    Seems that any day that ended in a y, demoralized the DOJ with as much gusto as they seemed to lack actually charging and prosecuting, always errering on the side of caution, allowing the fascist criminal to take control of the United States government, well, as lock as they didn’t stick their necks out, they’ll still lose their jobs, to people who will destroy the entire rule of law. Good work, folks, excellent public service.

      I don’t think we can say they were erring on the side of caution. A cautious person would have seen what happened in efforts to get state election results thrown out, on January 6th, and of course they would have pursued all of those prosecution efforts as soon as possible. Because if they waited, you would get what we have here today, and everybody knew it.

      It could be because their bosses wouldn’t let them do their jobs. Now things will be even worse. They will be set like dogs onto people for political reasons, while still unable to prosecute those who deserve it.

        It’s not good enough to blame it on their bosses. Everyone there had the option to speak up, to go find some senators to talk to, to talk to the press, to quit their jobs in protest. If they didn’t do that, then they put themselves before the general public. And I understand they may have had practical reasons for doing so, but it was still their choice not to act.
