I think Merrick Garland has been extremely weak. And I think there should be a lot more of the organizers of January 6 that should be arrested by now. The problem that we have right now is that we have a very obstructionist Republican Party that should be part of helping us decide how to save democracy, instead of trying to cover up for their crimes. And you have, again, an attorney general who is feckless and has not been helpful in terms of preserving our democracy.
