Attorney General Merrick Garland called attacks on the U.S. Department of Justice "dangerous for our democracy" on Tuesday as the GOP-led House prepares to hold him in contempt of Congress. "Continued unfounded attacks against the Justice Department's employees are dangerous for people's safety. They are dangerous for our democracy. This must stop," Garland wrote in a Washington Post op-ed. Garland has refused to turn over an audio recording of President Biden's interview with special counsel Robert Hur for the investigation into Biden's handling of classified documents. This prompted House Republicans to hold him in contempt.
