Will Donald Trump Escape Justice?

Politics

As rioters go to prison, the mastermind remains safe and sound.

An op-ed in the New York Times today summed up the grim mood among Democrats regarding the DOJ’s apparent inaction in pursuing federal investigations into former President Donald Trump, and his coterie of criminals in and outside of government for their various roles in the sustained and ultimately lethal attack on American democracy last year. As federal indictments and prison sentences pile up for rioters, the author of the attack remains untouched. It reeks of politics.

The AG happens to be a former law student of the principal author, the Harvard constitutional scholar Lawrence H. Tribe. The fact that Mr. Tribe is calling out his former student so publicly and forcefully betrays a small measure of the shimmering anger many Americans are feeling right now with the DOJ’s political paralysis. This op-ed seems to suggest that Merrick Garland’s seemingly indifferent attitude to the worst attack ever perpetrated against American democracy is untenable, at best.

Surely, he must care? History will judge him based on how he responds.

Yet there’s a creeping sense that Donald Trump is getting away with his crimes, accompanied by the growing fear that he will seize that impunity and use it to once again regain power. He’s made no secret of his intentions.

Thus, the op-ed pleads with the Attorney General to act decisively, a sentiment every American who loves democracy can surely appreciate.

Yet one year after the insurrection, Donald Trump remains effectively immune from any meaningful federal inquiry into his vicious coordinated attack against our government, and the public remains unaware of any such investigation if one exists. It seems there’s nothing happening behind the scenes to hold this rampaging former president accountable for his efforts to overthrow our government.

Doing nothing is unacceptable if our democracy hopes to survive this attack.
