Jack Smith and Merrick Garland have poisoned the DOJ
Flopping Aces ^ | 08-31-24 | DrJohn

Three days ago, Jack Smith filed a superseding indictment against Donald Trump. That's highly significant for a reason. It demolishes the veneer of impartiality and destroys something else.

Three years ago, I wrote an article about how US Attorney David Weiss tipped the election in favor of Joe Biden by burying the Hunter Biden tax and laptop scandals.

Weiss was praised for his restraint in not indicting the younger Biden.

Last summer, federal officials in Delaware investigating Hunter Biden faced a dilemma. The probe had reached a point where prosecutors could have sought search warrants and issued a flurry of grand jury subpoenas. Some officials involved in the case wanted to do just that. Others urged caution. They advised Delaware’s U.S. Attorney, David Weiss, to avoid taking any actions that could alert the public to the existence of the case in the middle of a presidential election.

“To his credit, he listened,” said a person involved in the discussions, reported here for the first time. Weiss decided to wait, averting the possibility that the investigation would become a months-long campaign issue.

By last summer, the probe had reached a point at which investigators could have issued grand jury subpoenas and sought search warrants that might have revealed its existence at a time when many of then-President Donald Trump’s supporters were seeking to draw attention to Hunter Biden’s actions.

Weiss, however, decided to delay taking any actions that were likely to make the existence of the Hunter Biden probe public. Concerns about affecting the presidential election loomed large when Weiss entertained arguments about advancing the probe, according to the person involved in the discussions. No matter what he did, the decision was sure to come under scrutiny for signs of politicization.

Obviously, Weiss was protecting his local friend Joe Biden. The argument was that Weiss's inaction was in accord with a long-standing DOJ policy:

The powers that be USED these two tools to poison the DOJ.

Our warfare is not with men, but with rulers of darkness.

Out enemy is Satan.

We can't kill Satan and obviously can't persuade men to stop following and obeying him . . . . so . . . . we'll have to kill men to keep ourselves from pollution.

Smart men will understand as we continue to lead to Christ, but if they persist, so shall we.

Obama and his “wingman” already poisoned it before those two schlubs arrived.

This is false. Obama’s anti American AG Loretta Lynch consolidated extremism in the DoJ after Jeffrey Holder laid the groundwork. It was under her where the FIB initiated the Russia hoax spy operation on the Trump campaign. Trump had no idea the depth of the corruption in the DoJ. But Obama absolutely started this.

Both of those commie piggies should be locked up. Their lawfare life styles are the true danger to democracy.

Garland should be jailed... The position of United States Attorney General has always been political to some degree, but his bias is beyond reasonable. It’s even worse than Eric Holder’s crass political bias... It’s criminal in nature and Biden, Harris and Garland aren’t hoodwinking anybody.

Even Democrats understand that these criminal cases against Trump are vindictive political theatre, and that no former President or political appointee from a previous Government has ever been harassed in such a blatantly political manner.

Trump said he would ‘drain the swamp’... Sadly he didn’t, but when he gets elected again the first thing he should do is hire United States Attorney General who’s just as politically blatant and criminal as Garland is, to charge and convict Merrick Garland and each and every attorney who participated in his political witch hunt.

These evil tools of Satan are messing with men who just want to be left alone.

May God have mercy on their souls, we who just wanted to be left alone, will not.

The DOJ poisoned itself by allowing it to happen weak people in high places has destroyed many governments.

DEI is a tool for a reason as well as CRT.

Ignorant voters are the fuel to that system.

Burying the laptop story did not have any sway over the election.

Biden and his handlers were stealing it no matter what. No matter the costs

They compromised state/county governments and all the courts. County election folks allowed Facebook to break the law.

They had SCOTUS in their hip pocket.

SCOTUS said they couldn’t interfere in the 2020 election fiasco, as it a state matter. Then it interjects itself in the Moore decision when NC wants to make the rules, per the Constitution.

Seemingly, damn near everyrhing is compromised.

Eric Holder poisoned the DOJ

He brought into full play the leftist ideological monopoly in DC, and fascist tactics, which first became obvious under Reno-Clinton.

The DoJ is probably 90% leftist. It is not going to be possible to replace even a majority of them. The laws are complex and poorly written and the people that understand them are rare birds.

At best Trump’s AG will stop or rationalize the most egregious prosecutions.
