Acting on a mix of principle and caution, Justice Department officials under former President Joe Biden made a series of decisions that significantly delayed and ultimately may have hampered the federal criminal investigations into President Donald Trump, according to a new book.
The slow decision-making at the top of Attorney General Merrick Garland’s Justice Department affected two major probes into Trump after he lost the White House in 2020: whether he illegally possessed and obstructed the retrieval of classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago residence, and whether he conspired illegally to overturn the 2020 election.
Thanks for the principles you sleepy jackasses
Merrick Garland is to the rule of law as RFK Jr is to public health.
I mean at least RFK is actually pushing for something, even if it is bat shit insane.
Garland is just a fucking coward. I now know why the Republicans wanted Obama to nominate him to the SCOTUS. They’d just have to speak loudly at him and he’d crumble, deciding however they’d want him to.
