As European, I read: US-President can do whatever he wants, no questions asked. We had this here (in multiple countrzes), we know how this works. So, when will Biden get rid of those Suprime Judges or even Trump himself? There is no risk...

If you're actually reading this, I can tell you what that means: You're a pawn, Mr Secretary. That you're even entertaining the idea that it's worth mentioning that these people act immoral or hypocritical is part of why they're doing it. They're making fun of you for believing that rules matter.

Democrats get indignant but don't use the power they have to act. How is it my obligation to fix this mess if Democrats elected & drawing paychecks can't be bothered.
