Probably because we elected the Dems to do something and they put their top man, Merrick Garland, on it and he did jack shit for two years. Biden also knew the court was fucked and refused to do anything about that. Also he did nothing to differentiate himself from the fasc and actively did a genocide and border fascism. Then he refused to give up power and handed his campaign over to a person who refused to distance herself from him.

So, yes, the useless neoliberals have doomed us to climate catastrophe and have enabled fascism by refusing to give up on their failed ideology. This is a global phenomenon that could have been prevented by helping normal people with their problems instead of tinkering around the edges.

Merrick Garland is a member of the heritage foundation and giving him the AG was putting a conservative in charge of prosecuting conversatives. The most important part of Biden's presidency was prosecuting Trump and he chose a fucking Republican for the job.

Democrats always do this. They're always 'looking forward, not back', and that meant that Nixon, Reagan, Bush Jr and Trump all got away with various crimes, and so did the minions that worked for all of them (like Roger Stone).

Democrats were falling under themselves saying 'in this country we don't prosecute our political opponents', followed through with that promise, and now Trump is prosecuting them.

It's not like they didn't know what was coming - Biden preemptively pardoned his son in anticipation of this.

But fuck the rest of us.
