    You really think so? Not being sarcastic, just don’t want my hopes and dreams to be quashed again, like in 2009 and 2021.

      She broke numerous state and federal laws during her tenure as AG. She does not have immunity. Trump cannot pardon state convictions. She should face a criminal investigation and prosecution.

      Beyond that, I honestly don’t know what will happen. The judicial system has been the most resistant to Trump’s authoritarianism of all three branches. Even with a corrupt SCOTUS.

        Even SCOTUS once in a while resists. Unlike Congress.

        But thanks for giving me hope!
