While she was recovering from the birth of her first child and unable to vote, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna learned of an obscure House procedure that could see Attorney General Merrick Garland arrested.
Frustrated that the DOJ hasn't acted on the House holding Garland in criminal contempt earlier this month, she will force a vote on an 'inherent contempt resolution' this week.
The criminal contempt resolution referred Garland to his own Justice Department for criminal charges after he refused to hand over the audio of Biden's special counsel interview.
But the DOJ quickly announced it will not act on the prosecution recommendation.
If Luna's resolution is passed, it could force Garland to stand trial before the House, and if found guilty, he would be detained by the House Sergeant-at-Arms.
Inherent contempt which was last used in 1934 on Washington Lawyer William MacCracken, who spent 10 days in prison for refusing to comply with a Senate subpoena.
'I was told I couldn't vote when I was recovering from having my son ... what I found is a lot of members were unaware that it actually existed. And so I met the parliamentarian because I did not have faith in the DOJ.'
Luna was the only member this Congress to have a child while in office.
'Garland is currently running cover — at the risk of making himself essentially a criminal via Biden — for Biden's objective to stay in office at all costs, even though it's very evident that they're hiding something from the American people,' she told DailyMail.com in an interview.
House Republicans had issued two subpoenas for audio recordings of Biden's interview with special counsel Robert Hur about his mishandling of classified documents and his interviews with ghost writer Mark Zwonitzer.
The DOJ claimed it had been overly accommodating...

You get it.
They only hire ‘yes men’. These are hardcore Marxists, and there’s no limit to their dedication to corruption.
It’s power, at all costs.
The Republicans treat them like they are honorable adversaries. They’re not.
Luna will find out that 50% of her so called GOPee Colleagues in the House are cowards, and the other 50% belong to the Uni-Party, and all but a few will vote against the resolution. Welcome Mrs. Luna to the “gutless world” of the GOPee.
Well, actually it started in the early part of the 20th century when the CPUSA infiltrated the U.S. colleges and universities (particularly Columbia) and started spreading their message in black churches (which were already boiling over with hatred for the U.S. and white people).
Obama was a red diaper baby of his momma and the commies in the Ford Foundation and, later, Frank Marshall Davis (his mentor).
Our side is not made up of cowards.
Our side is made up of traitors.
Time to call a spade a spade.
And yet, come November, the traitors will be overwhelmingly re-elected.
Rinse, spit, repeat
Clearly these people believe they are exempt from answering to we the people. It is contempt. Clear contempt.
I can’t believe for a moment that there aren’t laws on the books that can be used to punish for this, and make an example out of.
Unless that happens it’ll just be more of the same.
The ‘long established’ etiquette, NOT LAW to my understanding, to not disclose information related to a case ‘under investigation’ has become an umbrella to have autonomy and not be accountable. Just launch an ‘investigation’ on everything you don’t want to discuss.
There is a special place in hell for Garland... Should he be detained by the House Sergeant-at-Arms, that Hell is the J6 Dungeon. I hear it takes over two years to get a trail down there and no medical care either. Hum. Sounds like he is gonna need some of Biden’s diapers when this happens.
“The reason the GOP is weak and spineless is because its enemy is incredibly powerful.”
The big, brave federal Rambos ran away from Bundy Ranch when confronted by men with rifles.
AND-—THEY SHOT A VALUABLE BREEDING BULL INSIDE A CORRAL THAT WAS DOING NOTHING WRONG.
Oh the smirk on that ugly mans face. Sickens any sane person.

So what you are saying is the enemy is big and mean and will ruin lives. Yes and they will until they are stopped.
It requires courage and a willingness to sacrifice yourself for a greater good. Too bad there are only a small handful of people in the GOP willing. Too bad the Republican electorate keeps voting for corrupt Rinos who quickly join forces with the Uni Party. Where are the calls to drum Paul Ryan out of the GOP, hold him accountable for his part in Steel? Where are the calls to get Garland arrested or get Navarro and Bannon both free and clear? Where was every GOP member of both the House and Senate when lawfare was not just used to destroy Trump but shred the Constitution that is supposed to protect all of us? Where were they? The justice system in this country is done and overwith. They can come for any of us next. So what is there left to lose?
I used to believe it was just money and power, the usual corruption. Now I’m starting to think even less of these politicians. Gutless, corrupt money grubbing slugs on the face of the earth. And that is my opinion.
The House Judiciary Committee on Monday sued Attorney General Merrick Garland in order to obtain the audio tapes of special counsel Robert Hur’s interview of President Joe Biden related to his handling of classified documents after exiting the vice presidency.
The civil action lawsuit filed Monday in federal court in Washington requests, among other things, an injunction to order Garland “to produce the audio recordings of the Special Counsel’s interviews with President Biden and Mark Zwonitzer,” the president’s book ghostwriter, to the Republican-lead House Judiciary Committee chaired by Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio.
Hopefully this is what is needed. However, I’ve learned with the GOP never to get my hopes up.
