Biden appointed a dem to be the director of the US Marshalls Service.

The House Judiciary Committee fired off its first subpoenas under the leadership of Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), targeting a trio of Biden administration officials including Attorney General Merrick Garland over a short-lived memo dealing with threats against school board members.
The subpoenas, sent also to FBI Director Christopher Wray and Education Secretary Miguel Cardona, follow a series of more than 100 letters on the 2021 memo from Judiciary Republicans.
Garland signed the memo in October of last year, noting a “disturbing spike in harassment, intimidation, and threats of violence against school administrators, board members, teachers, and staff” amid broader discussion over COVID-19 policies and how issues like race and gender are addressed at school.
Though little resulted from the memo, Republicans have remained laser-focused on it.
The subpoena, reviewed by The Hill, asks for all communications between the entities and the National School Boards Association, which first wrote to DOJ asking for help in dealing with rising threats. Jordan has repeatedly claimed the memo is a way for the Biden administration to label parents as domestic terrorists, though the FBI never charged a single parent in connection with the directive — something the chair pointed out in a recent appearance on NBC’s “Meet The Press.”
“The chilling impact on the First Amendment free speech is what we care about,” he said during the interview.

I’d love to see them fire up that little Nazi, Garland.
A nice, completely unbiased piece by Rebecca Bitch.
It’s a start.
But when do we get to the part about staging an armed raid on the house of a President of the United States?
I don’t think Jordan et all will lay a glove on Wray or Garland until they are ready to “draw sword” on em. Meaning, until they file a contempt motion, vote on it, pass it, and enforce it.
Wray and Garland so far just walk out the door and laugh at their asses off at the Republicans.
Jordan’s got the fire in the belly.
We need a lot more like him.
He needs to subpoena Randi Weingarten as well.

True, but the ability to hold hearings and oversight on the Biden administration, DOJ, & FBI can have political benefits.
Conservatives that want our liberal enemies doing “jail time” will complain, but that doesn’t change the fact that hearings can be beneficial if done properly.
Amazing how the author of this article tries to trivialize how outrageous this action was.
Seriously messed up.
Der Meritless Garland ist Gestapo.
“I’d love to see them fire up that little Nazi, Garland.”
Good luck - the Dems are EXPERTS at stonewalling, while the Republicans, when they get power in Congress are EXPERTS in getting rolled over by the Dems.
We’ll know if the Republicans are serious if they do one (or both) of the following: JAIL non-compliant people, and/or not fund DOJ. But given the Republican record...hopeless.

That two-faced POS can GTH
reply.......uh I don’t remember, I cant recall, uh, due to the ongoing investigation I cant answer this, ..next
DOJ always ignores requests to subpoena Dems. They would also probably ignore court rulings they didn't like.

That only works if there is a
Sargeant at Arms instead of a
Private at Pinkie.
Make them come to Congress with a detailed list of any reported incident of “harassment, intimidation, and threats of violence against school administrators, board members, teachers, and staff.” Include details of who the instigator was. “Harassment” and “Intimidation” are weasel words for “someone found out I did something wrong and brought it to the public’s attention.”
