I heard he got all kinds of access to all kinds of stuff through his DOGE government work.
That was smart...
I’m guessing Garland wanting to “move past” perceived political vendettas was the primary motive here, not because he was trying to protect donors. It took him over one year to look into Jan 6. And that was only after Cheney and the Jan 6 commission made it so obvious that Garland needed to investigate it that the DOJ would’ve been burned down had he ignored it any longer. Garland was overly cautious. Had garland done his job and delivered swift justice instead of tip toeing around everything, we would be in a far better place right now.
I'm going to go a bit further and say that there should have been a pile of bodies on the doorstep of the capitol on Jan. 6th like there would have been if the people doing what they did would have been black.
He absolutely should’ve faced severe justice, rendering him ineligible for public office and behind bars. Garland was woefully insufficient for the moment and we’re all paying for it. Which is why I’m pretty sure the Epstein list was put on ice. He was too cautious and didn’t want to split the country further with what would likely be perceived as weaponizing the DOJ. Which, ironically is what the GOP accused him of doing anyway and what they’re actively doing today. Democrats consistently being butter knives to gun fights. At some point they need to fight back and fight back hard. And the damn public needs to support them for longer than 5 seconds or else our democracy is doomed (it might actually have already passed that point).
