Watched a video where Rep James Comer was apparently interviewed by Katherine Herridge. He slams Bondi for lack of arrests. If the interview is real (and not AI), then I would urge everyone to call their representatives and Mr. Comey’s office to apply pressure on DOJ. Having been personally involved in investigating cases involving violation of serious federal laws, I know making a solid case takes time – but it certainly seems like there’s enough information for arrests on some of these cases.
I tried to call Mr. Comey’s D.C. office a short time ago, and the line was busy, so will be trying again.

Denmark and Europe cared squat for Greenland and its handful of indigenous residents until Trump came ‘a courtin’ for the HUGEST undeveloped property deal on the planet.
For example, Denmark in the past had been fitting Indigenous women with IUDs when they came in for medical treatment, without telling them, of course.
Greenlanders would love to be independent. But, less than 200,000 people on a huge mini-continent worth trillions needs a big nation to protect its independence from our planet’s ravenous wolf nations – like China, Russia, and other just as greedy but less tyrannical nations.
I’m pretty sure Trump can cut a deal on this that’s better for the Greenlandians (?) than being a ward of a squabbling, ineffective European Union.
The cost to the US would probably be less than one year’s worth of Somali immigrant frauds on government funds.
