Wouldn't it be reasonable and necessary for Merrick Garland to review the findings in the Mueller report, conduct follow up investigations as necessary concerning Trump's dealings with Russia in connection with the 2016 election, and then determine to move forward with prosecution of Trump at least for obstruction and witness tampering? Doesn't the new attorney general have a duty to pursue this? Mueller's determination to not prosecute Trump was based on Presidential immunity, but it's gone now.
What do you think is the best way to combat the disinformation and outright lies be told daily on Fox News? I find their assault on democracy to be especially dangerous & repugnant.
