We should have a show called Garland and Friends but the catch is that nothing ever happens. Even If these prosecutors indict Trump, it was still up to Garland and his DOJ to do something and they didn't--not even to every Republican who has broken every law under the sun, like Ron Desantis, and allowing the other ones to all win reelection In Congress In the midterms. 
It's inching to 2024 now and nothing's happened. I don't trust Garland.  He's a 'moderate' in politics, and in this political climate that means a "kinda Republican" anymore. All I've learned from this is if you're specifically a Republican politician you can get away with anything.  
Again, I'd love to be wrong.
I'm just the slightest optimistic there will be a Indictment Week, but won't hold my breath. I think if just one breaks through, the rest will be a flood. But that first one has to break through! >

All reports say that the Georgia DA is already alerting defendants that she is indicting.  That doesn't necessarily include Trump himself but he was clearly the central target of her investigation, so I'm optimistic.  
This news of the Manhattan case is pleasant surprise.  I was under the impression this case had been dropped.  This one is so narrow in scope and has already convicted Trump's lawyer, so I'm optimistic that it could be relatively quick.  
I'm optimistic about the DOJ investigation but I don't expect top-level indictments for a year or more.  Despite Reddit contrarians' insistence, Garland/Smith and the DOJ appear to have been moving aggressively forward for 2 years and the investigation is going strong to this day.  But it's massive and sprawling and it's just not realistic to suggest they are reluctant to indict just because they haven't gotten there yet. >

Who are the other defendants in the GA case? Lindsey? >

I'd put good money on Giuliani, Eastman, Trump and possibly even Stone, though I wouldn't be surprised if there were a couple of extras beyond that like Chesebro or Clark as well. >

Stop! I can only get so hard! >

Why the fuck wasn't this cued up for 1/21/2021? Trump's lawyer went to jail for this and has made it abundantly clear he's willing to roll over on Individual 1. >

Probably like everyone else, they were expecting a federal case to be brought, since Trump is literally an unindicted co-conspirator in the case that put Cohen in jail, but for some reason, Merrick-"No one is above the law"-Garland refused to bring an open-and-shut case whose investigative legwork had already been completed. >

The whole structure of American justice standing around like a bunch of jackasses saying "Who? You? Me? You? Me?" while doing nothing is fucking infuriating. People can be prosecuted for both state and federal crimes. You don't have to wait. >

Who do they think they are, Uvalde cops? >

Underrated comment >

Looks like David Peckerhead is set to meet with prosecutors this week. >

He's in front of the Grand Jury today. Read the article. >

Paywall'd >

Thank you >

I hope he has to juggle trials in NY and GA while grifting in the campaign trail. >

And once the grand jury returns a decision the DA will file a request to write a report to investigate whether charges should be filed on a request for a possible civil complaint >

At this point I can’t tell if this is satire or truth 😭 >

It’s both. People acting in bad faith can abuse the legal process. That applies to Trump and the prosecutors whose job it is to enforce laws against Trump. >

The Criminal Formerly in the Oval Office should have been indicted multiple times by now. We'll believe it when we see it. >

i'm tired of all these headlines for the past 6 years saying basically "trump's about to get in trouble" >

Not sure if this is going to nail trump but I believe that the statute of limitations was coming up. Which is possibly why they decided to file now. Alvin Bragg was also successful in getting a conviction of the Trump Org on all counts. So hopefully he maintains his track record. >

Still waiting on the DOJ, GA and NY to actually do something besides investigate. >

You know the investigation part comes first, right?  The Georgia investigation concluded as of last week, so there should be a decision announced, one way or another, soon.  Supposedly the DA has alerted defendants of her intent to indict, but whether that includes Trump himself remains to be seen. >

You have to give it time. First they must investigate the circumstances surrounding events reported on by the press.  If the report is conclusive, then a request can be filed to open an investigation into the circumstances leading up to the potential criminal accusations.  Findings can be brought to a grand jury to settle the matter of whether a crime has been committed.  Finally, a formal criminal investigation can be launched, which could be delayed if Congress opens their own investigation, because the DoJ needs to avoid any hint of political influence.  Once that’s complete, an investigation may need to be conducted to establish the veracity of the evidence gathered by Congress.  If that report concludes in the affirmative, then a parallel investigation should be opened to cover all the steps and fill in any holes missed by Congress.  That evidence can be brought to a grand jury review, and if the report advises charges, then an investigation into the criminal case can commence. >

He will never be brought to justice. Someone else outside of the system has to take them out. >

Will someone please put the fucker in jail already? Rule of law!! >

If that grand jury has constituents from Staten Island, then agent orange will never get indicted.  
Fuck Staten Island.
