No one keeps records on such things, but Merrick Garland is certainly a contender for greatest disparity between the praise lavished on him as a level-headed, by-the-books moderate for years and his hackishly partisan conduct once in office.

The latest example is the Hunter Biden plea deal that blew up because it was so favorable, so irregular, and so damaging to the supposed investigation of Biden’s business dealings, which appears to be ongoing only so the DOJ can say there’s an ongoing investigation.
