  1. STALL STALL STALL,HOW MUCH MORE EVIDENCE IS NEEDED???? IT’S OBVIOUS THAT GARLAND IS FRIGHTENED TO CHARGE HIM. TOTALLY PATHETIC!!!!!

    1. @Seadonkey6 it weird to us watching people favor a lifelong pathological lying conman who wears orange Cheeto face makeup who’s ripped off Americans for millions

  2. When you’re wealthy or connected, you always get more due process than the rest of us…. Anyone else committing far less crimes would’ve been serving their sentences along time ago.

    1. Repent…believe in Jesus. John 3:16 – For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
      Luke 13 3 – I tell you nay: but except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
      John 3:3 “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

    2. @Hunter why so you can ignore them i will tell you your orange master has already had his university declared a scam by the courts his charity declared a scam by the courts he was named a coconspirator to campaign finance violations by the courts he was guilty in both of his impeachments and will be found guilty when he is indicted for stealing classified documents

  3. We have a 2 tier Justice system in the US. Us peasants are on the bottom and would’ve been locked up several years ago and the key thrown away.

    1. @BeachGirl again, you are so naive and brainwashed, the liberal media fooled you. It’s amazing how foolish people are. It’s the education standard. It’s dropped so low.

    2. @have a happy day I don’t listen to “liberal” media. I listen to facts. It’s unbelievable that a minority of Americans can be so easily brainwashed. For the betterment of your mind & a better education get away from your news source. Are you sure you’re not in a communist country? They only tell you what they want you to hear. As long as they can keep you believing the lies & propaganda they control you. They got you good.

    3. @KTG Network
      “You know how to tell someone has nothing of value to add to a conversation? They resort to personal attacks.”
      You’ve just described trump to a ‘T’. And you’re 100% correct, trump has nothing of value to add to a conversation, ever.
      Lock him up!

    4. @Dwayne Williams I cannot believe the lack of a real education these commenters possess. If they only understood economic policy and the role of the president. And if they truly had a sound education they would be so embarrassed that they voted for this current administration which is confirmed the most failed and worst administration in US history.

    5. @BeachGirl Again, you are not making any sense and you are using words that are so artificial. You really don’t understand economics and the role of the president. You need a proper education. And it is a 100% guarantee that you have been misled by the liberal media. The liberal media is everywhere. TV, Cable, news publications, magazines, teachers, professors, friends, family, Hollywood, social media. You have been exposed to all of these. Again you are so naive. You don’t realize you have been brainwashed. 100% guarantee you have been a recipient of liberal education and indoctrination. It’s not to be argued. It’s everywhere in your daily life.

  4. From what I hear he’s the specialist in these types of investigations, and in street talk he’s the guy with iron balls who won’t leave a scrap of meat or mostly fat on Trump’s bones.

    1. 6 years constant BS and you still dream a dead end. There is a mirror you stare into at the edge of the dark abyss

  5. I would like to see C-Span adapt this panel style model because CNN needs to be taught how to “Do This Son” 🤣 Happy weekend America🫣

  6. Violence against family members might be some of the reasons jG did this, just wondering ? Special Counsellor dealt with criminals & mafia

  7. I don’t see Garland “overriding” any recommendations to indict/not indict by Smith. Garland is looking for confirmation of a conclusion I believe he’s already arrived at.

    1. I hope you’re right. I believe they have enough evidence already, but Garland is doing the professional thing. It is the DOJ’s job to remain independent, so as to avoid the appearance of political prosecution. If it works out like I hope it will, this may give some legitimacy and “teeth” back to the Department of justice. We already know what Drumpf enablers and the right wing media will say. F them.

    2. I believe you’re close with the exception that Garland will arrive at the conclusion he’s told too by the puppeteers behind this push to destroy Western society.

      Whether that be George Soros, Mark Suckerburg, Clauss Schwab, or some type of committee I know not.

  8. Smith is going to get it done. If anyone explains Smith’s resume to Trump he may need to change his panties.
    Jack Smith’s work here in Den Haag (The Hague) has been nothing short of precise, no bullshit, no wasting time approach.
    He is legendary for his ‘no-prisoners’ work ethic! there will be no delays from now on.

    1. I sure as hell hope you’re right!!!! I’m so tired of waiting for the long overdue announcement that evil #45 is finally being indicted.

  9. I am wondering how it’s an impressive resume when even when he occasionally got a conviction it ended up being overturned. Maybe I’m just too demanding
