(35,155 posts)outcry from his peers, the public, and Congress and still refuses to act. Biden needs to appoint someone who has the strength and integrity to defend this nation from all threats, including and especially the white domestic terrorist threat that is growing larger by the day.
I'm not sure if it was your intention, but your post seems kind of condescending and almost making a mockery of a serious situation. Our country was attacked. The lack of serious consequences for the perpetrators weakens our country on multiple levels. First, it makes it a lot more likely that it will happen again and the next time it will probably succeed. Second, there's a clear racial component as well. Had this been carried out by anyone of color or of the Muslim faith, I assure you, there would not have been any hesitation whatsoever in bringing every last person involved to Justice.
Merrick seems like a nice guy, but at this point he has lost the confidence of a lot of people. Not just with the way he's handled the terrorist attack, but the way he's handling the qOP voter suppression/ election nullification laws that are springing up around the country. He should step down and enjoy his life, maybe play some golf. Honestly, I wouldn't even want to take the chance of appointing him to the Supreme Court again.
