See that's the thing...I don't think any of us, nor POTUS, are ok with halfassed cases where perps go free.  I can just see the "arrests or gtfo" crowd..halfassed weak cases don't accomplish shit, then they'd be complaining about that.    But, if strong cases are brought regardless of how long it takes and the perps get justice, even that crowd will quickly forget "how long it took" to get there - they'll just be happy with the end result as we all will be. Remember, this isn't just about individuals.  Organizations outlive individuals.  The organization needs to be put 6 feet under. And to your point about leaking, have you not noticed how there aren't leaks with any of Barr's investigations?  I've definitely noticed.  And I think that this is part of the reason many of us get the idea that "nothing is happening."  We've become so accustomed to corrupt law enforcement leaking shit all the time, we think something is wrong when it's not happening - all the while the exact opposite is true.    THIS is what it looks like when it's being done by the book.
