GOP senator: Nominate Merrick Garland as next FBI director
By Jordain Carney - 05/11/17 10:15 AM EDT

Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) floated on Thursday that President Trump should nominate Merrick Garland, former President Obama's Supreme Court nominee, to be the next FBI director.

"Instead of a special prosecutor, @realDonaldTrump should nominate Merrick Garland to replace James Comey," Lee wrote on Twitter Thursday morning.

What an idiot.  Congress is full of nothing but idiots, on both sides.

Lee makes sense on this.

Lee wouldn't vote for Garland as a judge but seems to think this is much more in Garland's wheelhouse.
