Merrick Garland's DOJ Tells Jim Jordan It Will Not Cooperate with Hunter-Related Subpoenas

Merrick Garland’s DOJ told House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan that his subpoenas for two FBI agents involved in the investigation into Hunter Biden cannot be enforced due to an ongoing investigation.

Last week House Republicans subpoenaed FBI special agents Thomas Sobocinski and Ryeshia Holley to compel testimony on political interference and preferential treatment in the Hunter Biden investigation.

Garland’s DOJ said the subpoenas couldn’t be enforced because Congressman Jim Jordan barred DOJ lawyers at their depositions.

“The subpoenas issued by the Committee prohibit the attendance of agency counsel at appearances by two FBI employees where the Committee has indicated it will ask questions regarding information they learned within the scope of their official duties, including regarding the ongoing criminal investigation,” Carlos Uriarte, DOJ assistant attorney general wrote.

Jeff Sessions recused himself to insure that the kind of crap that’s coming out of the DOJ now didn’t come out when he was in charge. Garland’s DOJ is a friggin’ joke.

The House absolutely has the authority to lock up anyone who defies their subpoenas. They can also compel testimony. "We don't give a rat's ass what your 'policy' is, concerning 'ongoing investigations'. You will testify or rot in our basement"

Of course, the republicans in the house will do no such thing, because there isn't a complete spinal cord you could scrape together from the lot of them.

No one could possibly have predicted this. Shocking.
