(90,226 posts)...and look to want attention paid to the imaginings in your head that you project against a substantive investigation and prosecution packed full of the things most of Garland critics claim don't exist, or ever happened.
It's not a serious discussion, so I'm left with little but to talk past you for anyone interested with the actual investigation, and not the internet fantasy prosecution game.
Your interests are evidently are at odds with the facts in this case, as your conclusions are void of them.
More curious is this expectation that the DOJ investigating and prosecuting the AG's boss's political rival in this election, for election interference in the last one, should have been perversely and contradictorily advantaged by a converse political focus by Biden's DOJ on winning the election.
Facts about the actual investigation and prosecution aside, that political focus by DOJ you proscribe would be a perversion of justice, and a contradiction; an anathema to everything people claim they oppose about what Trump did along with his DOJ attempting to prosecute his political rivals when he was in office.
All the more perverse a criticism of Garland when nothing he could do, charging or convicting Trump, legally disqualified him from running or assuming office, even from jail.
Moreover, any honest look at the prospects for completing his efforts before the election would take into account the two to three years, minimum, it would take to complete appeals AFTER CONVICTION through a maze of often republican or Trump-appointed judges willing to delay the hearings as long as they are able.
It's facts like these, evidently of no interest to you, that make a mockery of all of this derision of Garland without proof of anything but 'time passed' and the thoughts inside of one's head.
...and, btw, I take all of this on because I can - because I'm mad able, not because of some love for some pol or cop. But I can see how dissembling that is to arguments accustomed to getting a page full of hurrahs everytime so much as a sentence of fact-free and infactual derision about Garland is written.
Lol, hurrah, fwiw.
