CORRUPTION, CORRUPTION, CORRUPTION

[BrucePhung]

A disgraced AG in history. A spineless cowards.

[sashasabbeth]

The system did fail because of Garland.

[ryanjohnson]

Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

[cleenlivin]

Thank goodness he didn’t get appointed to the US Supreme Court.

[stoney]

His well-deserved legacy will be as the weakest AG in American history

[JamesAlfano-oz]

He is rotten to the core a complete phoney

[conniekellum]

Thank god this man is gone should be in jail.

[danielmichaelconnolly]

He needs to be investigated for treason.

[GreggsOverEZ]

And to think he was almost on the Supreme Court..

[joshuastavos]

We need a monument for those who died from gain of function.

[jamesgeorge]

He had the spine of a jellyfish, and was a fickle wimp.

[thomasmills]

GARLAND - WEAK and HESITANT and OUT IF HIS DEPTH. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

[pdmacguire]

He needs to be held accountable for his crimes.

[silverfrost]

The man who did the most to give trump another four years, without trying.

[EarlConley]

well, from what I've seen in your actions as the DOJ I don't think you were a good leader for the department of justice.

[christyritter]

No AG has done more for trump than Merrick Garland. He should just keep him. 🙄

[MarkDillard-tf]

Darn, i missed his farewell speach. I thought he was in jail already. What, he is not in jail. He should be.

[larrygant]

My advice for Garland is, "Lawyer up buttercup"! The incoming AG should have a bucket full of charges for your lawfare used against a political rival.

Good riddance to the guy who wrung his hands for three years. He and Bob Muller heard history calling and let it go to voicemail.
