I think I know why Garland's presser got a late start

Imagine how many times he had to rehearse that speech to make sure he could deliver it with straight face.

Seriously, I hope someone gets the story behind the decision to petition for release of the warrant. While I don’t doubt the rationale as indicated in the petition, part of me wonders if there wasn’t at least a little bit of an “aha moment” smile when they realized that Trump and his cult were out over their skis. Waiting 3 days for that to fully manifest itself was worth it.
