Remember when Merrick Garland was as sainted by the Left as Dr. Anthony Fauci is now? He was to be the next Supreme Court justice before “his” seat was stolen from him. Liberals were outraged that Garland was denied his rightful place on the Court.
President Joe Biden tried to make things right by naming Garland attorney general, but we’re happy to announce that Garland has been nothing but a huge disappointment to the Left; liberals are actually saying we dodged a bullet having him on the Supreme Court. He hasn’t done anything about the findings of the Mueller report, and he apparently is taking his sweet time with the January 6 investigation. It’s been a year, and on Wednesday, he’s going to give a generic speech about the investigation’s progress.
NEW: Attorney General Merrick Garland will update Americans on the Jan. 6 investigation and "reaffirm the department's unwavering commitment to defend Americans and American democracy from violence and threats of violence” in a speech on Wednesday, according to a DOJ official.

"While he will not speak to specific individuals or charges, the Attorney General will discuss the department's solemn duty to uphold the Constitution, follow the facts and the law, and pursue equal justice under law without fear or favor."

He won’t speak to specific individuals or charges? Why doesn’t he talk about all of the people charged with insurrection? Oh yeah …
Jennifer Rubin and her fellow liberals aren’t going to be happy unless Garland shows some initiative to get Donald Trump, who incited the mob and had the whole thing planned in advance.

If Garland talks only about the "attack" and not the entire coup it should be a flashing red light. Refusal to pursue the coup plotters and implementers is utterly unacceptable.

There are literally no coup plotters to pursue because it was a spontaneous event. I'm sorry that conflicts with your preferred alter-reality. https://t.co/FTGk5MX42X

The fishwife has turned her ire to Merrick Garland. Does this mean she divorced Joe Manchin? https://t.co/evy4ePXhK8

The fact that the "coup" is still a talking point is hilarious.
How come not *one* of the 600+ people arrested during J6 has been charged with attempted insurrection, plotting a coup, rebellion, treason, etc., etc., etc.

Don’t forget “parading.”
This is how uninformed the left is. They gobble up propaganda like a turkey sandwich. They never explore information because they're afraid of ANY contrary thought.

What coup?

There was no coup nor insurrection…period.

This was literally the worst coup attempt in the history of all coup attempts. They didn’t even bring weapons.

Are you going to demand to speak to the manager?

There seem to be three modes of thought in Rubin’s replies: 1) Don’t discount Garland until you’ve heard what he has to say, 2) Garland’s speech is going to be an enormous disappointment like the Mueller investigation was, and 2) Biden should fire Garland and give Sally Yates the position.
No one on the Left is going to be happy unless Garland announces he’s going after Trump and the members of Congress who objected to the certification of the electoral votes — something that sitting members of the January 6 special committee did themselves in 2021.
