Which is why the agency needs to be abolished. There's simply no structure where these people will be held accountable. It's beyond redeemable. And no Democratic president is going to be able to "reform" it.
Yeah, I’ve been wondering what a Dem inherits if he wins in 2028; I assume Trump would pardon and indemnify every agent on the way out.
The key issue is whether those who have broken the law and their oath will be suitably punished.
Holder failed to punish the guilty in the 2008 Great Recession.
Merritt failed to punish the guilty in the Trump regime.
Therein lies the rub.

The day one priority of any incoming Democratic administration should be to wipe his name from all government property, and then put a monument statue in DC of him in a clown suit and nose, with a wall behind him engraved with all the lies he ever told and the indisputable facts of those lies.

It can't be stated enough that everyone needs to stop using Google "search". The Gemini platform is directly responsible for this.
I really can't overstate how dire this AI scraping of website content is. My traffic over the last 30 days is down over 90% from the previous year. Visits to my website from searches over the past 30 days is 16 people. I used to get a thousand people every month reading my most popular article.

So now we're not allowed to be upset the white house is being torn down. Yes, there's horrors everywhere and this doesn't rank high. But like, I think it's ok to wax poetic about a symbol of American idealism.

Anyone reading who is local in NH can donate to Gather. I'm a member of the Portsmouth Community Garden and we collectively donated nearly 800 lbs of fresh produce this season. But they take cash too!
