Possible. But if all of that has paralyzed him to the point that it is impacting the pace of investigations ... he is in *way* over his head and was the wrong person for the job.

They all look like Meatball. Look at the rep who voted against marriage equality then went to his son’s gay wedding.

Identify as such? Such what? That doesn't even make sense. You have been cavalierly and rudely dismissive of anyone who disagrees with you on the subject. Here's another example:

"No, he's on the shit list with the instant gratification media obsessed faction."

There is, whether or not you care to admit it, a serious body of opinion from some very accomplished lawyers who are concerned that the DOJ under Garland is not pursuing this vigourously enough. To take those concerns seriously does not make anyone equivalent to an anti-vaxxer, which is what you are saying.

Anyway, I'm done with this. Have a nice evening.

Uh, huh. I'll believe it when I see it.

I'm just honestly surprised that he hasn't announced some BS indictment against Biden or Harris yet, 'Telling the truth while holding a political office' or some such.

Of course prosecuting him for any of the other blatant crimes that he committed either before or after holding office is out of the question. Fraud, tax evasion, aiding and abetting, concealing an internationally sought fugitive, money laundering, those are no longer crimes when one has been president?

Do you have proof of him being paralyzed, or is the absence of evidence of that all you need?

An operative? One of the largest drug smugglers in Asia? Seriously?

Meuller made his career protecting the rich and powerful, there was no doubt how his report was going to couch even the most definitive of findings. I've always figured that was why he was chosen for the job.

Of course you are. Everyone knows Joe Biden can't do anything but destroy the country.

Ok, fair, that may be too far. Can't find an article from a couple/could be five years ago, but his pattern is strange enough to move beyond "random billionaire fucking things up with Bannon"

This outlines his vast media disinfo empire https://www.washingtonpost....He's so much like a one-man RT you have to wonder WTF is going on and who's behind/with him besides Old Three Shirts.

When I worked for a state agency, that happened a lot. "I pay your salary with my taxes!"

The standard response was, "I pay my salary with my taxes, too."

We don't listen because we're tired of seeing the rich and powerful get away with everything over and over and over. Just like is going to happen this time, too.

I'd think tfg could be charged with multiple offenses.

No - those are the easy ones because they are proven by records and do not require a showing of motive, and they are not off the table.

However, Wonkette does not want mail fraud - they want J6.
