    Merrick Garland is a member of the heritage foundation and giving him the AG was putting a conservative in charge of prosecuting conversatives. The most important part of Biden’s presidency was prosecuting Trump and he chose a fucking Republican for the job.

      Democrats always do this. They’re always ‘looking forward, not back’, and that meant that Nixon, Reagan, Bush Jr and Trump all got away with various crimes, and so did the minions that worked for all of them (like Roger Stone).

      Democrats were falling under themselves saying ‘in this country we don’t prosecute our political opponents’, followed through with that promise, and now Trump is prosecuting them.

        It’s not like they didn’t know what was coming - Biden preemptively pardoned his son in anticipation of this.

        But fuck the rest of us.

        they got too sensitive, that they are afraid offending republicans voters, who may or may not vote for them. DEMS are never going to get any R voters, in general. they dont keep the younger based engaged enough, like AOC, BERNIE AND MADHAMI WOULD.

      Do you have a source for this? I don’t think this is true, and I can’t find anything on google to support it…
