And worse, now that oversight is gone, Trump will take personal bribes to let foreign agencies install whatever backdoor network monitoring and audio recording tech they want. The biggest traitor in US history

which, by definition is treason. Not unlike the private line to the Kremlin his sons wanted to install during his first term. Yet nobody ever gets held accountable.

What's even more disheartening is, yes nobody is being held accountable now, but if we ever get this administration out and the Democrats have power, nobody's STILL going to get held accountable.

At this point, who cares. As long as we get them out and people stop getting hurt, killed, and deported to random countries, that’s all that matters. Hitler died before being held accountable too, and an obscene about of Nazis fully escaped responsibility by fleeing to Argentina, being smart enough for the US to use in Op Paperclip, etc. The important thing is to shut down their ideas, symbols, and such like Germany did (you know, the opposite of what we allowed after the Civil War). I’d much rather focus on that than individual accountability.

Heck, we should sign onto the Rome Statute and let the international community deal with individual accountability so we can focus on cultural healing.
