Garland landed in the hot seat—and let’s just say he didn’t exactly shine. When pressed about the elaborate lawfare scheme he and the regime have orchestrated, Garland crumbled. This issue cuts to the core of Biden’s tyrannical overreach, and it’s not only targeting President Trump. It’s bigger than that: Bannon, Navarro, Jeffrey Clark, John Eastman, the January 6 political prisoners, and Douglass Mackey—who was hit with a felony conviction just for posting an anti-Hillary meme—are all caught in this lawless, unjust dragnet.

One of my best friends in high school had a habit of saying "Damn, son" when he thought one of our crew did or said something particularly spectacular — by high school standards, of course. I had the same reaction to George Washington Law School professor and Fox News legal analyst, Jonathan Turley, and a new column in which he absolutely filleted embattled Attorney General Merrick Garland. That is, if one can fillet someone with a meat cleaver. In the Saturday column, titled "The Corruption of Attorney General Merrick Garland," Turley explains how he first "enthusiastically supported" Garland’s confirmation, only...

Julie Kelly 🇺🇸 @julie_kelly2 NEW: Donald Trump last night filed a response to Jack Smith's renewed request for a partial gag order prohibiting Trump from criticizing the Mar-a-Lago raid. Trump's attorneys reiterated the potential for a "blue on blue" confrontation first raised by @dbongino

If the mountain won't come to Mohammed... On Friday, the Department of Justice advised House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) that it would not pursue prosecution of its own head honcho, Attorney General Merrick Garland, despite the House holding him in contempt for ignoring its subpoena and refusing to turn over the audio of Special Counsel Robert Hur's interview with President Joe Biden. In a sharply worded letter, the Department of Justice informed Speaker Mike Johnson that it would not prosecute Attorney General Merrick Garland for contempt of Congress for refusing to turn over an audio file of President Joe Biden's...

OFFICIAL: The House has now held Merrick Garland in Contempt of Congress.Here are three minutes of Democrats, Never-Trump Republicans and the media assuring us that defying a congressional subpoena means that you belong in jail and that no one is above the law. pic.twitter.com/LUsFHtNHZW— Western Lensman (@WesternLensman) June 12, 2024(Headline USA) In a surprise departure from his normal insistence that the Justice Department applies the law equally, without fear or favor and regardless of politics, Attorney General Merrick Garland has let himself off the hook for the very crime against which he previously prosecuted two top advisers to former President...

House Republicans voted Wednesday to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress for refusing to hand over audio recordings of special counsel Robert Hur’s October interview with President Biden related to his retention of classified documents. Lawmakers approved the contempt measure along party lines, with 216 Republicans in favor and 207 Democrats opposed. Rep. David Joyce (R-Ohio) was the lone dissenting member of his party.

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna said she will force a vote on Merrick Garland’s arrest if the Justice Department doesn’t follow through after a contempt resolution. Last month two GOP-led House committees passed resolutions recommending US Attorney General Merrick Garland be held in contempt of Congress for refusing to hand over audio of Biden’s interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur. ..... Snip..... The full House of Representatives will vote on holding Garland in contempt on Wednesday. House Oversight Chairman James Comer previously argued that Joe Biden cannot assert executive privilege over the audio of his interview with Robert Hur because the...

EXCLUSIVE: Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., is vowing to force a vote on Attorney General Merrick Garland's arrest if the Department of Justice (DOJ) fails to act on a criminal contempt resolution backed by House GOP leaders. Luna told Fox News Digital on Tuesday evening that she would plan to force a vote on her "inherent contempt" resolution against Garland after the full House of Representatives weighs the Biden official's fate with a separate measure. "As of right now, we fully intend to bring it," Luna revealed. "I don't really have much faith in the Department of Justice. And I...

THOSE AUDIO RECORDINGS OF BIDEN'S ESPIONAGE TESTIMONY MUST BE UNIMAGINABLY SHOCKING -- HENCE, THE GARLAND COVERUP Merritt Garland MUST be held in contempt by the House. There is NO privilege that allows Garland to withhold the audio tapes of Joe Biden's interview by Special Counsel Robert Hurr. Indeed, Garland has already released the text to the House, but he edited the texts. Regardless, there is no privilege, if there had been a privilege it was waived with the release of the text, the text does not exactly reflect Biden's testimony, and the legislative branch (in this case, the House) has...

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.

Judicial Watch published proof that the entire government was involved in the Mar-a-Lago raid. They refused to give Donald Trump a heads-up as they did with Joe Biden, who actually did commit a documented crime. This information came out last month, but it’s still relevant.The recording was uncovered in an October 2022 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the Department of Homeland Security for all communications of the U.S. Secret Service internally and with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) regarding the raid on President Trump’s home and for any video or audio recordings made during the raid on...

VIDEOFormer Attorney General Eric Holder really knows his stuff in how to apply lawfare against political opponents. In this video from December 2023 he goes deep into the details with a nuts and bolts explanation of exactly how the Democrat lawfare playbook works. Let's give Holder credit. He is really quite an expert on Lawfare and how to apply it.

Merrick Garland recently testified before the House Judiciary Committee, and among other things, was “battered” over his decision to keep the recorded interview tapes between Joe Biden and special counsel Robert Hur hidden from the public.Garland has the audacity to say that no one is above the law, and his Justice department never considers politics in its decisions, but those statements are demonstrably not true. Here are a couple simple questions for Garland that show that statement is a lie:Did Biden commit felonies when he illegally took and mishandled classified documents for fifty years? Yes.Did the Justice department let him...

Democrats' lawfare got a wet snap of the towel in the face when Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky questioned the very basis for the appointment of a special counsel to target President Trump in questioning Attorney General Merrick Garland at a congressional hearing. Yesterday in the Judiciary committee, I asked AG Garland if Jack Smith’s Special Counsel office is even legal, and submitted former AG Meese’s amicus brief on that topic for the record. A few hours later, Judge Cannon agreed to allow that question to be debated in the courtroom.pic.twitter.com/TedmtbkmMP — Thomas Massie (@RepThomasMassie) June 5, 2024 He gripped...

Attorney General Merrick Garland spent some time Capitol Hill on Tuesday, sparring with Republicans who, once again, were expressing their extreme displeasure with the way he does business but not really doing anything about it. Welcome to the United States of America's never-ending nervous breakdown. Garland took umbrage with any suggestions that his Department of Justice has morphed into a vindictive goon squad that is motivated by exacting punishment upon the American Left's political enemies. Gosh, wherever would we get an idea like that? There's enough stink in the Garland DOJ to be smelled at the International Space Station. His...

@RepThomasMassie Is Special Counsel Jack Smith's office Constitutional? Unlike U.S. Attorneys, he wasn't appointed by the President and wasn't confirmed by the Senate. Congress never even authorized a Special Counsel office to exist. We shouldn’t pretend this position is legal or independent.

Demanding the immediate release of documents pertaining to “credible allegations” of “improper collusion by the Biden White House and Department of Justice (DOJ) in the sham political show trial of President Trump conducted by Alvin Bragg, the New York County District Attorney’s Office, and Judge Juan Merchan,” America First Legal is suing the Department of Justice. The principal target of the allegations of cooperation between the Biden Administration and Bragg’s office is Matthew Colangelo, a senior Biden DOJ official who joined Bragg’s team as a prosecutor after leaving the department. Before accepting a low-level position as a prosecutor in Bragg’s...
