(2,676 posts)So that's what Aileen Cannon is supposed to dread?
Justice matters.
(6,955 posts)that the IC's assessment of the possibly irreparable damages to the national security of the United States of America cannot be done in full if the FBI investigation is impeded to proceed? IOW, they can't do the job separately! One doesn't do it without the tools the other has!
Heck, it's also their own lives and those of their families at risk here (they don't care about others than them I know) every minute this sordid crime remains unpunished!
Now come on...

(206,571 posts)It's enormously shocking that a former president would have so many pending charges against him - but it's even more shocking that someone as corrupt and lawless would ascend to the presidency at all! Not to mention that he's still on the loose, able to attack the DOJ and the current government - and to incite violence from extremist groups and his deluded "supporters!" Here we thought we were out of the woods when he was soundly defeated in 2020, but he's yet another plague on this country that won't go away!

(22,676 posts)I wouldn't hold my breath. I absolutely expect her to do the wrong thing, side against legal precedent, and side against our national security interests. These people live in their own "alternative reality," remember? In their view risking millions or billions of human lives on their careless reckless decisions DOES NOT matter, so long as they get their way. And why would she do otherwise? She fears not being impeached. That will never happen, so there's no repercussions of her actions, for her anyway.

(21,711 posts)In parts of Latin America, the going joke about judges is that sin propina, no camina.
'They won't walk (with you) without a tip'.
Aileen's definitely from that school of Latin jurisprudence - if not the Inquisition.

LO'D is a Treasure to Democracy! I remember when he had that car accident and we were all so worried about him!
