Merrick Garland was too weak to go after Trump. Seemed like Garland wanted to have every piece of evidence before proceeding until the J6 committee forced his hand. Trump should have been arrested years before Jack Smith was appointed.

A long time ago, SCOTUS ruled that corporations have the same rights as people. This has been a gigantic mistake.

MTG is showing everyone that all she's done or will do is an act; it is all political theater. She was capable of acting maturely in the past and made a conscientious choice not to.
