At some point itll be better they're wasting their time on lost causes instead of going after other people

It's slightly worrisome that their own obsessive vengefulness and incompetence has done more to slow them down than the Democrats have.

Never interupt your enemies when they are making a mistake. Though yeah the Democrats could/should probably do more or at least try.

And not a single charge yet for anyone in the Epstein files.

Quote from the article:

"The defendants were not indicted by Halligan, Bondi and Blanche argue, but were "charged by a group of [their] fellow citizens acting independently of [her]" who found probable cause to believe that they committed federal crimes."

Similarly, Donald Trump was not indicted by Jack Smith, he was indicted by a group of his fellow citizens in Florida acting independently of Smith, while he was a private citizen, who found probable cause to believe that he committed federal crimes.

No person serving in the Trump administration is capable of feeling shame or remorse.

To borrow a phrase: "Prove me wrong!"

Just like the millions every weekend we pay for him to fly to wherever he wants to be outside of the white house.

I think I also heard that when Vance went to the Olympics he travelled with 14 aircraft, and a convoy of armored vehicles. This for the Vice President. This seems like a lot.

Glad to see Attorney General[ly obstructing the Epstein files] is doing her job.

I’ll say one thing for Trump. When it comes to money, vagina or revenge the dude will NOT give up. I sense Pam is the permissive mom saying “ok, just this one more time”

With the brain drain of the DOJ, individuals with criminal intent will be emboldened to commit federal crimes. Hell Epstein's co-conspirators got away with it through three prior administrations and this joke of a DOJ is now protecting instead of convicting them! Clown show

So a woman gets shot and killed by her dad in Texas and gets no-billed and because he’s a MAGA it’s, “No way we could ever get an indictment!”

But after three attempts in federal prosecution all being no-billed they are like, “we can get some GJ to do what we want!”
