5. I agree with why Garland appointed Smith, because of politics.

I only have one question to ask, Garland wanted to show he wasn't being partisan to whom? If it was to Magats it didn't work, they still accused him and Smith of being partisan.

Isn't Garland's tenacity of showing he isn't partisan being partisan? Only members of one political party tried to overthrow our government.
