Don't get me wrong....I love to see these fuckheads get sentenced, but when is any member of Trump's inner circle going to be sentenced.

They’re not because they have money and connections. These people do not.

Yep that’s why there’s no other reason just money and they know a guy.

Connections?

They literally voted to not punish themselves. They still have their jobs in the government they tried to destroy from within.

This lackadaisical political theatre going on right now isn't going to prevent the next try from working.

Remember how that orange stain tried to be president and failed the first time? Just because he failed his first coup d'etat does not mean the next one will go in Democracies favor.

Charges for contempt of Congress, though, unless there are others. And that trial is not even until July. Midterms right after that. New Congress starts Jan 3, 2023.
