Pam Bondi will have "committed a crime" if she does not fully comply with the deadline to release ALL of the files, not a trickle.OTHER THAN BONDI REPLYING "BLOW ME," AND NOTHING WHATSOEVER HAPPENING TO HER, what do we expect the fallout to be? That's what will happen, right? She'll do that Pammie scowl and yell "BLOW ME" and Congress will say "Whatever you say, m'am."
DO WE THINK she will FULLY COMPLY? Seems to me that if she does, she's putting herself in the crosshairs for America's Favorite Rapin' Grampy's wrath.
CONTEXT:
Republican Rep. Thomas Massie, who led the charge to circumvent GOP leadership and force the legislation, warned that the DOJ would be committing a crime if they do not abide by next weeks deadline.
Its a crime if they dont. Its not like theyre in contempt of Congress because they didnt respond to a subpoena. This is a new law with criminal implications if they dont follow it, the Kentucky Republican said.
Massie noted, however, that he was encouraged that more grand jury materials have been released to the DOJ.
Garcia called Friday for the administration to release what they can now, rather than wait until the deadline, and noted that there are other photos that are incredibly disturbing.

They won't always be in power. Within 3-8 years she will face consequences.

Waiting three to eight years to address any of this is the real crime. (n/t)

But, clearly, they don't ever intend to leave power. Dictatorships are not forever though.

...being AWARE of Trump's taunts and threats to never leave, but never BUYING INTO IT.
I have no idea how America will react if...as an example...he either tries to CANCEL the 2028 election, or if Newsom or any other Dem wins, running to the SCOTUS for another Bush v Gore "ruling," regardless of the margin of victory.
He's threatening ALL of that, including simply refusing to leave.
And I'm not going to spend the next 3 years cowering in fear over what he "might" do.
