Since there are multiple threads on this subject I will cross post this comment.

Some may see this as a failure of the DOJ. I see it as a triumph of our judicial system.

Trump spent years accusing Dems of Fake Prosecutions of real crimes, and now his Minions are following his orders for Real Prosecutions of Fake Crimes.

And the thing is, people like Bondi and Patel KNOW they are carrying out these Revenge Prosecutions, and couldn't care less that they are.

These people are proud to be Fascists.

^Exactly. THIS is a real dictatorship, folks. It just hasn't percolated ot all levels of the judiciary...YET. Imagine what might happen by...say....June 2028.

When I imagine how bad things are likely to get, I congratulate myself on my plans to retire early and leave the USA.
