Not my fault Obama only appointed blacks to be attorney general, or that the attorney general are the only people who can prosecute civil rights violations. Presumably blm are demanding prosecutions. Obama, Holder, and Lynch are the only people with this power. Hillary's husband had this power, and O'Malley had this power to push prosecutions at the State level in Maryland.
