Every elected official willing to break the law must be held accountable

[kentuck]

Perhaps they think Donald Trump will be there forever to give them a pardon?

But they must be held accountable. If not by their voters, then by a newly elected Congress. They should be subpoenaed to appear before an Oversight Committee to explain their roles in the most unlawful and corrupt acts of our nations history.

They will answer for their part in the crimes against our nation and our Constitution.

1. Have you forgotten the J6 hearings?

Dozens of republican representatives were subpoenaed to appear in front of the committee, and none did, with zero consequences.

2. I remember Merrick Garland...

....and the Biden Justice Dept.

3. But your post was about congressional hearing to hold criminal politicians accountable

I’m just reminding you how that went in the past.

DOJ is not responsible for enforcing congressional subpoenas.

Merrick Garland was not the villain of that story.

With the exception of Peter Navarro, nobody ignored a Federal grand jury subpoena. (Many, however, invoked executive privilege, and when that was overruled, took the fifth)

5. Congressional hearings would only be for the public good and understanding...

If they are no longer in Congress, they can be subpoenaed.

One way or another, they will be held accountable. Many of them are guilty of corruption and crimes involving illegal transactions with money, such as inside information with their stocks.

6. Unfortunately, a few Dems have also been involved with insider trading.

We agree, if there is evidence of crimes, DOJ should investigate and prosecute any and all politicians involved.

Starting January 20, 2029.

7. "Any elected official..."

Democrat or Republican. That includes them all.

4. Totally agree, every damn one of them.

Don't care what party they belong to. Every one of them.
