I blame Merrick Garland. Four years to give orange turd and friends consequences of their actions, and the dude sits on his thumbs because doing so would “seem political”. Some guy who shot another guy in the street is up for terrorism charges, but the head man of an insurrection is now going to be president. All because the spineless Garland didn’t want to “look political”. Justice is dead guys.

I suspect Merrick Garland is about to find out just how political the DOJ can be...
Like he cares lol
He'll care when he becomes the target of political retribution. Trump's already made it abundantly clear that's he's going to wield the DOJ as a tool of revenge.
I fucking can't stand this. It was political to NOT enforce the law.
The lesson I've learned is that if I plan on committing federal crimes, I need to first form a PAC for president.
raising concerns of authoritarianism
Thank you, my concerns have been raised. Could Trump be an authoritarian?
Too soon to say for sure /s
15 House Democrats voted to allow the Secretary of the Treasury to declare any non-profit to be terrorist supporting with no due process and remove their tax exempt status. The bill is all but certain to pass in the next Congress.
Yeah, with a goal of supporting Israel harder. Because Israel buys our politicians, both sides.
The issue is, is that any 'fraud' or unreported/untaxed revenue would be almost negligible compared to for-profit organizations, making it rather... Wait for it... Inefficient.
So, I guess mister Martian man department is actually DOGI
They said awful things, terribly huge, awfu- you should hear the things they say, ask anybody, they'll tell you and we're going to stop the terrible bad things-horribly bad. That's right, for America.
