Allow me to be anal for a moment, but what is the point of doing “if I remember correctly” for something like this?

You can very easily look up exactly when Lina Khan was appointed and get answer very quickly. Is it not worth the effort checking these things before commenting?

Ok rant over. Sorry to be an asshole. This is not your fault as much a standard which should be changed.

I’m 100% with you on the spirit of this comment. I don’t understand it either. I fear the standard you mentioned has been set at far too low of a level.

She got nominated by Biden in Biden's last term in March of 2021 and left in 2025 two weeks after Trump assumed office.

She did not get appointed under Trump nor did substantial work done under his administration.

Edit: I do not necessarily disagree with your comment on the partisan aspects of this issue. This is only meant to respond to the first paragraph.

Using Lina Khan as an example (your only example?) undermines your point because she started upset Biden and was quickly fired after Trump 2 started.
