The Politics Thread

Surprise, surprise. And, as I said, you just know the other Trump scum will ignore the subpoenas and Dems will STILL want to color in the lines. Get the damned Sergeant at Arms to haul these wastes of skin IN. Fight, for God's sake.

Seriously. Tomorrow's the deadline. I just don’t want T**** and his ilk to get away unscathed AGAIN.

The head of the Commission had already stated there will be criminal referrals to the DOJ.  This is not the Barr justice dept. These people will be arrested by US Marshall’s

I sure hope so. I don't know if I trust Merrick Garland, even though he is a Biden appointee.

Emerson is not a reliable poll.

It's bad for Democrats, but if you follow the media you are going to just make yourself sick. They hate us. They would laugh if we all died. They have an agenda and they are not hiding it. I would just say prepare yourself for the hard times to come and ignore the press and the pollsters.

The image of Joe Manchin on the edge of his ugly yacht, shaming Americans as being "entitled" so therefore refusing to do anything but the bare minimum in a stimulus, will always stay with me. I truly hate what this country has become and how much further we keep falling.

Hasn't this country always been kind of terrible though? Genocide, slavery, exploitation... it's just that the veneer of gentility, fairness and upward mobility has been scraped away.

Same here. What a selfish, petty little man. He seems to revel in being almost universally hated and in being part of the problem.

People need to manage their expectations around Jan. 6. It will take years for some of these people to be held accountable. The organizers of the Charlottesville riot still haven't gone on trial. That was four years ago. Anyone thinking this is going to be speedy are only setting themselves up for heartbreak.

[amybrickwallace]

I know you're right, but it's hard not to feel discouraged.
