  The January 6 report is out. The question now is whether Trump will be prosecuted for his role in what has already produced guilty verdicts for the foot soldiers in the insurrection. >
  
  Those foot soldiers don't have high priced lawyers with no scruples like Trump does. >
  
  Trump doesn't have those either. The lawyers working for him keep getting indicted for crimes of their own. >
  
  Or quitting after he doesn't pay them. >
  
  The only ones left that will still work with him are slimy turds >
  
  It won’t be Merrick Garland because he has hired Jack Smith. If Smith decides that Trump should be prosecuted then Garland should allow him to be prosecuted. It has nothing to do with Garland anymore. >
  
  Garland can still overrule Jack Smith, but if he does he can be called to Congress to explain why. >
  
  He won't overrule. He hired Jack Smith because he wanted someone to give these cases his full, undivided attention. Garland is running a huge department and has many other chores. >
  
  He also wanted the investigation removed from politics.  He wants a clean investigation, and to keep himself at arm's length to avoid accusations of political motive.
  While the AG is supposed to be independent, he is appointed by, and serves at the pleasure of the President. He is a politicized figure. >
  
  Only when a Democrat is in office. Otherwise, the DOJ gets run by republican bag men with no scruples while everyone shrugs. >
  
  The DOJ absolutely will indict Trump before Spring >
  
  The rumours are that Smith will act fast on the Mar a Lago case and will recommend indictment sometime in January.
  The Jan 6th report that will take many months to write, they have tonnes of documentation and interviews to go through and many people are implicated in criminal behaviour. I know he has a head start but the average special council investigation takes 2 years to complete. >
  
  Wasn't the Jan 6th report just released? >
  
  The special counsels Jan 6th report indicating whether Garland should indict or not. >
  
  I'll believe the American justice system is still functioning if and when merrick garland does something >
  
  One of our two justice systems is working. Specifically the one for the poors >
  
  We found out in 2017 through 2020 that the supposedly "Non Political" DOJ was overwhelmingly MAGA, and the only thing that has changed since then is a few portraits in their Lobby, so prepare for the worst. >
  
  It was MAGA under trump of course w Bill Barr but I’m pretty sure that’s been taken care of in that department. Fingers crossed! >
  
  That's the job of the Special Council. Garland doing anything would only be painted as a political witch hunt by his supporters. The more unambiguously unbiased his prosecution is the better. >
  
  Now that Trump doesn’t have the ability to win, you’re going to see the GOP suddenly try to compromise with the Democrats & DOJ on what to do with him. Hell it’s already happening, look at how Moscow Mitch has told Trump to back off. They don’t want a trial (that would air the GOP’s dirty laundry) but they do want Trump barred from office. You’ll see the talking heads start making this out to be a “unifying” moment. >
  
  Why so afraid to jail this man  anyone else would be jailed in one day >
  
  IMO the best we can hope for is an ankle monitor while he lives out his pitiful life on his golf course. >
  
  At least have the ankle monitor restrict him to just the first hole on the course. >
  
  Forbid him to use a golf cart????? >
  
  He’d be dead of a heart attack by the 5th hole >
  
  There are hundreds of people that should be charged from Tucker Carlson so slates of fake electors that took part in a massive conspiracy to overthrow the US government. >
  
  How do they not? The J6 did all the investigative work for them. >
  
  If the DOJ does nothing with the mountain of evidence against Trump and his allies, then democracy in the US will be dead and the rule of law will no longer have meaning. >
  
  The Jan 6th committee release a comprehensive report after months of interviews and investigation, laying out the case for prosecution. But @MAGADeplorable76 on Twitter says that Trump is the rightful president and the Earth is flat. So I don’t know what to believe. Nothing is knowable. Am I real? Is Reddit real? No one knows for certain. >
  
  I have a shiny golden dollar that says TFG dies without spending a single night in prison. >
  
  I've come to terms with that, and now I can appreciate the years of legal hell he has gone through, is going through, and years of hell that have not yet come to pass...  
  He may be walking free, but he wakes up every single day imprisoned in the ever-shrinking life of Donald J. Fucking Trump, and I don't mind that for now. >
  
  
  the years of legal hell he has gone through
  
  How much has that affected his daily life at all, really? >
  
  I think quite a bit. As people around him go to jail, far less are willing to attach themselves to him. And those that do are of lower caliber.  On top of that, it is becoming favorable for right wing media outlets to criticize him. The mid terms were a game changer. >
  
  I bet that has really hurt his golf game. >
  
  Image the DOJ arrests Trump on Jan 6th 2023. >
  
  And perp walk him and not do the surrender when you want to stuff.  Literally any other person on the planet and they’d already be in hard prison, awaiting trial. >
  
  If a headline asks a question, the answer is ‘No’ >
  
  Lol are you new here? Not a damn thing of consequence will happen to this republican crime syndicate. Sure some low level rubes will take a fall but "Country Unity" or some bullshit will explain it away for the elites and half the country will be smug and the other half will see their democracy stripped away before their very eyes cause the points are made up and nothing fucking matters. I would love to be proven wrong but....gestures around wildly. >
  
  This is my thought as well. I saw the report, read the summary and was like, “…k”. Nothing in there is particularly shocking for anyone who’s been paying any attention, and there have yet to be any consequences and everyone involved is still running their mouths about how if they’d been in charge Jan 6 would’ve been way cooler. >
  
  My hope is that they have been waiting for this report so they can say that they aren't just on a political witch hunt (even though you know Trump and his cronies will say exactly that). But now they have evidence which was collected by a bipartisan committee (and yes the Rs will say it's partisan, but they had the chance to participate and didn't; that's their fault). >
  
  I mean if they don't. He is fair game for the rest of us then. >
  
  Garland or Trump? >
  
  How about we get the ball rolling BEFORE this coward flees to Russia >
  
  I would be happy with him fleeing to Russia, as long as the media shuts the fuck up about him. I’m so sick of hearing his verbal diarrhea. >
  
  He operates with impunity we will see if anything changes. >
  
  It’s really sad, disappointing, (idk what to call this feeling) that I would be more surprised if something did happen than not. >
  
  Stay tuned folks, will the DOJ stand up and prosecute as it should, or take "the ostrich approach"? >
  
  Let Us Now Prosecute Famous Men >
  
  Garland and doj need to stick that baton right up trumps ass >
  
  Sadly, no, they won’t. >
  
  What, in the recent history of this country, names anyone believe anything at all is going to happen.  Most of us know exactly what SHOULD happen.  But this shit bag of rotting human flesh was impeached TWICE and our fucking government wouldn’t remove him from office.
  Trump might get finned, slap on the wrist.  But do I think he will be arrested?  Nope >
  
  I still don’t believe Trump will face an real consequences other than POSSIBLY being barred from running for office.  He may well be indicted but it would be an excruciatingly long process.  If he were convicted, any Republican winning in 2024 would immediately pardon him.
  I hope I’m wrong but this guy has skated through life for 75 years without ever facing any real consequences for his actions. >
  
  Lock him up >
  
  So, when does the perp walk actually happen? Just after the indictment? >
  
  Some time between pigs flying and a cold day in hell >
  
  Awwww, turn that frown upside down! It wasn’t too long ago that we were thinking we would never find out what truly happened in Jan 6th. The glass is half full… The glass is half full… The glass is half full.. The glass… >
  
  Even if he does, nothing will be concluded (to the inevitable SCOTUS appeal) before 2028. >
  
  Would it ultimately end up with the Supreme Court and then they’d probably let him off because they’re republicans? Genuine question, I don’t know how the law works in US. >
  
  The answer to the question is probably a no unfortunately >
  
  Well. I don’t think anyone can say there was a rush to judgment here. >
  
  Lets put the 'nobody' into "Nobody is above the law" >
  
  No, no they won’t. >
  
  I have more hope in Georgia than I do the Federal government. A Republican President can pardon him. He can't be pardoned in Georgia. >
  
  I am delighted with the whole Jan 6th committee. They have been a constant reminder for the right that Trump is untrustworthy, a constant voice to say 'no you cannot just forget this shit, no you cannot pretend it did not happen'. 
  Plus they have brought out the rumours, the vague impressions into the light and painted a vivid picture of his actions on that day. They have left not a scintilla of doubt about his criminality, so much so that Garland will 100% have to act on Smith's future recommendation to indict because we all know now, not just that that there is some evidence there, but there is a super abundance of evidence to prove his guilt in a court of law. No veils of 'uncertainty' or 'concern' can hide the truth and subsequently he will have to indict. >
  
  Nothing will come from this, I think that the special prosecutor will probably get this task and deem it too time and resource consuming and focus on the Classified documents thing and his various financial stuff. Those things are a bit more easy to actually prove since no one can actually subjectively dispute the facts, he had classified documents in his office and numbers don't lie.
  As much as he should be jailed for his part in Jan. 6 it's exactly the type of case he can delay and use to his advantage for years. >
  
  Lock him up!! >
  
  Merrick Garland will do fuck all.  He is exactly what people think he is. >
  
  No , Garland is dragging his feet. He doesn’t want to appear partisan. >
  
  If the most massive investigation in DOJ history is "dragging his feet," then I'd hate to be Garland's target when he's got a spring in his step. >
  
  No because garland is a fucking coward >
  
  Nothing will happen to Trump….there are two sets of laws in this country…one for the wealthy/connected and one for the rest of us. Lady justice is not blind. >
  
  No . I don't think they will >
  
  Nothing will happen to him.  This is all political theater.  Too bad because he deserves to be held accountable and prosecuted.  However, our current politicians are not up to the task. >
  
  Appeals for years, then house arrest for a year with “privileges” >
  
  Not holding my breath on that one >
  
  No, Garland won't do anything. We've been watching this for years now. SBF arrested in weeks for a much less obvious crime. TFG walking free. >
  
  This is a bullshit question. The DoJ does not take instruction from Congress, they will only indict if they believe they can win at trial and appeal. The DoJ has greater investigative powers than a congressional committee.  Nobody is going to ignore or slow walk a grand jury subpoena, (see patsy baloney). Fuck you and happy Christmas, make the effort to post less bullshit in 2023. >
  
  Thank you.  Bunch of liars and morons here. >
  
  No they won't, because he declared his intention to run in 2024. And that's the sole reason he did this early. >
  
  The attorney general doesn’t have the balls or ambition to prosecute Trump. It will get swept under the carpet just like every other corrupt action Trump committed when he was president. Only the peasantry will pay any price. >
  
  Hope so >
  
  Prolly not ..... >
  
  Fuck no he won’t. Garland should have arrested trump by now, but it’s not gonna happen. The piece of shit will get away Scott free because by the time the republicans take over the house, they’re gonna do everything in their power to stop the January 6 committee and the justice department from arresting and prosecuting trump. >
  
  I personally would want to wait until the Republican Presidential primaries. Let those 2 contenders slash each other’s jugular first. >
  
  100 dollars that nothing is gonna happen. The "evidence" I have seen so far wouldn't hold up In court for a conviction >
  
  Its been over 24 hrs. They’re not gonna do anything. >
  
  I feel like this one of those poorly written tv shows that should’ve ended 4 seasons ago. >
  
  Damning report that leaves out who was in charge of Capitol Security. Oh well. Not like we expected anything legitimate from these jackals, anyway. >
  
  America wants to heal and move on.
  And, that moving on STARTS with Trump and ALL of his accomplices being prosecuted to the full extent of our laws. >
  
  Nope. This is a war of the elites. He is well protected. >
  
  Jack shit is going to happen. Absolutely jack >
  
  Hurry up and fucking do it already. Stop talking about it >
  
  Still waiting for it...... >
  
  This “ committee” literally wasted both time/ money/ resources for the past 18 months. They had this conclusion already set since day one. 🙄🙄 >
  
  Only because it was all apparent from every video and speaking avenue he did; sorting it all out and being able to prove the facts are what they worked through. >
  
  now if/when he's indicted how would you find 12 citizens that have not formed an opinion on the issue and will be able to seperare personal or political beliefs and render a verdict? >
  
  According to that logic all you have to do to escape justice is get your face on tv. Which is almost true already, just not yet. >
  
  I guess you could tell if a person is innocent or guilty of a crime just by seeing their face on tv. Seems like you agree with trump that we should throw out the constitution to get the results you want. >
  
  Biden should be under no illusion we will not tolerate charges not being filed. He should replace Garland now if he’s not up to the task.  He hasn’t been until recently. Not his fault. He was the wrong person for the job. Just as Biden is the wrong person for the job. >
  
  Nope >
  
  Nothing will come of this other than our politicians waited time… >
  
  Let’s do it, then let’s also go after the corrupt politicians from BOTH sides. >
  
  The whole system is full of feckless turds. I have no faith anything will come out of this entire mess. >
  
  No, he won't. >
  
  Nobody will do anything. Trump is untouchable >
  
  Will Merrick Garland and the Department of Justice take the baton?
  No
