NGL kind of wish some of these congresspeople would stfu so the criminals have less time to prepare before January.
The ones that are smart enough already started preparing as soon as the map started to go blue.
The others are too incompetent to actually hide their crimes.
Criminals are going to do what criminals do. The election results were a warning, they'll prepare for things even if everyone was quiet about it. I say keep talking, pump up their anxiety. Get Trump pissed off more, he tends to fire people then.
I remind you that the case against Trump after his first term ended relied heavily upon classified documents secretly stored in Maralago, some of which were flushed down toilets.
The secret service communication devices and servers all got "accidentally" wiped once congress subpeona'd them.
If we give crooks time to prepare then they will successfully destroy evidence.
I agree with that point. I'm not sure legally what can be done about that with the standing Congress, as the majority aren't going to do anything. Plus, who is in charge of implementing law enforcement? The Executive Branch.

I find it hilarious that you think Republicans do or don’t do things based on how much we talk about them doing it lmao. Very gullible thinking.
Agree. Actions not words!
Because it's Kabuki theatre. Nothing more.
Nah
Yeah. bullshit.
Democrats should be looking at making real change:
Reducing Presidential powers substantially. No more pardons and vetos and executive orders.
Sweeping reform with new harsh anti-corruption laws.
Term limits for the house. two terms and done.
Criminalize stock trading among congress.
Fix the rot going forward...no? then they are just looking for their turn at the trough.
Agreed, although I think before angthing they need to prosecute every single person from John Roberts to every single person Trump has pardoned. Put them all in ICE holding cells like the terrorist illegal aliens they are.
Unfortunately it would take decades of non-uniparty rule to fix this so everyone under 30 can kiss their futures goodbye lol.
