7. You're kidding right ?

[agingdem]

9. No..

Garland is going after Trump..he's building his case from the bottom up ....he's meticulous and this "leak" was on purpose..he's taken a lot of crap from everyone ..he's letting us know the DOJ is not doin' nothin'... the J6 committee expressed their frustration with the DOJ and I get it, but when do we get to know what the J6 committee knows?...we've been teased and tantalized but still no public hearings...

10. No. Not yet, I'll wait till I see indictments or arrest. nt

12. Not yet, don't know who's he going after. This is a start though

15. No. Subpoenas aren't arrests or indictments.

I will change my view on Garland when Trump and his inner circle are dragged away in handcuffs by the FBI.

4. No names given

“In the past two months, a federal grand jury in Washington has issued subpoena requests to some officials in former president Donald Trump’s orbit who assisted in planning, funding and executing the Jan. 6 rally, said the people familiar with the matter, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation.”

5. And Trump must be aware.

Which explains all his bimbo explosions the last few days.

14. Here you go:

The criminal investigation into the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol has expanded to examine the preparations for the rally that preceded the riot, as the Justice Department aims to determine the full extent of any conspiracy to stop Congress from certifying Joe Biden’s election victory, according to people familiar with the matter.

In the past two months, a federal grand jury in Washington has issued subpoena requests to some officials in former president Donald Trump’s orbit who assisted in planning, funding and executing the Jan. 6 rally, said the people familiar with the matter, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation.

The development shows the degree to which the Justice Department investigation — which already involves more defendants than any other criminal prosecution in the nation’s history — has moved further beyond the storming of the Capitol to examine events preceding the attack.

The events of Jan. 6, 2021, are a legally fraught puzzle for federal investigators. Prosecutors and FBI agents must distinguish between constitutionally protected First Amendment activity, such as speech and assembly, and the alleged conspiracy to obstruct Congress or other potential crimes connected to fundraising and organizing leading up to Jan. 6.
