Contemptuous Garland

Yesterday afternoon, Attorney General Merrick Garland was found to be in contempt of Congress for refusing to comply with a congressional subpoena. The next step is to wait and see if the Justice Department will prosecute him. Hmmm, it’s a close call.

 

Just kidding! Of course, they won’t!

 

But the bigger picture here is what happens when a leftist wins the presidency. They make sure all those left-wing attorneys at the Justice Department are unleashed full force against conservatives.

 

For example, the acting associate attorney general (the number three guy at the Justice Department) quit his high-powered Washington, D.C., job to help Alvin Bragg prosecute Donald Trump. And Biden’s Justice Department is still hunting down grandmothers who briefly walked through the Capitol on January 6th, while at the same time prosecuting as many pro-life activists as possible.

 

Garland has nothing to worry about, thanks to the two systems of justice.

 

But Donald Trump’s former trade adviser, Peter Navarro, and Trump’s former White House adviser, Steve Bannon, were charged and convicted for defying a congressional subpoena. Navarro is already in jail, and Bannon is likely to end up there.

 

Do you recall when former Attorney General Jeff Sessions recused himself from key decisions that involved the Trump White House? Sadly, his premature surrender of his authority enabled virtually every leftist attack on Trump because they flowed out of that decision.

 

I know Jeff Sessions, I like him. He was one of our best voices against illegal immigration in the Senate. Unfortunately, there’s just no fight in too many of our dogs.

 

Nevertheless, kudos to House Republicans for at least trying to apply the principle of equal justice under the law.
