you go! I want you to appoint a Special Prosecutor to investigate this.

Merrick: Dare I ask why you want this?

Joe: (with a twinkle in his eye and a wolf's grin) No. Please do not ask. It's better if it's a surprise.

The investigation needs to be thorough. If there was wrong doing, the law needs to be followed.

The GQP only recently seemed concerned over classified documents for about a week when they were found at Biden's place. Tfg? Not at all.

They seem to think this gets tfg off the hook somehow. Nope. Bust them both depending on where the investigations leave.

If Biden was doing some shadey business, I will be very disappointed, but it is what is.
