Merrick Garland wanted to avoid politics and protect the DOJ as an institution.

Thanks to his actions, or lack thereof, in one fell swoop, he has set the course to destroy the DOJ as an institution, make a mockery of what's left of the rule of law, and change politics as we have known it.

Ignominy.

@WarnerCrocker So, I guess being ethical has brought us down.
@Doreen32128 In a world where the other side plays without them, apparently so.
@WarnerCrocker @Doreen32128 A lesson not a single Western country will choose to learn I fear.
@Lazarou @Doreen32128 Not so sure. Perhaps we should learn lessons from Brazil (Bolsanaro) and France (Le Pen).
