My understanding is that because of Garlands refusal to act on trumps lawsuit against the DOJ we taxpayers will now be giving 230 million dollars to trump since his DOJ certainly wont fight against him.
President Biden will be proven to be a great president, but his decision to stay with Garland will be one of his greatest mistakes.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
