‘I am not the president’s lawyer’: AG Garland to defend DOJ at hearing
#MerrickGarland #GOP #Congress
The republican party is a party of terrorists, traitors, fascists, and bigots.
Anyone that thinks he’s doing a great job, should go look how well he closed and protects our border as 4,000 people are crossing today not to mention how none of them are vetted my question is why !!! And don’t tell me it’s the republicans fault because democrats have been in office for 2.5 years and how many millions have crossed??? Come on you can’t say he’s doing his job!
Garlands job is to protect a corrupt president and his son obviously.
'I am not the president's lawyer' that's exactly who've you been… NEXT!!!
Garland is the most corrupt attorney General of all time .And everybody knows it
LOL, Garland is corrupt just like Biden.
The Justice Department is supposed to work for the American People. That is certainly true. The problem that so many of the American People have is that they can clearly see that Merrick Garland's Justice Department works for the Democratic Party, and good luck getting MSNBC, which also works for the Democratic Party, to ever admit it.
YOUR STATIONS ACRONYM SHOULDS BE MSN"BS "
Powerful words from a powerful man.
A clear jab at Bill Barr, Trump/putin's criminal defense attorney general.
Yes he is. He knows he is. Snakes. All of them. This guy is just like Eric Holder. Bought and paid for.
Did Garland just admit that Biden is not President by saying, “not my president”? He said it. Touch black no backs.
GARLAND ,TRUMP BUDDY.
"Mouthpiece" – FTFY!
republicans openly don't understand the judicial system or the constitution in the USA. Stupid is the word.
True. He isn't the President's lawyer. He and his precious DOJ are owned by the Democrats. Not one office.
Not the president's attorney. He is the attorney for Biden's puppeteers.
We wouldn't be in this situation if Garland wasn't such a spineless coward who will go down in history for having obstructed the FBI, delayed the DOJ from indicting Trump for 18 months and failed to prosecute Trump or ANY of his Congressional co-conspirators for sedition and insurrection!! 🤬
Corrupt doj puppets
"Gym" Jordan, be warned. Your admission about trashing the US economy and threatening our security to extort prosecutors to protect Trump just may get you investigated and indicted for prosecution interference and possibly treason. Sir, so you work for Russia or China?
If the republicans had approved him for the supreme court we wouldn't be here. This is garlands ultimate revenge.
We all know he is corrupt !! He lies over and over again two tiers of justice !!!
I am at a point with politics that when any Republican speaks, I go deaf. It is all crap double speak and they cannot be trusted. Their only agenda is obfuscation and distraction. I.e. Hunter Biden,shut the gov’t down. Impeachment, abortion restrictions, Their purpose is to overthrow our Constitution and rule by tyranny. AIN’T GONNA HAPPEN FOLKS!! Your corrupt leader IS going to do some kind of time for his crimes. GET USED TO THIS IDEA!
“ then we are coming after you” ( in court )
Garland looks like one scared puppy who if he doesn't do as they say he may lose his life. He is corrupted and compromised.
JJ just want to get DIRT on Merick so he can help and side with DT
Republican bloviating , here’s hoping they don’t get any sound bites from Garland .
A lot of this could have been prevented if Garland had shown he had a spine when he was first appointed. Now he flexes three years into the job.
This is a taxpayer funded predictable circus. They should be writing legislation or negotiating solutions to avert a Government shutdown.
BEAUTIFUL OPENING STATEMENT that, unfortunately, will not be heard by people who simply have no business being in power and certainly do not represent the majority of Americans.
Circa 2023, Our Department of Justice = America's Terrorist
Fact Checked. The biggest threat to our Democratic Processes and Our Country's Freedom is our Larry Nassar Loving Department of Justice. Jim Comey's Comrades.
Stop the nonsense the american people know how corrupt the biden DOJ is Defund the FBI, ATF, IRS and Department of education..NOW.!!
Disgusting to watch Republicans waste our tax dollars on frivolous badgering of Garland about issues nobody cares about.
No but your doing a good job brown noseing.
My vote is going for RFK Jr. He is not beholden to either party. He has been involved in environmental causes and issues for over 40 years. Check him out.
The problem is…Trump used the DOJ for his personal issues and Barr let him for the most part!
"Barr was Trump's personal lawyer which means Garland is Biden's personal lawyer and that is just not how this works. The AG can not be the President's lawyer. Bad Brandon!"
– Cult
Not his lawyer but definitely a paid biden shill
Garland actually believes he is not partisan 😂😂😂
