When are they going to bust Holder's ass?

I get the impression Mr. Barr means business and takes his job seriously.

Ok, no high publicity National Guard. How about low key Federal law enforcement assistance instead.

Are any for sale?

Seems all the low level, highly dispensable, who cares, are being arrested. The litany of names we all want to see charged are still walking free.

It's no different than good old Sheldon Silver actually being charged, tried, convicted, sentenced, appealed, convicted again, sentenced again, and still walking free.

AG Barr, show me some worthwhile arrests, convictions, sentences, and most importantly incarcerations and then I'll pay attention. Charging and arresting some secretary or maintenance worker don't mean squat to me.

Gotta say little in life would give more more pleasure than seeing Hillary and her cronies facing charges.

Gotta say little in life would give more more pleasure than seeing Hillary and her cronies found guilty and SERVE TIME!

FIFY.

 

[SmallGameAddict]

FIFY.

One can always hope. What a long drawn out trial that would/will be. Just the trial and the lawyers jockeying for position. Would make OJ's look like a speedy trial.

Who are the big time people you want charged in this operation designed to take guns out of the hands of gangbangers and street thugs?

Every single governor and mayor that enacted 'catch & release' with their BS bail reform.

Effective...sure.

Arrests do not influence the present situation at all unless all are placed in full remand, no bail.

This is a Marxist insurrection almost on a level with what Lenin did in Petrograd. These are not gangbangers, although the latter do present a problem.

Doing counter-terrorism in a gentlemenly manner is largely ineffective...unless it's the "hearts & minds" part - and that's worked so well in the past .

Well, you're right. As a general rule, law enforcement doesn't decide to set bail, guilt or innocence, or sentencing. A judge willing to make some examples would be helpful to their cause. Undoubtedly they've shopped around. Ima let Trump and Barr do the jobs they were hired for. I have the easy job. Sit watch wait and opine.

Agreed, but I have a sneaking suspicion our job description is in for a radical revamping in the near future....and we won't have much choice.

It'll be either submit or go kinetic - neither is a great choice.
