  They don't hate America - they hate that there are Americans who aren't like them.
context: Was this the White House or Tony Soprano's house? Burning documents, flushing documents... Drain the swamp my ass. >
  
  Oh, they thought they were Tony Soprano. I wish the world would cut to black for a moment and they would all just disappear. >
  
  Don't stop believin'. >
  
  Conservatives support this type of treason. Never forget. >
  
  Overwhelming majority of elected Republicans are still working to cover up all the treason. >
  
  Why do republicans hate America? >
  
  They hate everything except POWER >
  
  
  Then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows burned papers in his office after meeting with a House Republican who was working to challenge the 2020 election, according to testimony the Jan. 6 select committee has heard from one of his former aides.
  Cassidy Hutchinson, who worked under Meadows when he was former President Donald Trump’s chief of staff, told the panel investigating the Capitol attack that she saw Meadows incinerate documents after a meeting in his office with Rep. Scott Perry (R-Pa.). A person familiar with the testimony described it on condition of anonymity.
  
  The only person who wished they were Kevin McCarthy is Mark Meadows. >
  
  Always seemed like the same dude. >
  
  Nothing says innocent like destroying evidence. >
  
  That huge sigh of relief you hear is coming from Fawn Hall lol. >
  
  Per CNN just now, he burned papers at least a dozen times. >
  
  Which is illegal on its face. But, DOJ do it's job? Fat fucking chance.. >
  
  I have a feeling he's working with the DOJ, everything ran through him >
  
  Although wasn't he the one who called Cassidy Hutchinson before her testimony and said "we know you'll do the right thing" witness intimidation thing? >
  
  That is straight-up dialog out of a Mafia film. >
  
  Oh that's totally normal. Why at my office we have a daily burning rite where we toss all evidence of our criminality in the bin and make s'mores. Nothing wrong with this at all, not a single thing! >
  
  "These are delicious! I can't wait to commit s'more crimes, tomorrow!" >
  
  Jesus. This is all illegal, what are we waiting for here?? >
  
  Well you had the joke answers so here's the real deal.
  The DOJ just got the complete set of transcripts.
  Now they have to cross-check everything the witnesses said to the committee with everything they said to the DOJ.
  They do this to check for lies and memory lapses. The liars then get indicted and hopefully flipped. The folks with bad memories get a chance to amend their statements.
  Each statement then has to be cross-checked against every other statement the DOJ has received. Again they check for lies and mistakes. And again they indict liars and fix errors.
  They do this because they aren't like Bill Durham. He took his Trump Russia investigation to court and lost his case because he didn't resolve inconsistencies before the trial.
  Assuming that you want the DOJ to win, you need to wait a while before expecting action. >
  
  Thanks for the detailed answer.  I do understand it takes time.  Married to a lawyer here.  But even my lawyer spouse is pretty convinced nothing is going to happen.  They have had portions of the testimony for months.  I want to be wrong.  But it has been 2 years now.  That's a long time.  It should be a huge priority, disturbing it is not. >
  
  An attorney acquaintance put it best - 'Federal attention is like a drunk hippo; it may take a long time to meander towards you, but once it's close up, it's attention is unmistakeable for anything else.' >
  
  The thing is we all know that all this horribly corrupt stuff took place. The question is, how do we make the other side of the table understand that this stuff actually happened? >
  
  They don't care. They're beyond caring about legality, morality, rationality or anything decent if it means they don't win by owning the Democrats. >
  
  This is why I honestly feel this country is screwed at times. You would think that regardless of political affiliation that we could all agree to not burning government documents. Furthermore, we should easily all be able to agree that it is a bad thing. But even with something as very obvious as this being a bad thing, you will find a large number of people being okay with it.
  Idea of people burning documents. The cases of trying it down the toilet. Like this sort of stuff should not be occurring and should have stopped. >
  
  Pretty wild how all that it takes to be held completely unaccountable for domestic and global crimes against humanity is to burn, flush or swallow paper. >
  
  Is that a clear indication they were discussing something criminal, or what? >
  
  Really outrageous behavior with consciousness of guilt. You only burn papers in the White House for one reason. >
  
  Oh come on, people who hate America and want to undermine our country do stuff like this all the time.
