JabbaNoBadda Norman Ornstein We need to be clear - perspective is key:
SCOTUS is gone.
DOJ is gone.
Lots of judges, 5th circuit, are gone.
Much of media, NYT, are gone.
If it's a war, the invading forces have taken much of our territory. So, let's not hope that they will see the light.
We're in deep shit
1/6 was 40 months ago. We’ve known about Hse GOP pardons for 39 months. There was public reporting about the fake electors 41 months ago. How commentators like Norman Ornstein can possibly think Garland isn’t ALREADY a catastrophic failure is beyond me.

.Norman Ornstein: Why doesn’t Garland feel it is “sensitive” to investigate & indict prominent Dem. politicos like Brian Benjamin, Andrew Gillum (whom the jury didn’t convict; so much for DOJ only bringing “foolproof” cases), Bob Menendez, & Henry Cuellar?

Whoa. I somehow missed this tweet from Laurence Tribe 🇺🇦 ⚖️ yesterday. Those are some pretty harsh words coming from the institutionalist professor. More of this please.

.Norman Ornstein: I’m assuming Merrick Garland’s DOJ hasn’t investigated (& probably won’t investigate) any of these flagrant violations of federal law because it would be “sensitive?”

•Norman Ornstein when TX prosecutors dropped criminal charges against Ken Paxton: “Corruption of justice.”
•Norm 1 month later on Garland’s failure to even INVESTIGATE Clarence Thomas: “I understand the sensitivity of going after a Supreme Court justice.”

'It would be far more worrying if the young were indifferent to the deaths of thousands of children' read Edward Luce
This is quite the take from Bradley P. Moss given that 1000s of 1/6 rioters DID occupy a facility by force, assault police, smash & destroy property, refuse to vacate, & -- totally get away w/ it. By that metric, the rule of law ALREADY ended >39 months ago.

.Norman Ornstein: Ken Paxton is in da hizzy! Actually, in da courtroom. Don’t get excited though — not in the way you’re hoping.
