Still sounds treasonous against the current boss lol

Regardless shouldn’t you guys at the FBI be working on being productive like looking at Biden’s son or does that all go away now?

Why are you celebrating? We had two of the worst candidates for President ever. That is not something to celebrate about. Whatever happens our country has to make it through 4 more years of BS. Then we hope and pray we get a good candidate to vote for.
