President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris hold press conference | USA TODAY

US President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris announce key nominees for the Department of Justice.

President-elect Joe Biden will nominate federal appeals court Judge Merrick Garland to serve as attorney general, the nation's chief law enforcement officer, two sources familiar with the decision said.

Garland's nomination will come as Biden seeks to turn the page on a tumultuous period at the Justice Department marred by allegations of politicization under the Trump administration. By choosing Garland, who has spent the last two decades on the federal appeals court and has built a reputation as a moderate, Biden appears to be aiming to create a department free from political influence.

    3. @Samantha 78 Iโ€™m a stock analyst but not functioning so I focus more on crypto currencies investment online from home. Itโ€™s very productive and less time consuming. What work do you do ??

    1. @Keely also in English you don’t name call someone just because you are trying to make a point.
      And Also his name is joe Biden not sleepy joe thank you and stop trying be smart about it, we know who you are. Talk about what trump is doing right now, not the other way round. Because we are still in Donald Trump’s America not Biden’s America thank you

  2. What we witnessed yesterday were corrupt politicians who are almost all multi-millionaires cowering in their chamber as unarmed people were shot outside. They are only alive because they have successfully divided and distracted the American People.

    1. I would also include trump in the group of cowering multi- millionaires. He clearly stated he would protest with the rioters yet he was no where to be seen๐Ÿ‘€

  3. Poor viewership on channels where Biden and Harris are shown. Channels featuring President Trump are getting not less than 500k views!
