#91 A Year Later · Still Waiting on Justice

Think First with Jim Detjen

About

A year later, many Americans are still waiting — not for vengeance, not for show trials, but for explanation.

This episode of Think First isn’t about indictments. It’s about legitimacy… and what happens when institutions ask for patience, but refuse to explain the delay.

After a year of publicly granted patience, many Americans are asking the same question quietly: Is anything actually happening — and if so, why won’t anyone say so?

We explore why delay can be prudent… but silence is corrosive. Why restraint without communication starts to look like protection. And why trust collapses faster from unanswered questions than from bad headlines.

Along the way, we examine the growing gap between public expectations and institutional communication surrounding issues that have dominated the national conversation — including:

    Jeffrey Epstein and unanswered transparency questionsAllegations of DOJ weaponization and political prosecutionsRussiagate, James Comey, and intelligence community credibilityThe Mar-a-Lago raid and unresolved accountability questionsCOVID lockdowns, mandates, and origin investigationsThe Twitter Files and government–platform coordinationJanuary 6th narratives and disputed law-enforcement claims2020 election concerns and unresolved public trustLarge-scale fraud cases involving NGOs and government oversightQuestions surrounding executive authority and the Biden autopenLongstanding scrutiny of Clinton-era controversies and nonprofit governanceThe role of foreign influence, NGOs, and elite accountability

Not to relitigate them — but to ask a more dangerous question:

What does the public do when institutions ask for patience… but refuse to explain the delay?

This episode models restraint over rage, clarity over certainty, and why silence is never a neutral act.
