    I’ve been hoping Biden would do this since the SCOTUS decided he can’t commit crimes as POTUS. Just have a list of every Republican and SCOTUS justice who has been credibly accused of crimes. Then just send those to the FBI to have investigations, charges and arrests fast-tracked.

    Afterall, those are the positions where criminals can do the most harm and investigation should be taken serious and done quickly.

        Yeah. That’s the real answer to this: exploiting this fuck-awful SCOTUS decision plunges the US into an authoritarian state.

        The choice is: do you let Trump and Republicans do it if they win and turn American into a christo-fascist state? Or do it yourself to prevent that and turn into a “better?” abusive state? There’s really no winning here but we have to do something or we’re screwed.

          If the choice is between a benevolent dictator and a normal dictator, I choose the former all day long.

          The only reason to choose the latter is if you actually want a dictator because you believe you won’t be affected or because you hope that it will rally a resistance.

          Either way we are fucked.

        That’s not something a person who gets elected President of the United States has. Take off the rose colored glasses.

      The Democrats still seem to think you can fight fascists by pointing out that they’re being naughty and impolite.
