Right now. The FBI wanted to shut down the Trump stolen document investigation after the Corcoran/Bobb letter saying that all documents had been turned over.
Merrick Garland who "was" know for protecting our institutions may be unwittingly destroying them.
Big segment coming up about Wray talking on Fox News.

Baseball coach (Billy Martin)) said he didn't argue with the umpires to get that call reversed. He argued with the umpire to try and stop him from making any further calls against his team.
I fear that with the 40,000 hours of video given to Fox, defendants in Jan. 6th trials will be able to delay their prosecutions until they can view the evidence, and they'll run out the clock.

what was your point?
Garland is destroying our institutions by blocking the FBI from destroying our institutions?

(21,319 posts)Trump has been waging a war against our institutions, especially the FBI. Think Jamed Comey, Don McGahn, Peter Strzok, Lisa Page, all of those attacks are paying dividends today. Frank Figliusi even opined that there are FBI agents who are afraid to take on Trump.
FBI agent Peter Strzok on Wednesday said former President Trump and others successfully chilled the FBIs willingness to investigate anything Trump-related, complicating later inquiries into the former presidents handling of classified document.

(21,319 posts)Individual one should have been indicted in March 2021, the Cyber Ninjas should have been prosecuted, instead of a stern letter. That fake pro-Trump company enabled the Big Lie to spread which was the rallying cry on 1/6.
Hopefully Jack Smith can catch up.

(36,460 posts)A Midas Touch vid about the real consequences of McCarthy's turning over all that J6 committee footage. J6 defendants & those who have been convicted, are going to demand more time & retrials, claiming the footage has evidence they need to prove their innocence. This vid claims it's already happening with proud boys & oath keepers.
So for those who say Garland is working his way up the pyramid, how much delay will this cause? Will we get to the top before Trump is president again? 11 million more people voted for him in 2020 than 2016. How many more people will vote for him next time because they figure he didn't really do anything wrong since he was never indicted?

(21,319 posts)later on I can post Nicolle's 1st hour.
Something else that was said, I think from Frank Figliusi, was, now Kevin Mccarthy, who is the puppet of MTG, is now taking the place of a judge in deciding what discovery gets handed over to the defense, to the Magats who attacked our Capitol.
Just imagine, Marjorie Taylor Green was expelled from her committees is now telling Kevin McCarthy to help the Magats who stormed the Capitol.
I can release more: Matt Gaetz in a committee hearing today introduced into the Congressional record a propaganda article written by an arm of Communist China. Gaetz is following orders from Trump to stop supporting Ukraine.
The insurrection has grown since 1/6/2021.
