I woke up this morning cursing Merrick Garland to hell. I want him to suffer for what he did to this country.
Just more impotent rage to add to the heap, I guess.
NONE of this had to happen.

The swamp didnt want Trump chsrged because the swamp is also involved
-
I agree more than you might think possible. However, we can try to achieve things if we organize. My latest brain fart:
-
I don’t get why so many people seem to give Biden a free ride on this. Only one person had the power to replace Garland when it was clear he had no interest in protecting our country. Blame Biden, too.
-
I hate Mitch McConnell more!
-
And exactly why he is in hiding and still doesn’t utter a word about his failure.
-
I share your feelings. This is also on President Biden and VP Harris. They stood idly by
-
I feel the rage
-
I curse Garland for being a fucking coward for not appointing Jack Smith to go after Trump on day one as AG. I curse Biden for appointing him. I curse McConnell for giving Biden what he thought was a reason to appoint him. All of them can just fuck right off for what they did to the world.
-
Things happened that I guess were supposed to happen. Asking why people did what they did is useless. Can’t change the past, but we can change the future.
I feel the tide is changing. -
None of this has to happen. It's the politicians, it's the media, it's the electorate, it's the judiciary, it's the oligarchy.
-
“Impotent rage” is a perfect description of what I experience on a daily basis
-
Agree. Worthless, chicken shit asshole.
-
Anyone born after 1970 feels the same. Institutionalists can suck it!
-
He had company. Looking at you, Comey.

7/31/25: OMG. “Ex-CIA whistleblower confirms that a 2024 audit was done, and it confirmed. She won. Buy a lot.”

Biden chose him.
-
I do understand Pam
Joe had 1 recourse considering how long Garland took to appoint Smith
And that was too ask for the AGS resignation and replace them with someone more suitable
This would have screamed of cronyism, and everyone would have believed the witch hunt then
Again, I understand
-
Save a little bit of that disappointment for Obama and Biden, who both championed this ridiculously useless man.
-
John Roberts is my specter.
-
Garland lied to my mother’s face when she told him to do his job and he said he would. Of course, he may have been a Trump plant and was doing his job.
-
100% on the nose!!! I’ve been saying this forever, it was Garland who sat back and refused to do his job in fear of the Felon’s wrath. Complacency has its consequences & now Amerikkka will pay dearly because someone wanted to be a nice guy…fuck that nonsense, nice guys finish last.
-
Joe Biden also. He knows every name on the Epstein list and still stays silent. He knows every top secret Trump sold and he still stays silent. Remember that after he lost to Trump he went silent except for the time he invited Trump into the White house for a very private meeting.
-
Moscow Mitch too.
-
Merick f’n garland
-
Exactly what I’m thinking too!!! 🤬🤬🤬
-
Merrick Garland voted 77 million times for Trump?
-
He was a F&#*@ Federalist plant, he was meant to keep Miller's puppet out of prison so Miller could return to power using him as a proxy
-
Compare Brazil and south koreas response to wanna be dictators to ours. No one can say garland and Biden are innocent. They neglected their duty.
-
I agree and I'm furious.
-
100% right there with you!
-
Where is he?
-
Yes. President Biden was elected into a steaming mess from the felon. He promised to restore the soul and make the US a world leader again. He did that. Everyone was lifted up and the economy surged. It was Garland’s job and duty to bring justice - he failed. He blundered. He caved to his GOP roots
-
I wonder if he's in hiding. If not, he might want to consider it
-
Let’s just start and end with Mitch McConnell. He blocked Garlands nomination to the Supreme Court where Garland might have been better suited. And McConnell tanked Trumps impeachment after the coup!
-
You were one of the fringe people on Twitter who was calling this shit out every step of the way. That fringe group was regularly dismissed by legal "experts" who refused to acknowledge how their beloved system was crumbling. They were blinded by their own egos and here we are. The fringe was right.
-
And we have to give Biden a little bit of blame for being naive (or complicit) about the possibility of bipartisanship AFTER the rise of MAGA and Upside Down World.
-
He was overly careful not to break any norms!! Tell me again how that worked out. Tx adding 5 Congressional seats. We sit back and shame them.
-
Impotent rage at the impotence of the Attorney General under President Biden, seems appropriate to me.
-
The fact that he didn’t treat MAGA as a viable threat really drove me crazy. This is the whole, “The South will rise again.” bs actually happening. They should have taken that treason seriously.
-
I tweeted him every day, when I was still on X. I begged every day for him to do something. He had nerve getting in his muscle when people kept asking where were the charges, as he did nothing. I will never forgive him. Now we beg the GOP to do their jobs on deaf ears. Fuck.
-
I despise the man. His endless hesitations and failure to act on behalf of the country will always be a stain on his character. I think he’ll be treated badly when history books are written.
-
The guy with the sickle needs to visit a few folks and soon!!! Very soon!!
-
Ask ... Why has that bloviating shit bag Trump never mentioned Garland?
-
It’s really sad to me to see America in the state and I feel my anger is part of the five steps of grieving.
But I know that once I get through this I’ll be able to look at the situation more clearly.
-
I agree
-
Why not be CC mad at the republicans who failed to convict when impeached twice! Enough blame to go around.
-
Sarah Kendzior warned us all about him.
-
Where is he?
-
Maybe, just maybe, direct your anger at the people who are actually destroying the country, instead of engaging in these circular firing squads and thereby ensuring that this regime remains in power.
-
2020- 2024 will be known as the time when the government did nothing to the biggest domestic threat to ever face a nation.
-
Kind of makes you wonder what kind of a Supreme Court Justice he would have been.
-
So much blame to pass around, from Biden to Garland. I wasn’t happy when Biden nominated Garland as we needed strength in that position. We got a Mr Rodgers when we needed a Rambo. When the sketchy election results came in, we needed recounts, but nope. Dems need fight, not old school nice.
-
I guess Dems have to weaponize the government now.
-
Agree. But Biden left him in office.
-
I agree.
-
Can't tell you how often I curse that man....incompetent loser
-
The objectives are clear. Obstruct the Trump regime as much as possible and slow them down. Get everyone out to vote for the mid-terms. Prioritise ordinary people over the rich and big corporations. Get a decent candidate that understands peoples needs for the presidential election.
-
I won’t go that far, but I am more than frustrated I bought into his “without fear or favor” rhetoric. 😡
-
Is it only Merrick Garland's fault. I want to believe he was being methodical, going by the book and developing iron clad cases. He/they appointed a special prosecutor to carry out the investigation in Jack Smith, a Republican, to be "unbiased." Things were inhibited by judge Cannon, right?
-
I would assign more blame to McConnell for fixing the Supreme Court's political composition.
-
Nooo. Fuck. It wasn’t him! The mfer was impeached not once but twice & fuck face McConnell didn’t let Republicans convict him.
-
He had a boss.
-
you are correct....for your mental health....
-
The Federalist Society is who and where to direct this anger. They need their brand placed at each failing moment of the regime in office. HERITAGE is the goofy field team.
-
I do it every morning. For four years we helplessly watched someone intent on destroying the country crawl his way back into relevance because of the fecklessness and incompetence of Biden and his AG.
-
I am with you on that!
-
I agree. As I have said before, Mitch McConnell blocking Merrick Garland from a seat on the Supreme Court may have been the smartest decision of his political career.
-
I’m with you on Garland. WTF was he thinking keeping this all under wraps. He should be ashamed. A true tragedy of incalculable stupidity.
-
Agreed, I read the first few comments before I posted this. It's the same peeps saying" heritage foundation and Biden".Now I am a multi tasker so I can blame a lot of people all at once. I just wish silly peeps would stop trying to give cover to garland. Garland FAILED.Thats where the prime blame is
-
Why isn’t Trump going after Garland? Because he saved his ass and the asses of the Repubs who were complicit in the 1/6 insurrection.
-
I get that anger. It’s painful to watch justice stall when so much is on the line. We need accountability, not excuses.
-
Just as he was the entire time he served as AG, he remains silent & well hidden. But Mitch had the opportunity to prevent this as well. He & just a few more Rs could've voted guilty in his 2nd impeachment & prevented him from running for any public office ever again. It would've shut him down
-
He was weak and while I love Biden we needed aggressive proactive competent professionals to deal with this.
-
I feel you
-
2000 installment of GWB by an #ExtremeCourt and not the American people is when Democracy had ended..
-
And RBG, who should have retired
-
Do you think Garland actually knew what he was doing and the consequences and just didn’t care?
-
I agree with you 120%
pam blondie can move mountains in half a day
Garland couldn’t wipe his own arse.
Thanks, Joe and the DNC elite
-
Ikr
-
My God he was weak, impotent, & ineffectual a total dud
-
I argued with you about this a few times on Xitter - in fact, I think you ended up blocking me over it.
Now, I have to admit that you were right. Garland wasn’t biding his time or being strategic. He was a feckless idiot.
-
Most worthless AG ever...
Followed by the most corrupt now...
-
I was thinking the same thing a few days ago. The delays and the cowardice he displayed when this could have been OVER after January6. Throw McConnell on the same pile of poop. SHAME ON THEM!
-
Maybe his and/or his family's life was threatened. Maybe a bunch of thugs threw a smelly hood over his head, drove him to a dank warehouse, and threatened to do unspeakable things to his grandchildren.
If you think that scenario is a strech, look at what ICE is openly doing to people.
-
"Make yourself interesting. Get a hobby, like stand up comedy" Jim Jefferies referring to the INCEL problem.
-
In the moment, I understood the need to make sure the case was slow and AIRTIGHT. No chance of appeal or reverse, even by the Supreme Court.
...Two years in, I realized the bent bastard wasn't being careful. He was hoping it would just go away.
-
Garland was in on the coup.
-
I wish nothing but the worst to Merrick Garland.
-
YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY 100% CORRECT
-
The problem with Democrats is they try to follow rules when the other guys are willing to break whatever rules they must to win.
-
Thank you !!! I'm not alone in my rage and it feels good. 👊
-
i would hope garland will be formally charged for his dereliction of duty
-
I think it started with amnesty for the Confederates during and after the civil war....
-
The whole culture and frame of reference that elevated him going back to Obama and transiting to Biden…emblematic of the Democratic Party has been lethal to America and the planet. It was literally bringing a butter knife to a gunfight.
-
His place in history has been set already as the man who did absolutely nothing when he could, to keep the Constitutional republic intact.
-
And the fact that the con never even mentioned his name shows us, he was on his team the whole time. No coincidence. No mistake. No misunderstanding. No misestimation.
-
-
Agreed 💯
-
Blame Biden. Biden was POTUS and he instructed Garland's actions. The buck stopped with Biden and locking up Trump should have happened as soon as Trump landed back in Florida.
-
💯
-
Let's not forget this prick:
-
SCOTUS would have just blocked the prosecutions sooner rather than later. Wouldn’t have made an ounce of difference.
-
💯💯💯💯💯
-
Feckless Merrick ruined it for us all.
-
I join you!
-
-
🤬
Here's something simple we can all do to make a difference! Take a look, send an email, and SHARE with everyone you know. Let's at LEAST make it uncomfortable to cover for convicted pedophiles. mdavis19881.substack.com/p/heres-how-...
Here's How We Can Fight Back Against Trump Helping Sex-Trafficker Maxwell
Let's overwhelm the man at the head of the Federal Bureau of Prisons.
-
How about Bill Barr, Mitch McConnell, and John Roberts. Garland did not stand a chance to get past John Roberts.
-
Hmmm..I'll add you a Mitch McConnell and raise you a John Roberts..
-
It’s his fault for sure
-
Let’s not forget fucking Moscow Mitch, he could’ve fucking had him fucking convicted in the Senate too
-
and the Democrats who he rode in on.
-
Unpopular opinion-may get me blocked, but here goes: Blaming Garland for Trump success only obscures the courage & integrity of a man, who saw as his mission restoring the independence of DOJ to shore up Democracy. Early Prosecution of Trump would’ve been voided by SCOTUS-further emboldening Trump.
-
It’s a sad story for Americans
-
Truth. Asleep at the wheel.
-
With you on that one!
-
Heap is right. There were numerous stops along the way where many had a chance to act but failed. So, here we are.
Plenty of blame to go around. Including my own. I simply could’ve spoken more to others about politics and possibly changed a mind or two. But I didn’t. 😕
-
Naturally, the man who Garland appointed to investigate Trump is now a target of right-wing ire, while Garland himself is . . . not.
-
FYI: The Garden Gnome served at Joe Biden's pleasure, he could have asked for his resignation at any time. Who am I kidding? The guy who let Ukraine twist in the wind.
-
Garland and Comey can shove their righteousness where the sun doesn’t shine 🤬🤬🤬
-
I don't blame Garland as much as I blame Biden. Him saying he wanted to stay above the fray while Garland did nothing for 3 years and is inexcusable.
-
He should have gone after Trump guns ablazing. Waiting for Jack Smith to finish up at The Hague was epic asininity!!!!
-
Don’t leave out Larry Summers. He advised against making the relief package of 2009 start with a T. Therefore it wasn’t big enough and the economy didn’t fully recover until 2017.
-
You forget what Mitch McConnell did to Merrick Garland.
If things were different, they wouldn't be the same.
The Garland Affair: What History and the Constitution Really Say About President Obama's Powers to Appoint a Replacement for Justice Scalia - NYU Law Review
After Justice Antonin Scalia’s death, politicians wasted no time before teeing up a political battle over his replacement. Republican Senators—led by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell—immediately...
-
This. 💯
-
R Senate failed to remove him after he was impeached. That's where it started and they haven't quit kissing his a$$ since!
-
Correct! A simple slam dunk contempt of court trial. 10-20 days for hiding the files stolen from the government. Not sure if McConnell’s vote of not impeaching Trump will go down worse than this but both are culpable,
-
I blame John Roberts more than Merrick Garland.
-
I don't disagree, but Garland had a boss, and he sat on his hands for 4 years. So much could have been done
-
Agreed. All of which makes/made me wonder whose pocket he was in. Or what damaging info was held over his head.
-
Keep adding to the heap so we can have a bigger bonfire when it's time.
-
💯
-
Save some of that heat for Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
If she had retired at the beginning of Obama’s second term, like she was asked to? Our right to choose might still exist.
-
We had FOUR years. Four years to do something to keep Trump and Project 2025 from destroying democracy. We did nothing.
-
You're mad at the wrong people
-
I agree with you.
-
Lack of consequences to those who harm others is arguably the most underlying cause of this crisis.
-
Blame Garland and also blame the GOP Senators. These folks had two glorious chances to remove Trump, but because they crave power so badly in the Republican Party, the Senators gave him a pass. Twice.
-
Yes, it did. Democrat supporters MUST understand what is going on and STOP enabling them.
-
I'd really like to hear what his story is. No journalist has followed up on him or dug into his finances and past. Something is not right with him.
-
IMHO I honestly don’t think Garland was corrupt or incompetent. The mistake, if you can call it that, was going to extremes to demonstrate no bias or weaponisation in the DOJ. He was determined to play strictly by the rules. He listened to judges!
Congress should have convicted upon impeachment!
-
-
Amen sister.
-
I get it 😩😳😤🙃🥲
-
The fucker was getting free money.
-
Yeah, because Republican voters have no responsibility for what they have done to this country, one man only, Merrick Garland, over threw our democracy. Not the Supreme Court, not Trump, not your Republican neighbors, co- workers, relatives- just Garland. Again, who elected Trump in 2016?
-
RBG should have resigned when Obama asked her too. She was thinking she could make it or Hilary would win I guess 🤔. Now we are paying for bad decisions on more ppl than Merrick Garland!
-
Merrick Garland was the greased wheel of trump’s return. Worst attorney general in history. Spineless and impotent. Sad waste of time that cost us our democracy.
-
What he failed to do for this country.
-
He also covered for TX AG Paxton. After 7 Deputy AG whistle-blowers busted him, the FBI did NOTHING. The impeachment trial PROVED his guilt. Garland refused to investigate. Now TX GOP is a criminal syndicate. They must cover up R wrongdoing.
-
I'm with ya
-
I legit wonder if Garland has any regrets or if somehow behind that weird little smug but clueless smirk he knows he utterly screwed up and probably more than any single person failed to meet the moment.
-
Impotent rage is right
-
Absolutely
-
I understand how you feel because I think more should’ve been done but then I think of the gigantic huge pile of shit he had to fix while he was there everything coming at him! My rant is that the Supreme Court said that Joe Biden could have used seal team six!
-
Obama could have stopped djRump in his tracks. ..the dope.
-
There were so many points of failure along the timeline. Garland was a big one but he's just a point.
-
Is criticizing Biden for the Garland appointment off the table?because for all the wonderful things he did for the American people, he wiped them out before most of them could even get started with this pick (trying to reach across the aisle)Sheesh!!!
-
Add Bill Barr to the list
-
I wonder if A.G. Sulzberger will be surprised when he winds up in the Bad Place.
-
No VOTERS that voted for a 34 count criminal felon that was impeached twice, found liable for rape and $350 mil in fraud, stole top secret docs and started an insurrection…so no be mad at those folks that voted for this!!!🤔
-
-
💯
-
I’ve been saying for several months now that Merrick Garland needs to be investigated with a deep dive into his financials as well as his electronic records. He deliberately did nothing. Is he on the list? What does Russia have on him?
-
🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯. I was saying this yesterday!! Garland … 🤬🤬🤬🤬
-
I think there was an extreme failure to meet the moment. Our big mistake was we constrained ourselves with the rules & norms while Republicans were fuck the rules & norms, fuck the law & fuck you. Also the only people who paid the price for the coup were the little people. Enormous mistake.
-
It was a near miracle getting him out of office in 2020. They immediately needed to prosecute him for his crimes to keep him from getting back in. But pretty much everyone dropped the ball. Now here we are….
-
i used to hope that he was going to have turned out to have been working on an airtight case and that's why it took so long. I'm sorry, i figured out Santa when i was 7, i should have known. i just so badly didn't want all this. i couldn't believe they were really going to let it happen. they did.
-
When I was still on that rotten bird I oft said Garland was capitulating to the felon. "Be patient" they said. "He's gathering evidence for a bombshell report" they said. "He'll do the right thing" they said. "Bullshyte" I said, and I was right.
-
And James comey, and all the true republicans who quit rather than capitulate and now all the large corporations who have also capitulated 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
-
😪 yes, Trump should sit in jail
-
How did you ever get through a law degree?
-
Kamala in her interview with Colbert said she sees now that the system is broken and it wasn't strong enough to withstand what is happening. It is clear that even those in the thick of it couldn't imagine what happened. We can only wonder why their faith was so misplaced.
-
I waited four years for Garland to make me eat my words. Not happy that I was right. Merrick Garland did nothing to not appear political but, by not acting, he was political! I’ve got a list too and Garland and McConnell are tied for first!
-
He was working behind the scenes
Remember that one from the Biden apologists?
-
I agree!!! The fact that he did not pursue EVERYTHING immediately was bullshit.
-
There were countless opportunities to nip this shit in the bud, every step of the way Trump + MAGA were given a wide berth, second chances, the benefit of the doubt, etc. The media and the entire political apparatus refused to let him fall on his face. Every sign of weakness met with a shrug.
-
Every morning for me
-
Impotent rage is exactly the right way to describe how I'm feeling, too.
If I was going to add anything, it would be "overwhelming."
Overwhelming impotent rage.
-
You said we should move on from Epstein, so I guess I should just say…move on from Garland? 🤷
-
Let’s not forget what John Roberts did as well.
-
Amen
-
It really didn't. The voters let the Trojan horse through the gates🤡🤡🤡🤡
-
The orange voters are to blame as well as the other voters and especially the ones who sat out.
-
There’s a long list of folks guilty of surrendering power, allowing Trump to destroy the rule of law.
SCOTUS, Barr, Johnson, McConnell, McCarthy, Cruz, Graham, Gaetz, MTG, Howley, Boebert, All Congress Rs, Musk, Zuckerberg, Bezos, Manchin, Sinema, & “saviors” Garland & Mueller who destroyed hope.
-
Evil triumphs when good men do nothing.
-
The Supreme Court was never going to allow Trump to be tried. It doesn’t matter that Garland took two years to appoint a special counsel.
-
Somebody explain to me how neoliberal Dems are materially different from Reps. They are the accomplices. Both parties have been rolling back the New Deal for the last 50 years.
-
Garland, Bill Barr, James Comey....plenty of cursing to go around. We didn't have to wind up here.
-
Him and Barr are buddies, so… buddies look out for each other, like trump is doing for Jizzlane Maxwell.
