1. The fact that they haven't

Is what helps drive the GOP narrative that the docs were "classified", but not really classified or were somehow not actually sensitive anymore. If he had lists of "assets" or nuclear data on foreign countries, could they justify not taking him into custody?

[kentuck]

2. First step:

Subpoena him and get the information that is needed to protect our country.

[Justice matters.]

9. Bingo.

It's about protecting the National Security of the United States first and foremost.

Wake the F up, Mr. Garland. This is not a childish political game GDI!

[secondwind]

17. Garland will have something to say when the time comes.

[GuppyGal]

3. Are they afraid because something like this has never happened before? We need to know what is

going on AND NOW

[MyOwnPeace]

5. OF COURSE it's never happened before......

We've never had a thief/crook/liar/spy/con-man (I know - the list can go on-and-on) elected as President before!

LOCK HIM UP!
LOCK HIM UP!
LOCK HIM UP!
LOCK HIM UP!
LOCK HIM UP!
LOCK HIM UP!
LOCK HIM UP!
LOCK HIM UP!
LOCK HIM UP!
LOCK HIM UP!
LOCK HIM UP!
LOCK HIM UP!

23. It's happened before but Ford pardoned Nixon

4. I also don't see why the intelligence committees

in the House and Senate don't subpoena Trump? Hey, I don't do Kornacki but I can follow football and wrestling season is coming.

6. Arrest and interrogate him at Gitmo! nt

[getagrip_already]

7. 2 words I'd love to occur, but not really: extraordinary rendition......

I love the thought of him being naked in front of female investigators laughing at him, being waterboarded and humiliated until he dumps what pretends to be his mind.

But we can't do that. Even though at the moment he qualifies as the countries biggest enemy individual, because we should be better than that.

But letting him fly around the country whipping up hate? There has to be a middle ground.

[niyad]

20. I have been thinking Abu Ghraib for months.

[Evolve Dammit]

8. Home Run Glenn Kirschner. 45 is playing with our lives and getting off on it. And DOJ is MIA. MIA.

[Beastly Boy]

10. Sorry, but somewhere along the way Kirschner stopped being a legal expert or even a media pundit,

and became a full-time entertainer.

Arrest Trump? Mirandize him? Subpoena him? Because Kirschner speculates that Trump has all the information to incriminate himself in his head?

And then what? What if Trump doesn't feel like incriminating himself? Watch Democrats lose both the House and the Senate in November for nothing? Ok, I shouldn't say for nothing: the odds are high that this course of action will undermine any claims of non-partisanship on the part of DOJ, and will discredit Garland personally.

[Alice Kramden]

19. I hear what you're saying

And I have to agree

[spanone]

11. K&R

[ancianita]

12. THIS. This was a KILLER segment. Best I've seen in a while.

[DeeDeeNY]

13. Man woman person camera TV

That is probably the only information retained in that brain.

[James48]

14. Trump was always a proponent of waterboarding.

I think he should give us a demonstration.

[gab13by13]

16. IMO indicting or arresting Trump

won't just fire up Trump's base, it will fire up our base.

Recent history; Trump was impeached and he got a record turnout of voters, but President Biden got a larger record turnout of voters.

I do not agree with people who say that we will lose Congress if we go after Trump, I believe the opposite.

[notinkansas]

22. Agreed.

Democrats risk a disillusioned electorate if 45 is not held accountable for his crimes.

[Ponietz]

18. The President promised action last Thursday

Best be imminent.

[The Wizard]

21. Send him to Uzbekistan for extraordinary rendition.

[suncat]

24. I was hoping to get a rest when Trump left office!

But this situation has me worried worse than anything before.

As I think about this, it seems probable it is already known what is missing and who helped Trump. There must have been a "check-out" and "check-in" procedure identifying who else was in on this caper, and what documents have not been returned. There should be digital backups of everything, so the details in the documents are still in gov. hands.

I think that intelligence departments/officers are likely already taking proactive steps to mitigate the damages, regardless of who Trump shared the info with. But it is very troubling to speculate what Trump could have done with that info.

[Catherine Vincent]

26. I agree with Mr. Kirschner

Arrest Donald Trump. Now!
