The picture of a hesitant Justice Department runs contrary to the GOP allegation that the indictments of Trump were the product of a Democrat-led plot.

For months, investigators would have to wait to issue subpoenas or interview witnesses to gather new information,” the authors write, adding that Garland “had chosen to impose a very conservative interpretation of what DOJ officials called the 60-day rule,” urging prosecutors to avoid taking public investigative steps within two months of Election Day that involve candidates in that election.

    Yes. Some of the projects had gotten funded and started before Trump took office.

    The laws you referenced has still been dismantled.

    If you think the personal benefits from them outweigh the harm from not arresting an insurrectionist… I got nothing.

    The fact is, Trump is destroying America and Biden did nothing to stop it.

        Who nominated Garland to USAG? to whom did he answer to?

        you act like Biden had no power in that relationship. Garland’s job was to ride herd on the DOJ. Biden’s job (as far as this matter goes,) was to ride herd on Garland.

          Yeah absolutely Biden did. He sucked in a lot of ways, I’m just saying in terms of IRA and Infrastructure he was good.
