28 USC 509, 510, 515, & 533 all give the AG the authority to do what Garland did. The same statutes were used to justify the appointment of Durham as special counsel despite being US Attorney for Connecticut.

Even the slow kids know it's a farce.

He was appointed in 2018 by Donald Trump first to become a US Attorney, and then when the investigation into Hunter Biden was opened up he was appointed the lead investigator.
He has been the lead Hunter Biden investigator since the beginning. No one else has ever taken over the investigation.
He asked to now be appointed SC and he was.
Same guy for years now.
In 2021 when this administration took over, it is customary to ask the old attorneys to resign. David Weiss was asked to stay on and continue the Hunter Biden investigation, to avoid any semblance of impropriety.

You folks wanted a special counsel to investigate Hunter Biden, now its happening you are crying foul?
It is as if you will criticize regardless of what they do.
The cognitive dissonance is comical.

you should look into the plea deal Hunter had, that Weiss made. Even the slow kids know it's a farce. Keep up sparky.

Only the President has the authority to appoint US Attorneys.
