The Garland Thread 1/
Some fear the Department of Justice (DOJ) is not going to prosecute Trumpomobsters, in particular January 6th seditionists. Some think Attorney General Merrick Garland is protecting Trump and his criminal gang
That is madness
Let's do this once & for all
The Garland Thread 2/
The US Department of Justice has 113,000 employees of which more than 10,000 are attorneys. It is BY FAR the largest law firm on the planet. Five times larger than largest private law firm of America
They are all PROSECUTORS
They ENFORCE THE THE LAW
The Garland Thread 3/
These are not DEFENSE attorneys who try to get criminals off on technicalities
These are not CONTRACT lawyers who try to find wiggle room in a contract to screw a partner
These are career professionals who want to ENFORCE THE LAW
To prosecute CRIMINALS
The Garland Thread 4/
Some people on TV chat shows, and some here on Twitter, are suggesting that because Trumpomobsters are
Republican
or rich
or white
or men
or powerful
that they can escape justice. I hear you. You have SEEN injustice on TV, often racially biased
But note..
The Garland Thread 5/
Do you remember this dude? A chap named Trump. Was a Republican President just a coupla years ago
He selected as his Attorney General an ultra-conservative, senior Republican Senator by the name of Jeff Sessions. He ran the DOJ from Feb 2017 to Nov 2018
