Not going to hold my breath on anything regarding Merrick Garland doing what should be done.

@Wileymiller @GottaLaff
I know he will start the process and make a thorough go of it. And it won’t be quick and it won’t be satisfying because that’s not how legal processes work; they are uncertain.
I’ll take the win that a referral has been made at all.

And the win of making a list publicly available of the bribes.

@schmubba I agree. I'm not one who jumps on Garland. @Wileymiller
