No one is saying that.
That is a world away from people expressing doubt - based on evident lack of activity and observation of the January 6 Committee's evident worry - that Garland will ever get to those committing the biggest crimes.
Personally, I am with the January 6th Committee. I am extremely worried that those at the top will not be held responsible.
I get that others disagree with me strongly. They believe he is conducting secret investigations and will bring the hammer down all at once.
I am able to understand and express that viewpoint without misrepresenting what those who hold it are saying.
I am truly appalled that those who hold the opinion that all is well with the investigations are not able to hear my opposing opinion without laying on it the kind of ridiculous misrepresentation in your post.
No one is saying justice cannot be done. What we are saying is that justice is not being done. Obviously. And we need it to start being done soon.
And personally, I'm out of fucks to give when I see all the "Fitzmas is right around the corner" and "Merrick Garland has them all under double-secret probation" and "he charged some rioters with insurrection so that proves that everyone is going down" and "I hate all the negative nellies who aren't really good Democrats" nonsense that I am seeing.
Our Democracy has been on a knife edge for 13 months. We are in danger. Every month that passes increases that danger. If my worry and frustration about that is offensive to you, so be it. Seems like there are no fucks anywhere any more.
