Trump aid testified that Attorney General nominee asked for a pardon

https://www.cnn.com/2022/09/17/politics/matt-gaetz-trump-pardon-justice-department/index.html

It appears the criminals will be running the Justice Dept, the quacks will be in charge of our health, fake wrestling promoters will be responsible for education, and the crazies have taken over the asylum.

Dr Hunter S Thompson was right; When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

Merrick Garland was Attorney General and last I checked, he has nor prosecuted anyone close to TSF.

Peter Navarro and Steve Bannon were criminal referrals from the J6 committee.
