    It is ALWAYS cowardly Democrats who aren’t willing to push the issue.

    If the issues were flipped, you better believe Republicans would have some way to escalate and prolong the topic. Even if the end result was nothing, they would have drummed up some BS charges. While not the same thing, look at what they did with B E N G H A Z I. They strung that non-issue for literally years, dragged Hillary in front of congress for hours and hours. They turned it into such an issue in the news that even today average people think “something” went down with Hillary there and those hooked on Fox definitely think it was a huge crime and cover-up.

    To Republicans, it doesn’t matter if an issue is legitimate or even if they have any authority to investigate it. It is all about creating a massive frenzy which corporate media will take and run with it and blow it up even further. This is how Republicans poison the well when it comes to getting people to swear off ever even considering voting Team Blue.

      And nothing you’re complaining about can prevent that from happening again.

      Meanwhile, back in reality, both California & Texas are investigating these events & the Federal DoJ is as well for all you know. No one had any idea they were going to federally indict the cops that killed Breonna Taylor until they did it. A legitimate DoJ doesn’t broadcast an investigation.

        They aren’t going to do shit. This should have been turned into a massive human trafficking scandal already. Dems should have riled up the news media, dragged various Republicans involved in front of Congress. Made a huge circus around the issue. But they didn’t.

        And then it happen again.

        And they still did nothing.

        And it happened again.

        Republicans know Democrats are spineless and thus will bully them and make them look bad.
