Summary

Former federal prosecutor Sara Levine, fired by Trump, warned on 60 Minutes that the Justice Department is “under attack.”

Levine, who prosecuted January 6 rioters, said she was fired for upholding the law.

Legal expert Peter Keisler criticized Trump’s pardons of Capitol rioters, arguing they signal that crimes committed in support of Trump’s agenda may go unpunished.

These actions undermine the rule of law and discouraging accountability for political violence.

    I think at this point, the Boomers have gone all in on “We brought you into this world, and we can take you out of it.”

    As a generation, they have never cared about anyone but themselves. They seized financial and political power early, and they won’t let go until we pry it out of their cold, dead hands.

    But their numbers are dwindling now, and I think we might finally be at a point where – if the other generations band together – we can finally take their political power for ourselves.

      This is my hope, and also why im just not letting myself get angry this time around.

      There was never going to be any change or growth with this deadweight generation.

      This isn’t over and time is on our side.
