Related: About this forumCoup evidence bolsters case for AG Garland to indict, as DOJ faces heat over 'double standards'
The January 6th Report drops with a blueprint for The Department of Justice on how to indict former President Trump and the alleged coup plotters. In this special report, MSNBC Chief Legal Correspondent Ari Melber walks through the January 6th Committees exhaustive, meticulous mountain of evidence and how close they came to pulling off a coup that would have ended democracy and the rule of law as we know it.
Melber says its time for Garland to weigh that evidence without fear or favor to the people involved adding there is a disturbing double standard in Merrick Garlands Justice Dept. where the lawyers and the connected and the powerful are held to a different, lower standard than the people who rushed the Capitol. - The Beat - MSNBC - Aired on 01/02/2023.

.....that it isn't Trump who is being protected, but rather the SCOTUS majority who are RW Federalists who work to exert their religious dogma over us all.
Their pitiful bleat this week about how much that five-person majority needs protection from the American people is a tell.
How about the untold millions who fear that Federalist majority? Where is their/our protection from bad law meant to impose dogma?
