If someone started walking in New York City when the OP created this thread they would be in El Paso Texas right about now. And the investigation continues.
so again- you were ok with this considering your response on how it will be same for Trump according to you? Also, it's odd you equate conspiring to collude with a hostile foreign nation to influence a presidential election as equivalent to shoddy risk management.....
Sorry to point out again that your example is regarding bankers where present day investigation is regarding the POTUS....
so again, what exactly am I supposed to weep about? This was the hill you were willing to die on here?
Simply pointing out the double standard that you are fine with.
Investigating a SITTING PRESIDENT receiving money from a foreign power to benefit his election is a FAR CRY from investigation of corrupt banking activities. Those bankers are NOT authorizing tax, defense, and trade policies - or appointing SC justices.
There is NO equivalency.
People are clearly PAID to post this nonsense - because NO LOGICAL person with three brain cells would.

The bold above.
ABSOLUTLY NO PROOF TO DATE.
actually it's not a double standard b/c it's to different things.. You are truly becoming the king of the non-sequiturs....
btw- as for the bolded, you would have a point, except the actual people involved have already admitted to it. Had Obama and Axelrod admitted to what Trump Jr, Manafort, and Kushner, along with Daddy already have he would be on trail by now if GOP was in charge....but by all means keep pushing your nonsense...
In fact, the entire banking sector’s get-out-of-jail free card gives them confidence that they could commit the same crimes again, with little if any legal implications.
Most of the “investigations” of financial institutions over the past six years have swiftly moved to cash settlements, often without holding anyone responsible for admitting wrongdoing or providing a detailed description of what they did wrong.
These settlements have actually perverted the notion of justice, turning accountability into a public relations vehicle. And Holder’s Justice Department has been guilty of cooking the books: they admitted last August to overstating the number of criminal financial fraud charges by over 80%.
Mr. Holder has faced criticism for not prosecuting anyone on Wall Street for their roles in the financial crisis.
Under his leadership, the Justice Department negotiated several billion-dollar settlements for fraud tied to the mortgage market. But Mr. Holder has faced criticism for not prosecuting anyone on Wall Street for their roles in the financial crisis.
Attorney General During Financial Crisis Is Now a Confidant to Corporations
Eric Holder works at a Washington law firm and recently took on Uber’s case
Its difficult to convict bank executives lacking proof of actions on their behalf. One of the largest problems was the fact that there were federal regulators inside these banks that didn't know what was going on, if they didn't know how do you convict a CEO. We have always been lax on convicting banks for wrong doing going back to Reagan, a few convictions would get their attention. It doesn't mean Holder was complicit, these cases are complicated, not a slam dunk like Enron.
Why not release all 101 pages of the FISA renewal application instead of just 21 hand picked pages requested by Nunes and crew? Why only pages 10-12 and 17-34? That is not full transparency, that is cherry picked transparency.
Exactly!
