@jolly watching AG Garland yesterday was kind of interesting.

I posted the Cotton questioning. I understand Kennedy's was a bit lower key, but more effective.

Garland did not look very happy with certain questions.

An observation...Any federal department defines bureaucracy, in the worst way. Just as with Barr, I don't think Garland has complete control of his department.

And for some reason, too many people within Justice have turned into self-decided crusaders for whatever cause.

I think the department should be apoliticized and several individuals should be shown the door.

I trust you meant "apolitical." How you gonna de-politicize the DoJ?

It's all about corporate culture. It has to be re-emphasized within the department that Justice is blind, and laws should not be selectively enforced. Selective enforcement is just wrong.

It also has to be emphasized that broad direction will flow from the top and while regional durectors will have some autonomy, personal crusades will not be tolerated.

You can't take Presidential emphasis out of the equation, since Justice is part of the Executive Branch. But you should be able to tamp down the witch hunts, or places where the Feds have no business being in.
Federal agents have no business being at a local school board meeting.

They can close ranks all they want. This is an issue that leaves a majority of Americans absolutely pissed off.

If they want to get skewered, so be it.
