I don't get it. None of us gets it.
There was a time when immediate legal and law enforcement action would have taken place against insurrection accomplice like Ginni Thomas and Barry Loudermilk, and not this namby pamby foot dragging nonsense. There was a time when breaking the law was breaking the law. There was no need to WAIT for a committee hearing to expose the obvious.
People are ignoring subpoenas, refusing to show up, and more and more we are discovering just how close January 6th came to becoming a real and successful government dictatorship.
So here we have a committee "unsure" if they will hold this person accountable or hold that person accountable, while insurrection accomplice like Thomas and Loudermilk walk free. The committee dances around holding them accountable. The Merrick Garland justice department dances around holding them accountable. You can't tell me we don't have two systems of justice, one of accountability and one that dances around accountability.
What is it with Ginni Thomas that makes her immune to accountability? Is it her skin color, her high profile husband, her high profile marriage, her position in society? Is Ginni Thomas too high society to be held accountable? Is she untouchable?
And the same goes for Loudermilk. Is he also too high society? Is he untouchable?
Maybe... MAYBE if this process were actually a process with results and accountability then maybe it could be taken seriously. Maybe it would look less like a witch hunt and every day politics.
And maybe... MAYBE if this Merrick Garland justice department acted like it was a REAL justice department with Merrick Garland acting like a REAL attorney general, then maybe people could believe in justice and believe that insurrection accomplice could be held accountable no matter how big or powerful.
I just can't see the point.
Sure, we are outraged but... what CAN WE do about it? The justice system was established to do something about it, but they are not. What was all that constitutional fuss in creating a justice system and United States attorney general all about if the institutions refuse to do their job? Whats the point?
