US-Justizminister Garland verteidigt Razzia bei Trump | DW | 12.08.2022

Für die Durchsuchung des Trump-Anwesens Mar-a-Lago hat es laut US-Justizminister Merrick Garland gute Gründe gegeben. Er habe die Razzia selbst genehmigt. Trump und seine Anhänger vermuten ein politisches Motiv.#DonaldTrump #Durchsuchung #Razzia #MerrickGarland

Attorney General Vows to Pursue Jan. 6 Inquiry ‘at Any Level’

“The Justice Department remains committed to holding all Jan. 6 perpetrators, at any level, accountable under law — whether they were present that day or were otherwise criminally responsible for the assault on our democracy,” Mr. Garland said. “We will follow the facts wherever they lead.”

The remarks came a day before the anniversary of the Jan. 6 assault, when Mr. Trump’s supporters ransacked the Capitol in a bid to stop the certification of Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s election victory. They also came as Mr. Garland faces pressure from Democrats to more aggressively investigate any role that Mr. Trump and his allies may have played in encouraging the violence. ...

I'd like to see Fox News, the Murdochs, the Mercers, and others of the billionaire seditionist class included in scope.

The discouraging bit is that the comments appear to be more extracted through political pressure than voiced with enthusiasm. But we'll take what we can get for now.

Please urge Attorney General Merrick Garland to investigate and prosecute Trump’s alleged crimes, ranging from tax fraud to inciting a deadly insurrection

"Dear friends across the U.S.,

“We have seen the danger that he continues to provoke with his language. We have seen his lack of commitment and dedication to the Constitution.”

These were the powerful words with which Congresswoman Liz Cheney condemned former President Trump -- mere moments after Republicans had removed her from her leadership post in retaliation for her bravery.

Trump is no longer President, but his dangerous stranglehold on the Republican Party remains... especially because he’s never faced the consequences of his actions. But now, wide support could convince Attorney General Merrick Garland to investigate and prosecute Trump and his associates’ alleged crimes, ranging from tax fraud to inciting a deadly insurrection!

So let’s make this call for an investigation massive -- and once 100,000 back it, Avaaz will deliver our voices straight to AG Merrick Garland.

Trump and his associates made a mockery of the Presidential office. The revelations have been chilling: from the President himself inciting an insurrection in a cowardly quest to overturn a free and fair election, to flagrant abuses of power, and reports of a shady tax history. And in his final days in office, he even embarked on an unprecedented pardoning spree favoring his friends and own interests.

The State of New York has already launched investigations into Trump’s misconduct. While that’s a good start, a thorough federal investigation would show that the rule of law is alive and well in the U.S.!

Together, we can send a deafening call to AG Merrick Garland to establish an independent task force within the Department of Justice to investigate Trump and his associates!

As we close out a four year period of divisive instability fueled from the top down, we can only start to heal through unity and accountability. Better times are ahead -- but only if we all work together to preserve American democracy in the name of democracy everywhere.

With fierce determination,

Ruth, Meetali, Nick, Christine, and the whole Avaaz team"
