52. The last thing crooks in this country wanted was a prosecutor as President

Thu Nov 7, 2024, 06:17 PM

Nov 7

Too many people going down lately. Let's not get that started.

Make sense?

Did Barr or Garland really, really go after anybody?

Did the Mueller Report succeed? We haven't even read it.

Was Rod Rosenstein defending the Republic like he said? Or protecting DOJ?

Too many proseceutions lately. Trump 1,2,3 .... Menendez .... all the J6 insurrectionists.

Something might change and not in a good way if we start putting people in jail.

Don't you think so, citizen?
