Do they want torches and pitchforks? Because continuously allowing open corruption to go unchallenged in full view of the public is how you get torches and pitchforks.
- It's been about 40-60y since our last go at it, they've forgotten and should be reminded. Kindly first, then with a bottle of chianti if necessary.
- No you don't
  As long as your constituents are fed a raw daily diet of fox news lies, nothing will happen
  If the USA wants to be truly great, it would start by putting each and every fox news / oan employee against a wall
  People would then dtartt getting actual true news and revolt within days

This is peak America... Mass murderer, rapist, old lady punching, bank robber won't face charges as they are the front runner for President!

It's fine, if it's state charges instead of federal then Trump can't pardon him.
- Yeah, hopefully the Texas AG decides to bring char- oh… wait
- “can’t”
