Tjey should at least investigate jared and Ivanka in the white house and their business dealings. Like how he got a bailout on his tower and the $2 bill from the Saudis. Did Jared trade our secrets and security for $2 billion?
Because it’s not worth the resources to worry about. The GOP is just doing it because they don’t actually know how to govern; they need something they can point to that looks like they’re actually doing something, and they know it spins up their low education voters.
Pretty much this. The democrats put their resources into passing infrastructure and inflation bills and investigating the events around Jan 6.
Everyone agrees that the Trump kids got up to no good but the relative seriousness of their crimes compared to everything else Trump did was pretty small.
Since the Republicans have no actual dirt on Joe Biden and are about as capable of passing legislation as a bag of ornery chipmunks, they latch onto these ‘scandals’ that would barely be a blip for any Republican administration.
Nepotism isn’t actually illegal (though it’d be nice if it were)
You can’t prosecute someone based on laws you feel should exist. That’s what fascists do.
If you have issues with this sort of thing (which happens at all levels of politics and business, not just with Trump and Biden), then you should write your representative about it and advocate for new laws to be made.
Hell, id cosign that letter, but I wouldn’t advocate for the prosecution of someone based on laws that don’t exist, not even the Trumps (though I do happily advocate the many prosecutions underway for the things they’ve done that are genuinely illegal)
That circular reasoning. Investigations are conducted based on evidence. If there’s no evidence of illegality, then there’s no reason to investigate. You can’t just go violating somebody’s rights because you suspect something. That’s why cops have to get warrants.
This isn’t strictly true, but even if it were, do you see anyone on the democratic side opening investigations into the Trump kids doing this?

This implies that the republicans had a good idea, which should have given you pause for thought in and of itself.

Actually it is illegal for the president to hire family members. There was a law passed that says exactly that.
Is that true? Then how did Trump have his whole family employed during his presidency? I’m sure the democrats wouldn’t have just let that go
I’m not sure. But it is true. Google president nepotism law.
This DOJ opinion letter from the day the orange took office argues that the president is exempt from the nepotism law when filling Whitehouse positions, so it may not be as law as wed assume.
If you can produce any evidence that they did anything illegal, then, yes, there should be an investigation into that.

Only because he placed them into public servant governmental roles. Those are specific and unique.
Because of all the things they did that are crimes, that’s not one of them.
