of photos released by House Democrats last night but I'm hoping they have kept some of the most shocking ones for use when Bondi doesn't release the full Epstein files. Because she won't, I wouldn't be at all surprised if, under her, some of the worst of it has been destroyed. If it soon becomes clear that is the case I will have even more to say about the epic malfeasance by nonfeasence of Merrick Garland who single-handedly chose his own integrity and so handed the country and world over to Trump II. I would not say he did it "unwillingly" because while I'm sure he would not have wanted that to be the result of his non-action, he is certainly not so stupid as to not understand that would be the likely result. He let the petty scruples of the legal racket and the stupidities of lawyers before him at the so-called Department of Justice govern his actions instead of his reasonably informed sense of morals. Scruples are so often at odds with morality, especially in determining the outcome, which is what morality is all about or it is nothing. The ends he got certainly determine the justice of his means.
This could have been done as soon as the cowardly Merrick Garland knew he wasn't going to seriously investigate or bring to trial the many powerful men in those files and pictures. If he had done that investigation, we would have heard about it so we know he didn't and didn't intend to. He could be certain that Trump II wouldn't do that.
I recently said that a whole load of presidential cabinet posts should, by law, be closed to lawyers, maybe including the Attorney General. I was only half joking about that last one. At the very least, no Democratic president should ever be as sentimental in their appointment of an Attorney General as Joe Biden was in appointing Garland. That is something he should have learned from the disastrous appointment of Janet Reno by Bill Clinton. It probably extends to any lawyer who has gotten the kind of respectability in the legal racket that Garland has. A Democratic Attorney General should be thoroughly aware of the catastrophic consequences of the failures of such as Reno and Garland, sacrificing the legitimate bases of government including the law, equality and democracy and, to continue with my theme below, TRUTH, to their professional rules and scruples. To those who self-righteously assert the lawerly scrupulosity of Garland's famed and declared "institutionalism." of putting the welfare, what passes among lawyers as the integrity of the Department of Justice first, ask yourself how's that workin' out for us all as Bondi covers up for the epic criminality of Trump and the worst presidential crime spree of our history continues without any real legal consequences. The civil law is an ass.
