There’s a Russian expat YouTuber I found yesterday. He mentioned this very thing. In Russia, all police are federal and thus serve the state, in the US the police are local (yes, we do have some federal enforcers, but they are dwarfed by local police). It blew the guy’s mind that we actually have local police that have to respond to citizens and politicians at the local level. Conversely, it blew my mind that this isn’t necessarily the status quo.

All that is to say, the people on here that are saying “Biden do something!” May not understand that our president is not, and at least for the moment, cannot, be dictator in chief. And I for one am thankful for it.
