The assessment appalled Rep. Mike Garcia, the California Republican who prodded Mr. Garland to grade himself and who said as the Biden administration’s head law enforcement official, he should have been much harsher. “I’m going to give myself an ‘A,’ but with room for improvement,” Mr. Garland said, flashing a bit of a smile for lawmakers on the House Appropriations Committee.He pointed to the chaos at the border and the massive death toll of fentanyl overdoses as evidence Mr. Garland is failing.
“Your giving yourself an A under these circumstances demonstrates a lack of self-awareness,” the lawmaker said.Do you have faith that former President Trump can get a fair and impartial jury in his New York case?
