Attorney General Merrick Garland rejected the House of Representatives vote to hold him in contempt of Congress for refusing to let them view the video of President Biden's interview by Special Counsel Robert Hur. "The issue of whether President Biden is guilty of mishandling classified documents has already been resolved by the dismissal of all possible charges on the grounds of prosecutorial discretion," Garland insisted. "There is, therefore, no need for Congress to see the video."
Rep. Gary Palmer (R-Ala) said "the issue goes beyond whether the President should be prosecuted for mishandling classified documents. If, as Hur said, Biden couldn't be convicted because a jury would see him as an old man with a poor memory, a question arises as to whether he is competent to carry out the duties of the presidency. The withheld video is the best evidence for answering this question. Garland has no authority to withhold this evidence."
Garland said "Palmer's suggestion that the President might be unfit is a direct attack on our democracy. President Biden was elected by the voters to serve a four year term. Republican efforts aimed at undermining this term amount to an insurrection or coup d'état. They will be the ones facing possible prison or execution after the President is reelected in November."

Just imagine a jury trial with Biden being cross examined. I would watch that.
Oh no! Hope he learns his lesson. 😂😂😂😂😂
Our legal system in action. Meanwhile Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro go to prison. Eric Holder didn't.
