US Attorney General Merrick Garland on Wednesday testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee.
A defiant Garland stood by his letter labeling parents who protest CRT “domestic terrorists” even though the National School Board Association on Friday apologized for the letter.
A
Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) wasn’t having it and erupted on Merrick Garland for writing the threatening letter ‘citing news reports’ claiming parents were a danger to school board members.
The news reports were referring to Scott Smith, the father a teenage girl who was raped by a boy wearing a skirt in a girl’s bathroom on campus at a Loudoun County public school
Do you apologize to Scott Smith and his 15-year-old daughter, Judge?” Cotton asked Garland.
Merrick Garland refused to apologize so Cotton ripped into him.
Judge! This is shameful! This testimony. Your directive. Your performance is shameful! Thank God you are not on the Supreme Court. You should resign in disgrace, Judge!” Cotton said.

Full Exchange: Sen. Tom Cotton unleashes on Attorney General Merrick Garland
“If we are lucky, Garland’s daughter or granddaughter will get sexually assaulted by some creep wearing women’s clothes. Let’s see how Garland likes it.”
Don’t wish that on anyone.
Are any of the senators going to bust him for his conflict of interest (son-in-law’s company sells CRT materials to schools)?
Garland is arguably causing more damage as 1/1 AG than as a 1/9 member of the USSC. Still; as one of Biden’s prime collection of sociopaths heading up various departments, he’s definitely in the winners circle.
Hoping for his grandson.
I am sure one of the tougher GOP Senators will. Like Senator Ted Cruz who has been a tiger at some of these hearings
Garland will still not resign though as long as he continues to serve Dementia Joe and the far left.
This would be something if any of them had shame, but they don’t. These people are completely indifferent about the things they do affecting other people.
They’ve got power to attain and keep, and they’ll do anything, hurt anybody, to do whatever it takes to maintain the power they have.
Watch for new reports about Senator Cotton . . .
I still think they haven’t destroyed him, it should be rather easy.....
” . . . even though the National School Board Association on Friday apologized for the letter.”
From what I heard on the news last night, the White House *asked* the NSBA to send that letter - if that’s true, Garland and the administration are essentially using the school board association to launder their slanderous and incendiary views.
I’ve worn myself out spitting into the wind, most of us have. We are of a cut of cloth that believe it is possible to shame these cretins into doing something right or even to see the wrongness of what they do, because if we did what they do we would feel shame and want to make amends. To believe they are capable of shame or that they have honorable intent or feeling is our mistake.
They are evil, pathological liars and when confronted they deny, dodge, obfuscate, deflect, demur and can’t remember their own name. They do it with complete ease and conviction. It is natural for them and not to us. Such calm defiance is beyond our understanding and it frustrates us to the point of stumbling, even anger. We push on their wall and get no resistance. You can’t have an argument with someone who will not engage. There is no discussion of right or wrong, you and your arguments simply do not exist in their mind, you are vapor of no consequence and no threat.
Having an argument where you expect to prevail and receive contrition is like having an argument with a woman.
The sad part is that IF Garland had come up for a Supreme Court vote all these Republicans would have lined up to vote “yes” because “it is the right thing to do” -— go along to get along no matter the costs or ramifications. That’s how we got so far off track already!!! Republicans we elect need to represent us and quit trying to woo the lefties because the lefties just want to use then and abuse us to get farther down their road to marxism/socialism/communism.
Where do we get these ideological pigs?
Watching live on OAN. High drama!
After targeting parents at school board meetings with their hired guns, I’d suggest Garland upgrade his locks and security detail for his own safety.
Garland could be the decisive fifth in many, many 5-4 decisions over many years. Our tenuous grasp on representative democracy, and the Bill of Rights hangs in the balance.
I'm betting most of these so called 'threats' are liberals calling other liberals to PUSH THE PITY=PARTY NARRATIVE
Corrupt FBI THUGS needs to 'leak' to THEIR their butt boys in the press ALL OF THE RESULTS OF EVERY INVESTIGATION INTO 'THREATS'. 'Cause I'm guessing most of them are FAKE.
Better that Garland himself gets raped in prison - the day before he is hanged.

Honest to god, the above paragraph could easily describe several members of our HOA board.
