I worked on the defense side of cases like US v Gotti and everyone on the other side was intelligent, competent and forthright. The current crop all the way to the AG spot, are people who would have failed even the electiive criminal law class. It's a disgrace.

Looks like the same BS as the Senate overview of key administration figures. RFK Jr. Pure bullshit. Legal consequences? Zero. Will it happen next time? Absolutely. There must be legal consequences for overt mendacity by justices, Congress members and administration figures.

Agreed and it’s so maddening. In this scenario I refer to the scotus nominees who say anything to get to the bench only to reveal their true natures once they know it’s No Backsies time. But we can vote in senators who have the right moral fiber to know better.

I have had firsthand experience with the complete uselessness of the federal judiciary and DOJ... I DO in fact know it - we need far more evidence to prove it, however, to at least the non-MAGAT voters.... We need to get this outrageousness right up in the faces of the voting public.

Nothing to see here, another MAGA moron lying for the supreme liar. It all tracks. And if this washed lawyer is appointed what kind of decisions can we expect? He's going to be a federal judge that advocates for ignoring court decisions. Oh the fucking irony of it all. FFS

This repulsive excuse for a person cannot be allowed a lifetime appointment to the federal judiciary--a body he has treated with contempt--given his repeated violation of his oaths to uphold the Constitution.

Why, back in my day sonny when a high-level White House power player was caught committing crimes, he went to jail! And before that all we ever heard about Haldeman Erlichman and John Mitchell was how important they were. Wild how a conviction that isn't pardoned can render bad people invisible

We live in a lawless society. Laws mean nothing. One group has no laws, and the rest of us are stuck with made up, unfair laws that can be changed or invented on a whim to suit that first group. IT’S A SICK GAME BEING PLAYED ON US. Why the fuck are we still playing along??

🤦‍♀️ I sure hope there are enough votes to block that appointment but I doubt we could be so lucky. Where are all the people with a conscience these days? Are there no more morals in politics? In people at all? It’s just all so disheartening. I know they want us to give up, and I’m not, but man….

I don’t have the luxury of giving up. I lost my home country to a totalitarian regime (Venezuela). So, I need this country to make it. I dont know what is wrong with ppl. Look at NY! How can ppl vote for Cuomo??? How can we expect a dash of honesty, with his record?

Of course because the other 2 branches of government are letting the executive branch do it. Then they want us Americans to support them. I say FUCK them. I wish nothing but the worst for all of them. That's how fucking mad I am right now and you should be too.

No offense but it’s terrifying that we’re at a place where the words “Justice Dept. leader suggested violating court orders“ are considered *milquetoast* I read those words and think 5-alarm fire…

You’ve 2nd amendment, and your forefathers gave it to you for precisely this kind of administration. It’s baffling how the entire nation up in arms (pun intended) defending that 2A when kids are shot now all of the sudden forgets it exists…

When the whistle blows, vilified histories emerge; because the truth threatens those in power. Whistleblowers face backlash not for lies, but for revealing realities others want buried. Truth disrupts, exposes, and challenges the status quo. Respect those who dare to speak up.”

Well .. Trump always said he wanted his Roy Cohn. He resembled the Lady Elaine Fairchilde puppet from Mr Rogers, and if you remember that show, that was a pretty sinister looking puppet. He tends to like his evil villains to look the part. Bove is the new Cohn.

If Feds just kidnap and send brown people to foreign gulags, then those brown people are going to start defending themselves. Good luck rounding up 66M people with 2M military/cops/national guard.
