    Well, your so called guardrails were never anything more than a gentleman’s agreement, that much is plainly obvious.

    The simple fact is Garland’s DoJ completely failed to provide timely justice for the citizens of the USA. Full fucking stop.

      Those same guardrails have repeatedly stopped trump this term.

      Just because things didn’t happen as you wish they did does not mean they failed, full fucking stop.

        Incorrect. The Judicial branch has stopped Trump repeatedly. Furthermore, I was talking about the DoJ’s failure regarding the whole speedy trail thing we are supposed to have in this country. You can stop putting words in my mouth. We don’t need your strawman arguments here.

        FYI, the Executive Branch & Judicial branch are separate.

        The current DoJ has attempted every single illegal thing Trump has requested.

        Please learn how the separation of powers works in the USA.

          Did you mean to respond to someone else? What words were put in your mouth?

          And you might note the thousands who have resigned from the DOJ, leaving mostly incompetent goofs behind who cannot secure convictions. (Because, yup, they respected the DoJ’s independence. In other words, one of those guardrails working.)

            What a silly thing to say.

            Lawyers quitting aren’t a guard rail at all. Lawyers quit because the guardrails aren’t working.

              Lol.

              Yes, losing half your workforce, mostly the best and brightest, is no impediment at all…

              What a silly Billy.
