Menu Around the Web Here's What a Walk-in Shower Should Cost West Shore Home SICK! Lawless AG Merrick Garland Lectures on Holocaust to Defend His Policies of Persecuting, Indicting and Imprisoning His Political Opponents (VIDEO) By Jim Hoft Sep. 20, 2023 10:30 am222 Comments TruthGettrGabTelegramShareTweet
This is one very evil little man. No wonder Barack Obama wanted him on the US Supreme Court!
After indicting the leading presidential candidate in America on bogus, manufactured, partisan charges Merrick Garland had the nerve on Wednesday to compare his ancestors fleeing Eastern Europe during the Holocaust to his lawless targeting, indicting and imprisoning of conservative Americans.
Here is an example of lawless Merrick Garland’s record of tyranny:
** Hired a political hitman to take out Donald Trump.
** Launched a Special Counsel to investigate President Trump’s handling of classified documents while he was working with the DOJ at the time.
** Ignored Joe Biden and Mike Pence’s likely criminal action of holding classified documents at the same time.
** Oversaw the mass abuse and harassment of thousands of conservative families who had their homes raided and children terrorized for attending the Jan. 6 rally in Washington DC.
** Lied about government involvement on Jan. 6.
** Refused to investigate Nancy Pelosi’s actions that caused the lapse in security that day.
** Indicted and sentences Pro-Life seniors for blocking entrance to an abortion clinic – a tactic regularly used by Democrat protesters.
** Targeted Catholics at their parishes.
** Targeted moms and dads at school board meetings.
** Jailed dozens of Trump supporters for years without trial.
** Infiltrated Proud Boys and Oath Keepers to make up criminal intent by the group leaders.

And every bit of it is happening with the express approval of our quisling speaker, Kevin McCarthy.
“U.S. CODE
TITLE 2—THE CONGRESS
CHAPTER 6—CONGRESSIONAL AND COMMITTEE PROCEDURE; INVESTIGATIONS
Sec. 193. Privilege of witnesses
No witness is privileged to refuse to testify to any fact, or to produce any paper, respecting which he shall be examined by either House of Congress, or by any joint committee established by a joint or concurrent resolution of the two Houses of Congress, or by any committee of either House, upon the ground that his testimony to such fact or his production of such paper may tend to disgrace him or otherwise render him infamous.”
Simply look up Hinds Precedents, especially chapters 53 and 51, and Cannon’s Precedents, especially chapters 184-185. You’ll find numerous detailed cases of Congress asserting its power, arresting people, holding them until they agreed to answer questions, and then releasing them. Some of these people did not refuse to appear, but simply failed to satisfactorily answer questions.
Congress has the authority to arrest and imprison those found in Contempt. The power extends throughout the United States and is an inherent power (does not depend upon legislated act)
If found in Contempt the person can be arrested under a warrant of the Speaker of the House of Representatives or President of the Senate, by the respective Sergeant at Arms.
Statutory criminal contempt is an alternative to inherent contempt.
Under the inherent contempt power Congress may imprison a person for a specific period of time or an indefinite period of time, except a person imprisoned by the House of Representatives may not be imprisoned beyond adjournment of a session of Congress.
Imprisonment may be coercive or punitive.

In 1857, a New York Times reporter refused to say which members of Congress had asked him to get them bribes (protecting his “sources” just as various Judith Millers today protect the people who feed them proven lies that costs thousands of lives), so Congress locked him up until he answered and then banned him from Congress.
In 1924 an oil executive appeared but refused to answer certain questions, so the Senate held — literally held — him in contempt. Senator Thomas Walsh of Montana argued that this question of contempt was of the gravest importance, and that it involved “the very life of the effective existence of the House of Representatives of the United States and of the Senate of the United States.” The matter was taken to court, and the witness fined and imprisoned.
Heard his touching tale about his grandmother. Also heard Garland argue and obfuscate when asked if he believed traditional Catholics are extremists.
You seem jealous!
Lmao!
Despite the above list, and more, he’ll never be impeached by the Republicans. Apparently there is no amount of malfeasance and no amount of evidence against him that would bring about impeachment. Same thing for Mayorkas.
Makes one wonder if there are any standards for behavior in office?
“The Justice Department was founded in the wake of the Civil War and in the midst of Reconstruction, with the first principal task of bringing to justice white supremacists...”
My family fled religious persecution in Eastern Europe at the start of the 20th century. My grandmother, who is one of five children born in what is now Belarus, made it to the United States, as did two of her siblings. The other two did not. Those two were killed in the Holocaust, and there is little doubt that.”
Essentially, he’s implying that J6ers, pro-Life people, etc., are “white supremacists” and to criticize or even question him about anything is “anti-Semitic”.
WHAT?? Is this a thread for Joe Biden?
Der kleine Führer is having flashbacks. His uncle would be so proud.
Go straight to hell, you nazi bastard!
“Essentially, he’s implying that J6ers, pro-Life people, etc., are “white supremacists” and to criticize or even question him about anything is “anti-Semitic”. “
Yup. Yer all NAZIs! So anything is justified against you.
He basically thinks the entire American nation should be herded into camps lest they do something that would upset the Protected Classes..which is comprised of the rest of the non-White planet.
That’s funny? Gassing Jews is funny to you? Garland is a Synagouge of Satan idiot, but so are you and the other poster.
Tell that to Jesus, THE JEW, when you get to the pearly gates. You secular Conservatives are becoming a plague on fr. Secular Conservatism is as useless as leftism.
Does he have dual citizenship with Israel?
Honest question, why does it seem that so many American Jews Hate America and Israel? What changed in the last 50 years?
Your comment was highly offensive. Left wing Jews hate the Messianic Jewsish faith.
Merrick Garland is a lot like George Soros, both Jews with NAZI leanings.
No, I don't know what.
What?
