    I genuinely don’t know what to do with this story. If this was from 2018 or something and the Trump administration were putting pressure to stop an investigation, that makes sense.

      And it’s not like Merrick “I Enjoy Peeing My Bed” Garland didn’t squash any investigations into Trump until 2022.

      Our law enforcement is fucked top to bottom.
