95. The Biden AG delayed the Jan 6th investigation until it was too late. And ignored the Epstein Files.

Fri Feb 6, 2026, 04:54 PM

Friday

We all know the damage Garland did by dragging his foot on the Jan 6th investigations

But the Epstein Files also were ignored. Why? To protect Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Somners and billionaire class Democratic party donors? That they felt any gain in exposure against Trump and other Republicans would not be worth the exposure within their own ranks? All while survivors suffered? Not a good look.

I agree. They, hopefully, have one more shot. No more "we must move forward" before we address what happened behind us. Because if not, it will embolden the Fascists to go even further. And there is a further, despite the horrors of today.
