So... who's sitting on Vol. 2 now? C_U_L8R Jan 2025 #1

Cannon, not Garland. You don't get to push Garland to violate the law because you won't suffer consequences Bernardo de La Paz Jan 2025 #4

garland admitted cannon does not have that authority. Think. Again. Jan 2025 #5

Yes, but until the courts rule against her, her ruling has temporary authority. Breaking it is breaking the law Bernardo de La Paz Jan 2025 #9

She does not have temporary authority... Think. Again. Jan 2025 #11

They are not in her court, but she has ruled. Until a judge is over-ruled, their rulings hold sway Bernardo de La Paz Jan 2025 #15

judges can't just go ruling on cases that are not in their courts. Think. Again. Jan 2025 #17

Correct. They can't. But they do. And until they are corrected, their rulings stay current and enforceable Bernardo de La Paz Jan 2025 #21

Yes, they can't. Think. Again. Jan 2025 #24

Still with this Garland defense? He failed spectacularly to. prosecute and jail trump. Now the traitor... brush Jan 2025 #6

it's more valid than the lies spread that Garland was inactive or delayed something. bigtree Jan 2025 #12

It's not complicated. Not immediately investigating, indicting, prosecuting and convicting trump first thing... brush Jan 2025 #20

it actually is complicated bigtree Jan 2025 #30

Nah, Garland failed horribly. Nothing complicated about that fact., on that trump takes over again in a few days... brush Jan 2025 #39

that's not true at all bigtree Jan 2025 #40

I say Garland failed horribly, you disagree. Let's leave it at that. brush Jan 2025 #41

It's not a defence, it is a more balanced perspective. Even Biden was disappointed in Garland Bernardo de La Paz Jan 2025 #18

You realize Smith just skipped over the first 2 years in his report, right? Think. Again. Jan 2025 #7

You don't cite the Smith report at all iemanja Jan 2025 #19

imagine if Garland put this much effort into correcting misinformation! That might have helped. thebigidea Jan 2025 #34

no prosecutor discusses ongoing prosecutions in public bigtree Jan 2025 #36

Nor do they discuss cases that they don't want to prosecute for political reasons. republianmushroom Jan 2025 #37

we know that the AG doesn't just bring forward charges on his own will and whim bigtree Jan 2025 #38

We all so know trump committed more crimes than what he was indicted for. republianmushroom Jan 2025 #42
