I wonder how republicans and the right-wing press would react if it was found that Donny T was sharing classified info with his buddy Vladdy P - would they be OK with that? And I wonder how Kevin McCarthy can investigate AG Garland out of pure vengeance, which would be more of an assault that "could only take place in broken, Third-World Countries" than the FBI's judicially-sanctioned raid of Mar-a-Lago.

The question that keeps rattling around in my mind is this: is vengeance a legitimate cause for investigation? Do they not need probable cause and evidence of criminal acts to pursue an investigation? Or are we going allow the GOP (either party, really) to prosecute/persecute anyone who disagrees with or offends them?

I am quite certain that the FBI and the DOJ weighed this decision heavily and with full consideration for the political $#!tstorm it would cause. Donny T and the right have reacted as if the FBI has raped the Virgin Mary Herself - an accurate assessment of the cult-ish esteem in which tRump is held, Holy, Pure and Infallible, above any laws or civil restraints.

If, in fact, the raid uncovered evidence of crimes, the DOJ MUST press charges. Not just against Donny, but anyone who aided and abetted his crimes. They must do it by the book, and micro-manage it like a manned space flight to Mars.

And, they must apply the law equally. To everyone. There can be exactly ZERO exceptions.

We must ask ourselves if we want to be a Nation of Laws or a Nation under Thug rule - I know what I want, and have zero tolerance for anyone who thinks the Thugs should be in charge.
