But no accountability in the US for politicians or the wealthy. 🤔
Well, they are in power, so no, not until they are not in power. Why is this surprising to people? The Trump DOJ has been working to protect these fucks, but it's not like the Biden admin did a god damn thing with the files. Complete disregard, even disdain for the will of the people is on display and people are surprised they aren't prosecuting their buddies?
MAGAs hide stuff to cover their criminality and corruption, Dems hide stuff because they have no respect for the citizens, and feel we need to be protected, that we can't handle the hard truth of how badly they're all fucking us over.
We can handle the truth just fine, YOU just can't handle the consequences.
There’s accountability for those in power overseas who are named in it.
Why is the US different?
Edit: I guess the last bit of your comment explains it well enough.
