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.
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.
