Summary

President Biden expressed regret over appointing Merrick Garland as Attorney General, criticizing Garland’s slow action in prosecuting Donald Trump for the January 6 insurrection while aggressively pursuing cases against Hunter Biden.

Biden reportedly blamed former Chief of Staff Ron Klain for persuading him to choose Garland over other candidates, such as Doug Jones, who was seen as more politically assertive.

Many Democrats share Biden’s frustration, believing Garland’s cautious approach harmed efforts to hold Trump accountable.

    He was a Trump pick originally. The fact Biden kept him was so stupid. Fuck Garland, fuck Trump, and fuck Biden.

      No, he wasn’t. He was Obama’s pick for a Supreme court seat. Why are you spreading obvious lies?

        And Obama picked him because he was a conservative do nothing that he thought the Republicans could agree on because, and this is important, he is the kind of person that stayed a Republican even when the party turned fascist.
