GOP Lawmakers Demand Answers from Garland on FBI Raid of Pro-Life Activist’s Home
National Review ^ | 28 September 2022 | Caroline Downey

Posted on 09/28/2022 9:29:46 PM PDT by Steely Tom

A coalition of 22 Republican lawmakers on Tuesday demanded that Attorney General Merrick Garland explain why the Department of Justice deployed the FBI to raid in SWAT style the home of a Catholic pro-life activist.

“We request an explanation for the excessive level of force used by the FBI in this case, and why the power of federal law enforcement was once again used against an American citizen in what should be a state and local matter,” the members of Congress wrote in the letter. “Please issue a written letter in response by Friday, September 30th, 2022.”

Only 22 Republicans 😔. So where are all the Libertarians? It seems that all they ever do is help the Democrats get elected. Where is the ACLU? It seems they are only interested in protecting leftist causes these days. Where is the media? Same answer as the one for the ACLU.

If don't see the name of our Fearless Feckless leader Mitch McConnell on that list. Could that be a typo?

They demand all the time. If there are no consequences for ignoring the demands, they will never cooperate.

Oh great, another useless hearing. Garland knows nothing is going to happen to him. He will lie. The hearing will end. Garland will go back to terrorizing helpless American citizens.

The answer is that the current administration is a passionate defender of abortion and is willing to use the full power of the federal government to persecute and prosecute anyone who does the least little thing against their precious abortion.

They worship abortion.
