A rare moment of agreement today: Ted Lieu states that Merrick Garland "dropped the ball"

[BeyondGeography]

as did Bill Barr and Alex Acosta…”a whole string of failures”:

1. Ted Lieu is amazing, I think he should run for senate.

He'd be a great Senate Majority Leader and someone we need to fight back against MAGA and Fox.

[BeyondGeography]

2. He literally oozes integrity

And he is fearless.

3. It's the proverbial baseball that broke the town's irreplaceable church window

All the town's bad boys know who was in on it - and they're all scrambling like little gangsters to cover each other up (complete with omertà threats).

Just like the 2008 derivatives collapse.

4. Welp the peanut gallery here will be tossing him under the bus

5. I don't think Barr "dropped the ball""...

I think he "carried water"..

And I don't know whether Merrick was just incredibly inept......or whether he was playing for the other team as well..

6. Would be nice to know. "I barely knew him."

7. Lieu nails it again.

.Merrick the Meek sure and hell did drop the ball in several ways.
