    Once this is over, and it will be over one day, what is going to happen with all these enablers that supported and protected trump, allowed him to continue his daily crimes and spread of hatred and violence, and just generally fucking up the world…?

    Are we going to allow a “person” like this to just walk freely after being co-responsible for all the death and destruction that they caused?

    Everything bad for Trump happens at a fucking glacier’s pace, but whenever Trump wants to ruin immigrants or poor people’s lives it happens immediately.

    Why would she? There’s been no enforcement mechanism at all, from congress or from the electorate. To her, the consequences of being a minute late, a day late, or a year late are all the same: Bupkis. She released enough that the base will lie and say she released them.

    If there’s no punishment, Congress is de facto saying that they do not consider it a crime - nor, implicitly, do they consider the events that the to-be-delivered documents detail to be crimes either.

    Oh good, I was worried the other outrage on the need would be distracting from this even further.

    Weren’t they supposed to be held in contempt for obstructing justice if they missed the deadline?

        China marker was the old method. I’ve not seen a reliable electronic method, but have heard of such a software being used in Washington.

    Still waiting on Ro Khanna to “draft” those charges against her.

    At this point I think he just likes to hear the sound of his own voice.
