@kyledcheney @politico @joshgerstein @FBI should have interrogated ringleaders of the #Insurrection directly, immediately. They could compare evidence collected to build cases and save time. Instead, many #Insurrectionists are still grifting, recruiting & taking political positions. @January6thCmte @OversightDems
@kyledcheney @joshgerstein This is unbelievable. If politicians are beyond reach, then they are kings and that isn't a Democracy anymore.
@kyledcheney @donwinslow @joshgerstein Still remember when the GOP sold us the Patriot Act, by telling Americans, if you have nothing to hide, why would you care if the government was looking or listening… This really seems like Mr. Perry has many things to hide…
@kyledcheney @joshgerstein It's like the courts are anti-democracy.
