Merrick Garland might have been a decent attorney general in another era when fascists weren’t trying to overthrow our democracy. But in this era when they are, he’s failed us miserably.
I know the common wisdom is that Trump napping during his trial is bad optics (“He accuses Biden of being sleepy but can’t stay awake at his own trial?”), but I also think it undercuts the narrative that he’s scared to death of facing legal accountability. x.com/richsignorelli…

Scratch a conservative, find an authoritarian
History will forever mark Merrick Garland for his epic failure as AG ending the rule of law.
No to the 1st ?; yes to the 2nd. Dems have repeatedly proven that they (& their exec./judicial nominees) can & do hold “their own” accountable (Hunter, Menendez, etc.). Acting like the parties are similarly corrupt is exactly what authoritarians want. x.com/espinsegall/st…

Are you okay, @EricLisann? You’ve been awfully quiet considering all the legal news the past 24 hours. 🙂
SCOTUS is creating a lot of work for itself here since they'll need to come up with the argument for why all these immunities for presidents don't apply to Democrats.
To be clear, I still think SCOTUS will issue a considered decision on this case. By which I mean a decision carefully tailored to prevent any possibility of Trump being tried before the election but without limiting Trump's ability to indict and try Joe Biden next year.
Fun fact: This is also DOJ’s position. Only once a president is no longer in office can they be criminally prosecuted for ANYTHING. x.com/jentaub/status…

I always feel the need to belabor the point that, per some ingenious DOJ guidelines, a SITTING prez. is ALREADY immune from being criminally prosecuted for ANYTHING. It’s only once they’re a FORMER prez. that you can even think of charging them w/ crimes. x.com/MaryLTrump/sta…

Hey, remember that time Democratic Senators flew to Harlan Crow’s ranch and held a press conference, to call for him to force Clarence Thomas to return his bribes? Oh, that didn’t happen? Oh, Republicans create spectacle for today’s media and Democrats are too cowardly to do so?

Note that my tweet below not only applies to Meadows but to every other name @harrylitman lists: Giuliani, Ellis, Eastman, & Bobb. Because not ONE of them has been indicted by DOJ. (Being an unindicted co-conspirator doesn’t count since you’re UNindicted.) x.com/JabbaNoBadda/s…

So AZ’s AG was able to accomplish in 478 days what Merrick Garland wasn’t able to accomplish in 1,140 days? (Namely, the indictment of Mark Meadows) Or, if you want to separate out Garland’s time from Jack Smith’s time, Garland=617 days & Smith=523 days. x.com/harrylitman/st…

Garland's done neither.
@ACLieberman Fanone is right. This all falls on Garland. He dragged his feet for almost 2 years. The J6 committee shamed him into action. Rep. Elaine Lauria asked Garland to "do your job, so we can do ours." Garland has been a terrible failure as AG. No hyperbole. He failed. It's maddening.
@SeptemberBreez2 @JabbaNoBadda Never thought he was..we can thank our disgraceful AG..and Joe for appointing him..and not waking the F up and asking for his resignation
@JabbaNoBadda @Andreas43937443 No, he's not "scared to death," because he knows that he will be treated with kid gloves by the "justice" system. Just as he always has.
@AliceTinker1943 @JabbaNoBadda Yup he is an actor? He knows what he’s doing
@JabbaNoBadda Agree..the latter is more believable by his supporters unless convicted
@JabbaNoBadda Agree. It's middle finger to, "you really can't do anything to me." Problem imo with that is, trump does have to be in court each day, which he whines about incessantly, so next step of him having to follow further court orders can slippery slope quickly. See what happens.
What better way to manage the Terrible Twos?
The Court is Corrupt. Say It With Me. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/the-cou…
Merrick Garland investigated Joe Biden and his son. Ignored the Mueller Report, Jared and Ivanka’s WH crimes,Trump’s Covid mismanagement. Sat on January 6th insurrection for 2 years. Hasn’t charged any house and senate coup plotters. Why is he still employed? @POTUS #MorningJoe
Merrick Garland might have been a decent attorney general in another era when fascists weren’t trying to overthrow our democracy. But in this era when they are, he’s failed us miserably.
My take on why Roberts and Kav have been more extremist lately is pretty simple. Those two were legit afraid of retribution if they killed Roe, and Alito was like “Dems ain’t gonna do shit.” And Alito was right. So now those two realize NOBODY is going to stop them.
@JabbaNoBadda So true. I cringe when I read some of the tweets from the DOJ alums. Sometimes I wonder if they understand what Trump is doing. Many of us rubes predicted this outcome from the get-go.
@JabbaNoBadda @LitmusTaster2 I have no hope left.
@JabbaNoBadda We’d probably admire the legal team of a mob boss when their strategy succeeded every step of the way.
@JabbaNoBadda @AliceTinker1943 but the jury? I doubt it.
@JabbaNoBadda Yes! Will people never learn that there’s always a method to Trump’s madness? Many DOJ alums mock him and his legal team, but so far Trump et al. are way ahead of the game.
@JabbaNoBadda He knows he has SCOTUS as his ultimate out. Everyone says "but this is a state court!" So what? This SCOTUS Star Chamber 6 actively looks for state laws to overturn for their agenda.
@JabbaNoBadda I also think it’s his way of showing that the trial is beneath him. People are underestimating him again. I don’t think any of this is accidental.
