Since when is Merrick Garland's word not to interfere with anything related to Trump of any value? I couldn't buy a penny candy (back when they really existed) with it!

I was watching the documentary, "Fall of Minneapolis"; which was about how the trial of George Floyd was corrupted because of left leaning activist pressure. I was reminded about the effect that the threat of public rioting has on judges & juries.

From a purely Machiavellian viewpoint, the effect of J6 prosecutions has effectively neutered public demonstrations from the right against rulings by ultra-liberal justices. These justices & juries will essentially have no serious constraints due to public pressure. To be clear, this is just an observation, NOT a call to action..

Given this and the fact that Democrats in the Senate are rubber-stamping extremely liberal ideologues to the federal bench (some for life), it does not bode well for conservatives or right-leaning citizens. Particularly if Democrats are in power for 4 more years. It's very disturbing and the effects are long lasting.

Senator Marsha Blackburn gave a speech on the Senate floor concerning this matter.
