I said earlier Merrick Garland has been our Attorney General since March 11th. I cannot help but think he is on it. And our current Vice President is the exact one that posed the question about investigations to Barr. And speaking of Vice Presidents, despicable Pence just squeaked at the quickly decreasing wiggle room he lives in.

And to be quite honest, I’ve always feared who is pulling the strings rather than Trump himself. My focus is that the Justice Dept will bring THAT to light of day. And then the people will make mincemeat of that influence at the polls.
Well Biden needs to throw some $$$ at the DOJ and good people with those skill need to think about going back to work at the DOJ. That kind of “service” is every bit as important as landing on the Beach at Normandy. It is not heroic, there are no medals to be had, it is surely a grind and frustrating, but we desperately need all those hands on deck to straighten our course and do right by the rule of law. Otherwise we are just a freaking banana republic like the rest of them, How did we not learn from the Nixon admin’s shenanigans and do what needed to be done to strengthen our democratic institutions?
I almost feel nostalgic for Gerald Ford. He was just a party hack, enamored of the status quo, a decent guy without visible vices thinking inside the box, little leadership capacity, not too big on the vision thing, but a breath of fresh air -- well, air freshener -- after Tricky Dicky stunk up the place. The pardon was both the most important and worst thing he did as President. Strange that he survived 2 assassination attempts in the space of 17 days, some sort of record, I guess. Squeaky Fromme: now there's a footnote from history.

Why did we not learn from the Nixon's shenanigans?
Because Ford pardoned Nixon, which communicated that if you are the powerful/rich elite, you will not be held accountable for your misdeeds.
Like taxes, Two Justice systems. One for the ultra rich, and another fir the rest of us.
Cig, you always get to the point with some kickass responses.
Love it!
