Stuff she pointed out in Berman's book (comes out tomorrow) is going to get a lot of people
in our justice system in trouble up to and including Bill Barr. Get the MAGAts out of the DOJ!

And this cleanup is long past due, and I'm counting on an additional cleanup in Congress in November!

Every minute Donald Trump was breathing he was breaking the f****** law
And we constantly have to hear Putin dinsko, "can we arrest Donald Trump for doing this"

Or "sure this is unethical but is it a crime"?

Meanwhile thousands upon thousands upon thousands of blood the one thousands of black Brown and poor Americans or Americans get thrown into prison everyday on the flimsiest of evidence.

And this man can't even pee without breaking the f****** law and people have to scratch their g****** head and wonder "G should he go to jail for this?"


There is no democracy in the United States until Donald Trump and all of his f****** enablers are thrown in the prison
