    I am so relieved that the special prosecutor is defending the rule of law with these indictments. If the Republicans (and not just Trump) got away with trying to overturn the election we could lose our democracy. We still can, but at least they are going to trial against this would-be tyrant and some of the people who helped him.

      You kinda already did when the founding fathers wrote checks and balances into the constitution conveniently forgot that political parties are a thing.

      There are no checks and balances if the ones that are supposed to check and balance you are on your team.
