President Joe Biden’s nominee for U.S. attorney general (, Merrick Garland), said during his Senate confirmation hearing Monday that he has not spoken with the president about the investigation into his son, ( Hunter Biden), but insisted that any Justice Department probes will be free of political interference.
Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) asked Garland if he’s talked to the President about any Hunter Biden investigations.
“I have not,” Garland replied, adding that, “the President made abundantly clear in every public statement before and after my nomination that the decisions about investigations and prosecutions will be left to the Justice Department.”
What probe? Nothing to see here, move along...
When you won’t ask your own state department to account for tens of billions of dollars for 7 years in a row, I call that spreading it around. Just in a clever way. Obama & Co. are always full of clever and ego. A real classless bunch. No sense of humor or likeable qualities. Just Alinsky thugs who went from living on grants and scams to direct to the US government treasury.
I couldn’t believe this guy’s testimony. He was a stuttering clown. This guy was supposed to be a Supreme Court Justice?
That and State Department millions that went missing when hillary was running the show.
Possibly true. Biden probably doesn’t even know that who Garland is and that “he” nominated him for AG.
The headline should simply read “Merrick Garland is a Liar”.
He was a stuttering clown.
In my best Bob Hope impression - “You mean like Democrats?”
The nice thing about these hearings?
They demonstrate how utterly unqualified this guy was to sit on the SCOTUS.
Merrick Garland is a political hack, who is only out for revenge. He is not qualified to be Attorney General, or to continue serving as a judge.
The thing with democrats and their swamp creatures they don’t HAVE to talk to the president about anything. They have “General Orders” the same as the military. The goal is to weaken the country, destroy their enemies, and empower themselves forever. There’s nothing to talk about.
No need to speak about Hunter Biden who will be cleared soon and quietly.
What Garland did speak about is John Durham who he will soon look forward to showing the door and ending the investigation into the most massive criminality by the Deep State against Americans in US history.
