2. Heh
I posted nearly the same thing a few weeks back
My greatest hope for Garland
is that he does something(s) so stunningly monumental, that Mitch and the GOP deeply and sincerely regret not having seated him on the SCOTUS instead. https://www.democraticunderground.com/100215211658 |

3. It IS a sweet thought, isn't it?
And I SO hope that Billy Barr is one of the people the DOJ puts behind bars - THAT would be GREAT!

4. The Republicans will claim it's political, since they think obeying the law is political.
The fact that they disobey the law is a reflection of their Stalinist ideas about politics, as well, of course, as their intrinsic corruption in amorality.

7. Posted here the other day
Paraphrasing: McConnell called Nancy Pelosi to say he’s ready to start Merrick Garland’s SCOTUS hearings now.

8. I hope GOP are writhing in regrets while in prison
wishing they had made better choices in life and didn't demand strict law and order for other people they don't like.

9. Both Ron Johnson and Rudy were told by the FBI of Russia's interference but they still ...
... worked to undermine our democracy while being paid by a foreign power working for Putin.
I hope A.G. Garland drops the hammer on them. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/rudy-giuliani-fbi-warning-russia/2021/04/29/5db90f96-a84e-11eb-bca5-048b2759a489_story.html |

15. Glenn Kirschner is pretty confident of that
and it wa s also my first thought when he was named. Now other are noticing too.
Try not to be discouraged by the slow pace. The DOJ cannot afford even the smallest mistake on this. |
