for Dump to appoint Merrick Garland to his cabinet, to thank him for letting him skate for four years. It’s almost as if a deal was made at the beginning….

"Don't worry. We have a resilient system. It will correct itself."?

The system doesn't correct itself when we don't use it.

If the Founders were here today, none of them would be surprised that a sinister creature, the likes of Trump, would have materialized sometime in 240 years. There is nothing surprising about that.

But they would be horrified at this do-nothing AG and the cowardice of the Republicans in Congress. I think they would be saying, "Seriously? We risked everything: our freedom, our livelihoods, even our lives for this country, and you all just stood by while one man destroyed all of it?"

All of the ones who sided with the traitor Trump and his insurrection should’ve been locked up. And the SCrOTUS 6, too.

18 USC 2384: Seditious conspiracy -- for waging war on the United States, conspiring to overthrow the Government 1/6. More serious because the maximum penalty the criminals sentenced is 20 years.
18 U.S. Code § 2383 - Rebellion or insurrection is maximum is 10 years.

Clever by half Fugelsang can go suck it.
