Marjorie Taylor Greene files articles of impeachment against Garland
Caroline Vakil

She has no understanding of the legal system whatsoever IMO. When someone has been in so many legal problems as donald and winds up having a Grand Jury impaneled to decide whether to charge him with crimes, a legally signed off on by a Republican Magistrate, search warrant is nothing to even think of impeaching the head Law Enforcement Officer of the US over. I believe if anyone deserves to be impeached it is greene and her friend boebert, not that I am suggesting anyone do such as the two of them are full of Sturm und Drang with no substance.

Ex-Virginia police officer sentenced to more than 7 years in jail for role in Jan. 6 riot

Thu, August 11, 2022 at 6:01 PM.....At a two-hour sentencing hearing for former Virginia police Sgt. Thomas Robertson in U.S. District Court in Washington, Judge Christopher Cooper told Robertson that as a member of law enforcement he took an oath to obey the law. But citing witness testimony and text messages, the judge said that Robertson had told a close friend that he was prepared to fight a “civil war.” Even after his arrest and initial release on bail, the judge said Robertson destroyed evidence and kept a sophisticated rifle and “explosive device” at his home in violation of the court’s order. Federal authorities ultimately re-arrested Robertson and learned that while on bail, he had arranged to buy more than 30 more guns in violation of the judge’s order."
Totally a NONSEQUITUR with trumps "inspired" anger that led another individual to try an attack on the FBI in Ohio, endangering citizens on the Interstate as he fled and had a firefight with police. Yet trump is duplicitous and is self stated to be totally behind law enforcement.... What senselessness of both supporters of donald and his support for law enforcement. I say donald should apologize for this UNPRECEDENTED ( and many other UNPRECEDENTED events (such as Charlottesville where donald stated both sides had equally good people" UNPRECEDENTED for a sitting or even ex-president to say),.... attack on the FBI,.... led by his own supporters, narcissism, boisterous speeches with false and misleading statements riling his supporters for his personal benefit, IMO.

MTG Demands To Speak To The Manager After FBI Seizes Rep. Perry’s Phone
Cristina Cabrera - Yesterday 11:33 AM"
Majorie, I suggest you do your elected job rather than trying to be something you are neither hired for nor knowledgeable of or should legally have the knowledge of an investigation of another congressperson that is a friend of yours. You need to let the legal process take it's course.

Satellite images show damaged warplanes after Crimea explosions, despite Russian claims: Ukraine updates
Christine Fernando and Jorge L. Ortiz, USA TODAY - 1h ago"
"Latest developments:
►Russian journalist Marina Ovsyannikova, who was fined three times for criticizing the war in Ukraine, has now been detained and faces 10 years in prison if convicted, her lawyer said. Ovsyannikova’s home was raided and she was taken for questioning Wednesday.
►The European Union's ban on Russian coal imports went into effect Thursday as part of the fifth package of EU sanctions against Russia. A British defense intelligence update said "the increasing effect of Western sanctions" have significantly strained Russia's military industrial complex."
The first bullet point is a true example of a raid as opposed to the FBI carrying out of a legal search warrant approved by a Democratic judge under the rule of law.
The last paragraph as juxtaposed with donalds close friend, putin, who;
-won't even call a war a war
-admit to the drastic losses he is incurring by his war, in terms of the military personel, equipment,... losses
-won't allow people to talk of the war without being arrested as the above article references the subject and sent to prison or more likely a Gulag (worse than prison as for Alexi Navalny, putins opponent that was poisoned, extremely likely by putins order as many other opponents of putins were)
-putin won't allow gov't or military officials to give accounts of what happened to sons or daughters of parents who lost their children in the war, instead claiming many are " missing from their posts" (as if they deserted rather than being dead on the Moskov)
-endless Inhumane treatment of: Military and civilians by a dictator.
Some in the US actually wish to have someone like putin "in charge" against the constitution, and founding principles....
-1. Find an exceptional Mental Health Therapist or facility and wholly (Donald, you'll love this word) INVEST yourself in recovering your mental health.
-2. Follow the Serenity Prayer every day.
-3. Spend at least 20 hours a week, finding and apologizing to all those you have wronged.

I would like to hear the same statements under sworn testimony as both individuals have been known to tell many "stories" to attempt to elicit sympathy from his base... They are attempting to make the top federal law enforcement agency wrongfully partisan. How about trumps useage of the FBI to, for the 2nd time carry out an investigation that proved fruitless, on Clinton just a couple months before the Presidential election? They play up the religious decision of the Supreme Court (by far and away not all religions, and against the constitution) while trying to make a mockery of the legit actions of the Justice Dept. This is like the denigrators of Anne Heche for her celebrity, except a complete deflection where the person who has greatly harmed, IMO and a large # of others, DEMOCRACY.
‘They’ve declared war!’: Republicans freak out after FBI seizes Scott Perry’s cellphone
Raw Story - Yesterday 6:30 PM"
All the complaining in the world won't do a bit of good. The Grand Jury or judge the issued the warrent to take your phone believed you would delete info like the Secret Service,... evidently or the judge wouldn't have issued such a warrant. You won't get any info from the Grand Jury as legally neither they, the judge or AG Garland can provide any. Your freaking out only makes you look guilty. As with any citizen going through an investigation you just have to wait.

Utterly and extremely partisan, even though the Magistrate is most likely a Republican with all his Republican connections: Wife appointed to a ?judge position by Republicans,....
"FOX NEWS HOST" presented this PHOTOSHOPPED photo on the carlson show. carlson and many conspiracy theory spreading FOX hosts need to be terminated for spreading such false items, false stories ... Even so called Commentators need to be honest and state it is merely their speculation, not fact (I wish they would have to announce how they know they are raking in the ad,... money by spreading all this/harming democracy.)

It appears Donald does not like being held accountable. He and his ilk are, IMO, coming across in such an infantile way. I guess it's true Donald has never been held accountable as he and everyone has to be.
