The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Of course!

I knew my relief at seeing Bondi unceremoniously dumped would be brief, because, of course, Trump would find someone even worse to carry out his brazen weaponization of the DOJ. And he has found his perfect stooge in Todd Blanche, the absolute worst of the worst.

How he got a grand jury to hand down and indictment on the "86 47" bullshit is beyond me.

Listen to this brazen and blatant lie from Blanche:

While this case is unique, and this indictment stands out because of the name of the defendant, his alleged conduct is the same kind of conduct that we will never tolerate and that we will always investigate and regularly prosecute.

Are you kidding me? Trump's personal lawyer and now the person running DOJ is clearly on board with using the DOJ to persecute Trump's perceived enemies.

And if Blanche's DOJ will 'never tolerate' that kind of conduct, when are they going to to after Trump who repeatedly threatens his perceived enemies with accusations of treason, saying they should be hanged, etc. Yeh, let's go after that conduct.

And how about having a DOJ that will go after all the corruption and graft going on in this sewer of an administration.

And guess who else's is being persecuted by this corrupt DOJ?

And Jim Comey is not the only member of his own family to be the target of an alleged retribution campaign. Last year, for no clear reason, the Justice Department fired Comey's daughter Maureen. From her job as a federal prosecutor in New York, a judge just allowed her wrongful termination case to move ahead in federal court.

We live in bizarro world.
