Attorney General Merrick Garland makes an announcement. Garland has named a special counsel to oversee the criminal investigation into former president Donald Trump.

Now who was just saying they were worried about Garland's lack of balls?

I do believe some of the Faithful were of the opinion AG Garland should step aside and appoint a Special Counsel. Now, what will they say?

If he had balls he would have arrested him when he recovered the documents. This just seems like Trump is getting preferential treatment and this could possibly drag out for a long time

I await with bated breath. I wonder if this moves Garland to the top of the impeachment pole?

And TFG will drag this out ad infinitum, do you really need a special counsel?
If he acts like a tax dodging, bank bilking, philandering conman and bullshite artiste especially given the well documented evidence to support this notion can we take away the monopoly game board and send him directly to jail?
FFS Lock him up!

I sadly agree, I think this just added a minimum of 6 months, more likely 18, and then if he's the front runner, the DOJ will pull a Mueller.

He should touch on the crimes easiest to prove. That would be national security, and election fraud providing Georgia will give him evidence.
Add: Aiding and abetting an insurrection. Duh.

New bullshitter public enemy number one: Special Counsel Jack Smith. He’s been prosecuting war crimes so are we gonna back the blue here?

Garland just cut the bullshit argument about DOJ chasing a candidate for office off at the knees. The investigation (into the coup) has been done for the most part. If it was getting dumped it would have been dumped. This is insulation from bullshit claims of politics playing a role.

Congress has said they will not share evidence because the identity of witnesses is no longer protected after they enter into judiciary hands. Let's see if that holds up now.

No comment on the Special Counsel?

Not Liz Cheney?

We know she’s on the enemies list already. Now you have a new person to bullshit about. Get busy, make mommy and daddy proud.

 

[badlatitude]

Not Liz Cheney?

Although she would be my choice, the appearance of a partisan prosecution would be evident.

Some people don't think that matters.

 

[Bus Driver]

Bring it.

I have my doubts you'll say that when the charges are filed.
