    No shit. She needs to be investigated when Harris wins.

      Nothing will happen unless there’s a majority in both the house and the senate. She has to be impeached. I don’t believe the executive branch can fire her.

        They can and should criminally charge her if they had any fucking balls at all.

          Really? Can you find me a reference? I thought the executive branch’s check on the judicial branch was appointment

            Her preventing, hindering, or delaying the lawful prosecution of someone who stole state secrets definitely fits the federal criminal code for seditious conspiracy.

          Democrats should lock up all the Republicans to show how dangerous Trump suggesting he’d lock up his political opponents is to democracy.

              This account (timewarp@lemmy.world) is constantly putting out bad faith arguments that are anti-Dem / pro-GOP. Sometimes they’re obvious, other times it’s more insidious.

              Just tag the user as a person who is trying to be subversive and dishonest and it’ll be easier to spot their bullshit.

    She has proven herself to be craven and corrupt enough, willing to serve Trump instead of the USA. I imagine she’s a leading candidate.

    It’s actually surprising me that she would receive a favor after he no longer needs her. I guess Federalist Society recognizes a shamelessly corrupt collaborator when they see one.

      You have it backwards. She doesn’t get a favor. Everything is about Trump and who he thinks will do him favor after favor. The judge already did him a huge favor and Trump would expect constant favors if the judge is appointed AG.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
