I really wanted Sally Yates running the DOJ show post-1/6/21. Joe made an unforced error on this one.
Or maybe it wasn't unforced? 🤔
Sally Yates was my first choice, Doug Jones was my second.
I think Biden went with Garland as a consolation prize for the SCOTUS non-appointment (and the botched Clinton appointment), but underestimated the fact Obama chose Garland because he was, well, moderate and centrist. A solid judge who hasn't prosecuted since the '90s.
We needed an AmStaff, we got a Bassett Hound. 😕
@SSNBubblehead very disappointed in the Garland delays
