There is no such thing as an apolitical prosecution. Even down to the most mundane infractions like loitering or a parking ticket, it is all politics. The liberals ignore this to their own demise.
The "justice" system is a weapon. It is capable of destroying whatever it is pointed at - and it is ALWAYS pointed at someone, whether we like to admit it or not.
Federal prosecutors across the country may soon be able to indict members of Congress without approval from lawyers in the Justice Department’s Public Integrity Section, according to three people familiar with a proposal delivered to attorneys in the section last week.
The executive branch may soon bypass an extra step of bureaucracy which exists entirely within the executive branch. Sounds like a shit system to me, but what do I know? Like in Trump 1.0 when the executive branch was responsible for appointing a special counsel to investigate itself, which opted to observe a Nixon era DOJ memo (still fully internal to the executive branch, no "checks and balances" here) that you cannot indict the executive.
This is a joke fucking republic. There have been no fucking rules since Ford pardoned Nixon. I wish people would just report from the perspective that the whole thing is illegitimate, instead of whatever this is.
I mean, it is newsworthy that the administration is planning on going after elected representatives, but with representation like this, cry me a river. My representative is Josh Gothheimer. I wouldn't lose a wink of sleep if he were summarily executed. Fuck that guy.
