Transparency & oversight.

You're rooting for corruption if you have an issue with government agencies holding one another in check.

no not at all. i have a problem with two parties that are supposed to be "for the people" but all they do is attack each other.

it's not a gov't, it's complete stagnation of rule.

and lets face it, they only care about the doners and lobbyists. why i get downvoted I will have no idea, but i don't care.

believe what you want to believe, this is a show.

You’re too lazy to do the work of actually understanding the issues so you’d rather just pretend both sides are the same

  • Mike Pence was Trump’s VP.

  • Chris Wray runs the FBI. He was appointed by Trump.

How is this “two sides” attacking itself?

It’s one conservative Trump appointee (Wray) overseeing a search of another conservative Trump appointee (Pence) in relation to classified documents and other evidence of potential crimes.

And Trump said he would be “tough on crime” and “drain the swamp” of “Washington insiders” who were “corrupt”.

Are you not satisfied that Trump’s FBI appointee is trying to do EXACTLY THAT by searching Pence’s property?

Biden and the Dems have ZERO to do with what Chris Wray decides to do.

And unlike Trump (who fired the former FBI director James Comey when Comey wasn’t doing Trump’s bidding) Biden isn’t going to fire the FBI director just because that director is a lifelong Republican who was appointed by a prior administration.

So it’s exactly how you’d want it to go.

There is no “government war” here (despite the empty rhetorical claims that you and numerous other idiots on Fox News and Facebook claim).
