23. I disagree
Mon Mar 9, 2026, 02:27 PM
Yesterday

Merrick Garland was a failure all unto himself. I think Biden could've picked many other AG candidates who would've actually done their job. Especially after an attempted coup by the outgoing POTUS.

SCOTUS has nothing to do with it right now. POTUS is only immune from activities related to its normal duties. Stealing classified documents and attempting to overthrow an election are not those.
