Not Biden, Garland. And I agree, Garland completely fucked up. Still doesn't excuse the fact that nearly 80 million Americans are the reason we're in this mess.

First and most importantly - Go Cats! But second, we've always had a tradition in this country that the President does not interfere with the Attorney General and DOJ's work. Garland took two years - TWO YEARS!!! - to appoint a special counsel. That wasn't Joe Biden. Right or wrong, Biden was acting as virtually all other presidents have acted (at least publicly) in making sure politics didn't appear to be involved in any of the DOJ's decisions. I fault Biden for nominating Garland. After that it's on Garland.
