Friday Talking Points -- The Wait Better Be Worth It This Time

[Colgate 64]

4. I've long since learned not to get my hopes

up regarding government doing "the right thing" when it comes to exposing Rethuglican chicanery and wrongdoing. First it was "Fitzmas". Then came the famous Mueller sell-out. Now we're pinning our hopes on a judge who Obama wrongly nominated for the Supreme Court because 1) he was proposed by a Republican and 2) I believe Obama believed that this fact would make him a palatable candidate to Repub Senators. He got the Consolation Prize by being made A.G. by Biden, another mistake. He's not a Prosecutor, doesn't have the Prosecutor mentality and obviously don't want to shake the power structure up. Getting our hopes up for anything beyond nickel and dime prosecutions of a bunch of mouth-breathers who pissed in the Capitol is just going to lead to another severe disappointment for those of us who firmly believe tfg should be held to account.
