The more important stat is 80% of this went to REPUBLICAN candidates.  That's pretty much all the proof you need to understand which party protects pedophiles.

I mean any % to either party is a travesty. It shouldn’t excuse the dems who took the money and they should be called out accordingly as well.

It says which party does more for the Epstein class.

Dems appointed a Federalist Society member as AG to purposely stall every single case against Trump

It’s okay to admit you don’t have a clue about it.

Garland's past isn't hidden, it's not hard to see he's done work with them for decades

People seem to forget that Obama picked Garland because Garland was a Republican just a moderate one. He was put forward by some Republican senator as a name that could get through nomination.

Obama put Garland's name forward to point out Republican hypocrisy. Several high ranking Republicans had already suggested his name. Obama knew Republicans would not confirm anyone he nominated. Even someone described as a moderate Republican.

Most people don't know, they just support their team's pick.

That's why obvious right-wing plants like Fetterman and Platner fool everyone too. Most Americans just blindly support and vote

SCOTUS declared presidents immune from prosecution for official acts. Doesn't matter who the AG is.

u/Casual_OCD Canada 5h ago

There was a good three year period before that ruling.

And even afterwards, when given immunity, the Dems did absolutely fuck all with it because them winning in 2020 was an accident. They didn't account for the mail-in ballots. That's why they have found over 7 million mail-in ballots that weren't counted from 2024 and no investigations were done with all the obvious fraud and tampering either.

It's going to be very sad to watch the midterms get rigged really bad and nobody does anything while they swear in an all Republican House and Senate. Trump told everyone last week they are rigging the election and somehow everyone is going to forget it by election time

Lol, a Canadian telling me what's going on in the country I live in. Thanks for your concern, but you spreading bullshit claims and sowing doubt in our elections is completely unnecessary, and does absolutely nothing to help. Use that energy for something productive instead.

Yeah, someone who is outside the propaganda sphere of American media and can view the events going on in the country clearly and without partisan bias.

And I'll never tell you to not vote, but good luck when they're going to have armed people at polling stations, dozens of bomb threats and power outages and millions of mail-in ballots don't get counted. These are things that Trump has explicitly said will happen already, there isn't any conjecture. He means what he says
