For my birthday, we get an FBI manhunt in the area! The interstate is shut down just a bit north of here. Apparently, a guy with a gun threatened the FBI office about 5 miles from me.
You wouldn't think he'd get out of there alive. I wonder if it has anything to do with the search.

That'll show those evil corrupt bastards!
I wonder what he thought he was communicating by waving a gun at the FBI. Oh well, he'll have 50 years in stir to contemplate that.

"Equal justice."
Apparently forging documents only causes a 1 year suspension of your law license and reinstatement in your job.
Principled leaders never apologize for or acknowledge unprincipled behavior within their organization. These are advanced theories of principled behavior that are probably beyond most, but you'll just have to trust those who are expert in principle to define the way in which principled people act.

Setting aside my suspicion that y'all were prepared to excoriate Garland no matter what he said, what could he have said that would have left you satisfied? What did you want him to say?
He made it clear that he wouldn't have said anything if left to his druthers. He wants his court filings to speak for the department. He was behind a microphone under protest and as a principled person, who needed to make public his defense of his unfairly maligned department. I don't think anybody expected him to say anything of substance, and he made clear that his intent is to never say anything of substance going forward, beyond public court filings.
