Trump stole top-secret documents which were requested repeatedly by the National Archives. Trump REFUSED to produce them.

The Biden documents were discovered by Biden’s  lawyers, who immediately reported the discovery to National Archives who was then required to alert DOJ.

NOT the same.
Not even close.

The right-wingers will continue to put their fingers in their ears, cover their eyes, and deny everything you just said.

They do it every minute of every day here in good ol' Murica...Intentional stupidity and alternative facts are now the American Way, at least with this big batch of goobers.

I think most do not understand how the Federal Law works; therefore most think Garland is weak. The main difference is Garland does not leak or create a narrative, he do not give in to the media and make a press conference out of everything.  He is METHODICAL in approach. Law is about methods, practice, and sound judgement. Move to quick, bow to pressure and your case is lost before it make it to the courtroom. A sound lawyer never brings a case unless he has sound, concrete evidence. In this follow the media/social media frenzy, you better be glad for a steady hand. Garland is boring, but he is good. He is exactly what Biden needs, a flashy, over the top AG would be more of a problem. Biden needs a better WH PR team.

I do think that Obama should have nominated a black judge, and let Mitch them  go against that. It was easy to go against Garland.

.......two things, 1) I posted yesterday^^^that Obama phucked up when he nominated Garland instead of a black judge.  There was no reason for Obama NOT to have nominated a black judge, and the fact it didn't happen is inexplicable; and 2) while you contend Garland is "methodical," others perceive to be undue reticence and lack of aggression.  Sorry, but I just don't see how a personality like Garland can contend with the authoritarian/anti-democratic tendencies that now are pervasive among the MAGGATS leadership in this country.

When the newly elected Speaker of the House essentially states that he doesn't give a rat's a.z.z that one member of his conference was elected on the basis of being a KNOWN liar and fraud, then, that tells you all you need to know about the existing political landscape in this country right now.  I just don't think that guys like Merrick Garland are personally equipped to deal with the venal/Machiavellian-like tendencies of people like the newly elected MAGGAT Speaker of the House.
