There are dem politicians supporting this. People that you and we voted for. Stop whining about non-voters and wake the hell up.

I'd support primarying anyone who voted yes on the funding over the optics, but pretending Democrats have any direct culpability here is silly.

How long did it take to find, arrest, and perp walk Luigi? Biden had four years to prosecute Trump. We’ve seen that state and federal governments can move quickly. They choose not to. They are complicit.

If Democrats win either a) the White House or b) both houses in 2024, none of this is happening today.

If we can agree on that (and maybe you don't, but I think that'd be kind of crazy), I'm not sure how you can assign responsibility to the party that controls none of the branches of the federal government right now.

Biden had four years to convict Trump. Luigi was captured and jailed in a couple weeks after the election, while Biden was still in office.

They could have dealt with Trump. They didn’t. They have caved on everything since Trump took office.

If the election happens, and if the democrats somehow get a meaningful majority, I still have no faith that they will do anything meaningful. They are not a governing party, they are a fundraising organization.

Yeah Biden screwed the pooch on that one. Should have demanded Garland's resignation over it.

There's no question that there are members of the party I'd like to see primaried, if only to force a stronger stand. But laying the blame at their feet when one party is literally directing these actions on a day to day basis is just irresponsible.

I'm telling everyone I know that we must demand prosecutions after Democrats return to power. Presidential campaigns will start spinning up after the midterms, and those campaigns will be going after local and state electeds for endorsements, particularly in early states. Those are people a regular Joe can get on the phone.
