The disgraceful Republicans in Washington.

They are a disgrace to our country, our veterans, and our Constitution.

I am no fan of the FBI, or the CIA, or the bureaucracy in Washington, but I'm less of a fan of what the Republicans are attempting to replace it with.

All their talk about "weaponization" of the justice Department is pure horseshit. What would they have done if a mob of Democrats had invaded our Capitol and tried to stop or delay the last election certification? What would they have said if Joe Biden had loaded bank boxes full of classified documents and taken them to his home? What would they have done if Biden had refused to turn them over, after being asked several times by the FBI?

Would they be OK if the Supreme Court said that Biden was immune from any charges because he was the President? Of course not!

That is the world we are living in and it is a disgrace. A frigging disgrace!

They weaponized the DOJ in Trumps first term. Bondi is a pay-to-(not)play AG. Etc.
