When you lose Glen kirscher, your intentions are clearly not to indict.

1. Media Figure Whose Income Depends On Attracting Attention, Attracts Attention

Better headline.

4. If you read the piece, you'll see it was written by someone else

reading into what Kirschner said.

8. There is a video in the piece.... it is his own words....

[Effete Snob]

12. True

The way that most people tend to judge "experts" is on the "do they say what I want to hear" scale.

[agingdem]

7. Yup..

but please edit your headline to read Pompous Ass Media Figure...

and the same can be said of so many of the CNN and MSNBC pontificating go-to former prosecutors...

2. Does Kirschner have inside knowledge or just opinion/intuition?

If yr interested emptywheel has some good reporting on her blog about some of the stuff that’s going on.

3. Is Kirschner employed by the DOJ? If not, then he is just another speculator

[Peregrine Took]

11. He spent most of his career there but I think he has retired. n/t

[JohnSJ]

15. but he isn't there now.

5. Kirschner doesn't really have a connection with Garland,

I think. He's just another pundit out there with opinions, if I'm not mistaken. Besides, Kirschner didn't write that. I stopped going to KOS because of all the clickbait links there.

10. Kirschner had been a doj fan boy since garland was appointed...

He has steadfastly maintained that garland and the doj will follow the law and charge where the facts lead... until recently.

That is what is notable.

He no longer believes. I was the same way. It's a long process, you start from the bottom, blah/blah/blah. I was wrong. That is clear to me now.

6. I wonder how many here will happily defend 18 months just to get a warrant for Clark's phone...

...as some four-dimensional chess move that we outsiders dare not criticize.

13. ,

14. Props for strawman argument.

[Better Days Ahoy]

9. Props to Glenn Kirschner but ...

There is nothing clear about any part of this situation. I respect Glenn, yet he is not Garland's boss and doesn't work in the DOJ. Glenn is just one more pundit getying air and eyeball time treading water until real news breaks. So tiresome.

16. Garland is part of the don't rock the boat club

proving it everyday

he is a fitmaz
and a mueller

it's a club, but we are not in it.
