If this person gets clearance and is not open about the hate group ties, that can be grounds for prosecution. The big question will be whether or not anyone cares.

Well the attorney general is going to be a pedophile so I doubt we'll see any prosecution on this.

The big question will be whether or not anyone cares who has the ability to do anything about it.

Yeah, I'm sure AG Gaetz will get right on that

Oh, yeah, that will happen with Matt "baby-rapin'" Gaetz as AG. Hell it wouldn't happen with Milquetoast Merrick Garland because that would be "political".

Anybody in the trump cabinet who does not present video proof of them raping a child or committing hate crimes while doing nazi salutes is going to be prosecuted for disloyalty.

It's the trump white house resume.
