  2. ⬆️ meeting between #HakeemJeffries and #JaredKushner

    >> why #Biden did not release the #Epstein files, and it was probably negotiated at a similar meeting back in 2020. I bet these files were discussed with Jared and the next Congress will continue the coverup.

    Never forget that even BEFORE he took office, Biden announced his intention to not investigate #Trump. His AG #MerrickGarland dragged his feet on #Jan6 coup until #LizCheney "jolted" him into action.

  3. Ken Salazar afirma que AMLO no respondió a sus llamadas tras captura de “El Mayo” Zambada

    Ken Salazar aseguró que AMLO no respondió a los mensajes que le envió tras la captura de Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada para aclarar que Estados Unidos no participó en el operativo.

    Por Gabriela Díaz | Reportera                                           

    El exembajador de Estados Unidos en México, Ken Salazar, aseguró que el entonces presidente Andrés Manuel López Obrador no respondió a los mensajes que le envió después de la captura de Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada, ocurrida en julio de 2024, pese a que buscó aclarar que el gobierno estadounidense no participó en el operativo.

    En una entrevista con la periodista Ilia Calderón, para N+ Univisión, Salazar explicó que, al conocer la detención del exlíder del Cártel de Sinaloa, envió una comunicación directa al mandatario mexicano para informarle que la captura no había sido organizada por autoridades estadounidenses.

    Según el exdiplomático, en el mensaje precisó que «no fue nuestro avión, ni nuestro piloto ni nuestra operación», además de ofrecer una reunión para explicar los hechos.

    Afirma que nunca recibió respuesta

    Ken Salazar relató que, al no obtener respuesta, volvió a intentar establecer contacto al día siguiente, pero aseguró que el entonces presidente tampoco respondió a ese nuevo mensaje.

    Durante la entrevista, el exembajador leyó un fragmento de su libro, en el que sostiene que buscó evitar que surgiera la percepción de que Estados Unidos había violado la soberanía de México con la captura de Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada.

    Sus declaraciones se producen luego de que surgieran versiones que cuestionan la actuación de las autoridades estadounidenses en ese caso, tras la difusión de información relacionada con la aeronave utilizada para trasladar al presunto narcotraficante.

    Investigación correspondía a la FGR

    Salazar sostuvo que la investigación sobre la captura estaba a cargo de la Fiscalía General de la República (FGR), encabezada por Alejandro Gertz Manero, y afirmó que el gobierno estadounidense únicamente ofreció colaboración.

    Explicó que tanto el entonces fiscal general de Estados Unidos, Merrick Garland, como la embajada estadounidense manifestaron disposición para compartir información con las autoridades mexicanas durante las indagatorias.

    Asimismo, indicó que funcionarios de ambos países realizaron una inspección conjunta de la aeronave en la que fue trasladado Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada, durante un encuentro celebrado en El Paso, Texas.

    El exembajador añadió que, tras esa reunión, informó tanto a Washington como a las autoridades mexicanas sobre los resultados y volvió a intentar comunicarse con López Obrador, aunque aseguró que nuevamente no obtuvo respuesta. –sn–

  4. RE: zirk.us/@CindyWeinstein/116874

    Considering what #MitchMcConnell did to prevent #BarackObama from putting #MerrickGarland on the #SCOTUS after Antonio Scalia died, it wouldn’t surprise me if the cretin from #Kentucky told his staff to keep his death secret until the #midterms decided his Senate replacement!

    Governor #AndyBeshear should name his replacement effective immediately, unless McConnell proves that he is alive.

  5. Looking in the rear view mirror.

    Seeing the days when I thought Garland's DOJ was #RollingUp prosecutions of Trump and other senior insurrectionists disappearing into the haze.

    Back then I didn't know that Obama had sat on the Epstein Files, leaving voters in the dark about Trump's dealings with Jeffrey Epstein & child abuse for 2016.

    Here's a niche song from those days.

    And #MerrickGarland ROLLED OVER & *observed norms*, did not ask for reassignment. What a crock these Dems are, fiddling while the GOP sets fire to the rule of law.

  9. Just more bullshit leftist propaganda being refuted by facts!

    No, Merrick Garland Did Not Let Donald Trump Skate.

    Within days of being sworn in as attorney general on March 11, 2021, Garland gathered prosecutors from several divisions working on any aspect of the Trump investigations and instructed them to “follow the connective tissue upward ... the January 6 marauders and Team Trump.

  10. ⬆️ @VeroniqueB99

    I wouldn't pay a penny given that #MerrickGarland denied us a denouement after 4 years of fake circus prosecution, and congress similarly came up empty handed after TWO previous impeachments.

    Punishing #Trump will be up to the victors of #WW3 if nature hasn't taken its course by then, or if he hasn't Hitlered himself in his grand #ballroom by then.

  11. Ruben Gallego accuses Merrick Garland of being a coward. First of all Garland did his job and anyone claiming otherwise is either an idiot or a right wing propagandist.

    Second, I don't want to hear lectures about courage from a guy who won't stand up for a trans kid's right to play sports and have a normal childhood, free from the abuses of GOP cry-bullies.

  12. Here we go again with the idiots on the left. Jennifer Welch and Wajahat Ali are essentially blaming Joe Biden for not engaging in fascism first. If the Democrats had jailed Trump then the American people couldn't have elected him. These are not serious people.

    You will notice how all of these Garland attacks are missing expert testimony, because the facts don't align with the narrative.

    >> #Mueller should NEVER have been a #liberal hero. Instead of prioritizing LEGAL prosecution, they should've organized POLITICALLY.

    Yeah? When #Trump weary #Democrats DID organize politically and handed #Biden a victory, he threw away his political capital by letting Mueller evidence expire.

    What followed was ANOTHER 4 yrs of lionizing #MerrickGarland in a series of shocking failures where not a single case against Trump was successfully prosecuted.

    >> #Mueller report should have been not only the end of #Trump but the end of the #Republican Party… What's needed now is a confrontation with uncomfortable truth and a meaningful lasting reckoning and reformation.

    #Biden, even before taking office, even before appointing #MerrickGarland, followed the fine American tradition of NOT punishing the #Confederacy, #Nixon, #Epstein,… and proudly proclaimed he was going to scatter all Mueller evidence to the wind

  15. For the political class that claims the Democrats are out of touch, here's a three time MAGA voter admitting she's the idiot in this scenario. So no the Democrats aren't out of touch; this woman and all the people claiming the Democrats are out of touch are out of touch. The difference between her and them is that she's smart enough to have figured it out. Looking at you Bernie bros and leftists.

    - neighbors dragged off by masked federal agents
    - gas prices skyrocket
    - healthcare subsidies are gone
    - kids go hungry because of SNAP cuts
    - kid go die in another stupid war
    - local warehouse turn into a concentration camp
    - government cut aid to the world's most vulnerable
    - government cut taxes for the rich and corporations

    Remember Bernie & leftists told you both sides were the same.

  18. With regards to the ignorant leftist claim that Trump is president because of Biden and Garland.

    Responsibility: 77M voters and 90M non-voters

    Independence: Biden upheld DOJ separation to prevent the political weaponization of law.

    Judicial Hurdles: SCOTUS invented a new immunity doctrine to shield Trump.

    Delays: Judge Cannon stalled and dismissed the documents case on widely criticized grounds.

  19. If your theory of democracy is that the justice system should have removed your political opponent from contention so voters never got the chance to choose him, you don't actually believe in democracy. You believe in outcomes.

    You wanted Trump gone and you don't particularly care how it happened, and when it didn't happen, you needed someone to blame who wasn't the voters themselves.

  20. Bernie Sanders and his base blaming Garland for Trump's return to power reveals a fundamental misunderstanding of how democracy actually works. It's the same kind of thinking that has plagued that corner of the left for years.

    Everything is someone else's fault. Everything has a simple answer that the establishment was just too cowardly or corrupt to pursue. It's politically lazy and intellectually dishonest.

  21. Trump ran for president because he chose to. He won because enough voters in enough states picked him. Anyone selling the myth that either Biden or Garland are responsible for Trump's second term is either ignorant or purposefully deceitful.

    The legal system and the electoral system are two separate things. Treating them as a single pipeline where one failure inevitably produces the other outcome is just not how any of this works.

  22. Garland wasn't operating in a vacuum. He was facing a Supreme Court that ultimately invented a new immunity doctrine out of thin air to shield Trump from accountability.

    He was dealing with Judge Aileen Cannon in the classified documents case, who bent over backwards to delay proceedings and ultimately threw the case out on grounds most legal scholars found laughable.

  23. Biden didn't control the Department of Justice, it operates independently from the White House. That separation exists specifically so that presidents cannot use federal law enforcement as a political weapon. That's why we're a democracy and not a tinpot dictatorship.

    Criticizing Biden for not prosecuting Trump is essentially asking why he didn't do the exact thing that would have made the prosecution illegitimate.

  24. @bascule

    The claim that Merrick Garland slow walked the prosecution falls apart when you consider what he was actually dealing with.

    Prosecuting a former president is not something you rush. It had never been done before in American history. The legal, political, and constitutional questions involved were unprecedented.

    Trump ran for president because he chose to run for president. He won because enough voters in enough states picked him.

    The legal system and the electoral system are two separate things. Treating them as a single pipeline where one failure inevitably produces the other outcome is just not how any of this works.

    Bernie has never been prosecuted and also has never been President, funny how that works.

  26. @bascule

    The framing also rests on a false binary, as if Trump's only two possible outcomes were prison or the presidency. That's absurd.

    A prosecution doesn't automatically lead to the White House if it fails, and the absence of a conviction doesn't hand someone the keys to the Oval Office.

  27. ⬆️ @Stinson_108 @HakeemG

    >> #Mueller hid behind #DOJ policy to not prosecute a president in office.

    #MerrickGarland was appointed by #Biden, who had declared even before taking office his aversion to continuing investigations of #Trump, which Mueller had explicitly shifted to Biden's DOJ.

    Biden's premature declaration set the tone and direction for DOJ under #Garland, who let Mueller evidence spoil and become time-barred instead of acting on it.

    nbcnews.com/politics/justice-d

  28. ⬆️ @Stinson_108 @HakeemG

    >> a president announcing that he is not interested in investigating even before he has even taken office when the former president's own DOJ refused to exonerate the former one and specifically laid the responsibility on the next one, #Biden's failure is SO tragic.

    There is no evidence that #MerrickGarland even pursued #Trump's money trail to #Russia that #Mueller had painstakingly put together.

    Mueller hid behind DOJ policy to not prosecute a president in office.

    ⬇️

  29. ⬆️ @HakeemG

    >> #Biden was not in charge of #DOJ,… #Garland did go after Trump but prosecuting … takes more than 4 yrs

    Sick and tired of #Trump, we voted for Biden, who BEFORE he even took office, declared his intention to protect Trump by spoiling the #Mueller evidence into oblivion.

    He appointed #MerrickGarland, a non-Democrat, who then slow-walked EVERY SINGLE CASE — even the cut and dried #ClassifiedDocs case.

    Look how #Brazil prosecuted an attempted #coup swiftly

  30. 5 years ago today, #MerrickGarland confirmed as US Attorney General by US Senate.

  31. ⬆️ Sen. #Whitehouse to uncover connections between #Trump, #Russia, and #Epstein

    Umar #Dzhabrailov, a former Russian senator, who committed suicide 4 days ago, described #GhislaineMaxwell as a soulmate.

    Epstein's crimes left a LONG money trail, and that trail winds back to Russia.

    [It bears repeating that #Biden explicitly told #MerrickGarland to not investigate #Trump's money trail, which also led to Russia, and #Garland let the #Mueller evidence go waste—see above]

    youtube.com/watch?v=ylvTFvJvB84

  32. ⬆️ >> many in the #media AND the🔥#DemocraticParty🔥 seemed to internalize that the #Russia "speculation" had "perhaps" gotten out of hand and that "perhaps" we had been wrong to believe there was a troubling connection between #Trump and #Russia after all"

    This was #Biden's greatest failing too when immediately after his election he announced that he was not going to investigate #Trump, and subsequently appointed #MerrickGarland who let the #Mueller evidence go to waste.
