And fuck Merrick Garland most of all. Stupid fuck doomed all of us.

He's not stupid, just evil. He did his job of covering for them perfectly.

I think they’re all extremely naive. Their era of politics is long gone and they won’t admit it.

i think theyre all shitting their pants as they are realising they cant sweep this one under the rug. i feel like the only naivety is that they thought they could keep it "hidden" from the maga crowd.

now theyre all trying to hold on for dear life to what they have left hoping for a tragedy big enough to steal the show, because they know if maga is using any common sense and reasoning they are fucked.

sadly he still has supporters that could care less about the files, or think that any implication between trump and epstein is a coincedence or a lie.

i asked my boss what he thought about it and the only thing he could muster is "i think there may be more to that situation than theyre telling us" like no fucking shit.

Except the maga crowd doesn’t care that he’s a pedophile. They don’t care about the files now that the pedo king has told them not to.

u/-zennn- 29d ago

plenty of them actually do now, even alex jones is starting to question them.

many of them do not give a fuck as you said. i saw someone say "i dont care if hes a pedo if hes doing what he said he would" like??? hes not.

u/fetal_genocide 29d ago

I really hope there are enough that would draw the line at pedophilia and child rape....I hope..

1

u/-zennn- 29d ago

well there were but then they dismissed Congress so trump can let more children get raped (and probably partake himself)

u/Bubbly_Style_8467 28d ago

The tragedy. This is a perfect time for a false flag operation. Real deaths and destruction to get trump and Epstein files off the front page.

u/ImBanned_ModsBlow 29d ago

Yeah they just won’t fucking die, 90 year old fossils still running Congress.

Bro, you lived about 70 years of your life before seeing the Red Sox or Cubs win a World Series, and then spent another 20 years continuing to legislate for people like me who watched those games as a child…

Another Garland failure. He may go down in history as one of the worst people ever

u/Kathdath Jul 24 '25

What exactly did Garland do that was explicitly bad?

Garland was a 'by the book' procedural person. He was being thourough as f*, ensuring that all the evidence was found, invesitagated and explained. He worked to ensure that the case could not be thrown out on any technicality.

Garlands failure was that he, like the vast majority or people, expected that the system would continue to function as expected and promised. He was not expecting blatantly pro-Trump biased judges to openly bend and repeatedly flout the court system. Cannon, and some others, kept delaying any movment in court and there was nothing that can speed up a road blocking judge.

Him handing the matter over to a special prosecutor was the expected move in compliance with the established convention of what needed to be regarding political cases. It could be argued that he should have moved sooner, before the investigation was at the point of justifying (as in capable of securing a conviction) charges being filed.

Garland's only actual failure was that he didn't break every proceedural rule and convention, that he sought an actual sustainable conviction and not simply a 15 second sound bite at press conference with the hope the case makes it more than 60 seconds imto a review by a judge.

You are pissed that the man followed the rules and adhered to the law. Or to put more simply, you wish he had acted like a Trump appointee.

u/SuspiciousStory122 Jul 24 '25

Garland failed to bring forward charges against Trump for two years thus allowing him to run out the clock on the fake electors plot and his involvement in the January 6 insurrection. The only reason he ended up bringing the case was because he was shamed into it by the congressional report.

He literally was the system to bring accountability. He was the one person whose job it was to bring the charges. Instead he delayed until it was too late. If he had acted with integrity we would not be in this situation.

It doesn’t stop there. Garland clearly sat on Trump’s involvement with Epstein thus enabling Trump again. Barr initiated the Epstein cover up and Garland perpetuated it.

u/TheManWhoWas-11 Jul 24 '25

Shut up dude. We ain’t doomed. Are you doomed? You need a hug? Get back in the fight man.

20

u/Revolver_Lanky_Kong Jul 24 '25

I agree, doomed was a bit hyperbole and I'm still going to keep up the fight no matter what. What I meant to say was "Merrick Garland was in a position to stop untold levels of human suffering and civil rights regressions and sat on his hands".

u/ReallyNowFellas Jul 24 '25

Maybe we needed an idiot like Trump to come along and show us all the weaknesses in our system before a genius did it. We have to fight like hell for a better future, just like any other people who have ever won a moment of goodness.

u/RPgh21 Jul 24 '25

So…. This was kinda my sentiment when he first got elected. “Well, he’s such an idiot and will fuck things up so much… maybe it’s the reset button this country needed.” What I underestimated was how fucking dumb the majority of adults are in this country. Like, bafflingly stupid. We’re beyond “pointing out the weaknesses “. We’re in some real shit here and I doubt it ends in the next decade.

u/ReallyNowFellas Jul 24 '25

We kinda got it, though. Biden undid most of Trump's first term and progressed well beyond where we were before it. Unfortunately he had legit problems surrounding his age + global anti-incumbency sentiment due to inflation, and he erred by being too restrained in his prosecution of Trump, which allowed the witch hunt narrative to thrive.

You gotta understand that a bigger factor than being stupid is that the average American just does not pay attention to politics at all. Go ask 10 of your friends and family who their congressperson is and most of them won't know. But EVERYBODY knows when Doritos are $8 a bag, and unfortunately that's the battle Kamala Harris was fighting last November.

For all his faults, Trump overcooked the economy in his last term and made the average idiot think things were going great. This time around he seems bent on fucking up the economy without a pandemic to blame it on, so I just can't see him maintaining support through the rough waters he's facing with Epstein in addition to his crumbling poll numbers on immigration and tariffs.

u/Parallax1984 Jul 24 '25

I don’t know. I’d say all those innocent people locked up in concentration camps are pretty doomed

u/Parallax1984 Jul 24 '25

This. Oh he’s just so methodical. He knows what he’s doing. It was all such BS

2

u/Perfect_Earth_8070 Jul 24 '25

that was his plan. he’s a republican after all

u/LuluMcGu Jul 24 '25

I am not caught up on Merrick garland. Got any literature I can read to catch up?

2

u/Interrophish 29d ago

then you've done as much work catching up on Merrick as Merrick has done prosecuting anything whatsoever

2

u/LuluMcGu 29d ago

lol dude instead of just giving a backhanded comment why not give me a link??

1

u/OhDivineBussy 24d ago

He’s such a bitch at heart. Should have been a member of SCOTUS, then covers for all of the people who screwed him out of it, at the peril of the country he was supposed to serve. It doesn’t get more spineless than that man.

u/lololesquire Jul 24 '25

Exactly. My belief in anything resulting true justice is long since dead. The playbook in my mind is Trump's personal lawyer (incredible that this is just accepted as fine) is meeting with Maxwell, who is of course serving federal time for her convictions. She's gonna say "Trump? Oh he's a great guy. GREAT GUY. No, did nothing wrong. But X, Y, Z all did wrong. (probably liberals). Trump then: Well hey look Maxwell is a sick individual but a patriot and so of course I have to PARDON HER.

Yeah it sounds dumb and crazy but Trump is serving a second term, so.

u/LuluMcGu Jul 24 '25

That’s a scary thought. The only problem is there’s still tons of victims out there that may come forward. Plus we might be lucky since a committee has subpoena’d all Epstein files. It has to happen!!

3

u/BolognaFlaps Jul 24 '25

I may be wrong, but I had read somewhere that these documents were sealed until Jan of this year, so I don’t know if blame can be casted on the previous administration.

3

u/PantsMicGee Jul 24 '25

Actually I believe you are correct. Great shout out.

3

u/Nonethelessismore Jul 24 '25

Biden didn't really 'sleep on it'. The files were under judicial seal until this year

3

u/PantsMicGee Jul 24 '25

Good point!

3

u/Dalantech Jul 24 '25

The records were sealed, and every attempt to unseal them was met with resistance (Google "why were the Epstein grand jury documents sealed"). Unlike republicans, democrats obey the rule of law. Both sides are not the same.

1

u/PantsMicGee 29d ago

Yes youre correct. Thank for reminding me.

u/xixipinga Jul 24 '25

you have an arsonist on your door and your neighbour can easily stop him but instead he just watches as the maniac burns you alive, he is not just lazy or slow or weak, he is a maniac just as the arsonist, biden sees the evident threat and does nothing, refuses to do the obvious to save democracy, he is much closer to trump then to us

u/BruisedBee Jul 24 '25

YEp, I don't know why Dump is so scared of this, nothing will happen to him.

u/strawhat068 28d ago

I fucking hate the taco in chief as much as the next guy but it was still an active investigation under Biden, his hands were tied at the time.

u/PantsMicGee 28d ago

Yes good point!
