Attorney General Merrick Garland came very close to getting arrested this week, but four House RINOs hurled themselves in the way and prevented it from happening.
Once again, the GOP has snatched defeat from the jaws of certain victory!
The House voted on a resolution to hold AG Garland in Inherent Contempt because of his refusal to comply with a lawful congressional subpoena.
This is hopefully just a temporary setback, however. Several House Republicans were gone when the vote was taken, so we should hopefully still get to see Garland in handcuffs at a future vote.
Biden’s Attorney General has been under fire for defying a lawful House subpoena to turn over special counsel Robert Hur’s taped interview with Joe Biden. The Justice Department released the transcript, which was bad enough, but the House committees investigating the Biden Crime Family’s bribery schemes want to hear the audio tapes.
Plus, Biden was interviewed for several hours on these tapes. It would be good for the voters to see what a blithering fool he is in that context since he spends more time asleep than awake these days.
Garland has defied subpoenas for the tapes for several months now. During that same time, he has sent former Trump advisors Peter Navarro and Steve Bannon to prison for the same thing.
The difference is that Bannon and Navarro’s subpoenas were illegitimate because they came from Nancy Pelosi’s January 6 Committee—which was never properly formulated as a committee.
So, Garland has been walking around a free man because the Justice Department refuses to prosecute him for the same crime that Trump supporters are being imprisoned over.
Rep. Anna Luna (R-FL) moved to have an Inherent Contempt resolution passed against Garland for defying lawful House subpoenas. Inherent Contempt is one of the most powerful tools that Congress has to compel testimony or documents from federal employees.
If a majority votes to hold a person in Inherent Contempt of Congress, the House Sergeant of Arms goes and arrests that person. They are then frog-marched onto the House floor so the charges can be read against them. After that, they get thrown in a jail cell until they decide to testify or turn over the documents (or tapes, in this case).
How ironic would it have been for Merrick Garland to get tossed into the same jail where he’s imprisoning the peaceful January 6 protesters without trial?
On Thursday, the vote for Rep. Luna’s Inherent Contempt resolution finally happened. Four RINOs voted with Democrats to barely save Merrick Garland from being arrested.
For the record, here they are:
Reps. Tom McClintock (CA), John Duarte (CA), David Joyce (OH), and Mike Turner (OH).
These four congressmen apparently think it’s okay for Merrick Garland to prosecute Donald Trump, arrest mostly peaceful January 6 protesters and destroy their lives, and ignore lawful subpoenas. The GOP voters in their districts should remember this.
While our contempt for the four RINOs is well-deserved, we shouldn’t give up hope. This looks like a temporary setback and it’s not Rep. Luna’s first rodeo in dealing with RINOs who want to undermine their party and trample on their own voters.
Rep. Luna’s first attempt to censure Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) failed because there were not enough people in DC when it happened. She filed a resolution for majority Republicans to censure Schiff because of his endless stream of lies about the Russia collusion hoax. Schiff abused his power as the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee by pretending he had seen concrete evidence that President Trump worked with Vladimir Putin to steal the 2016 election from Hillary Clinton.
Luna waited a week and then she nailed Schiff for his lies. A lot of Republicans still aren’t back from the Fourth of July holiday, so that’s the main reason why Garland was spared from a jail cell this week. Rep. Luna plans to bring the resolution to the House floor again next week. In the meantime, Republican constituents of those four RINOs should call them and put pressure on them to support the Inherent Contempt resolution.
This would be a massive victory for Republicans against Merrick Garland and the Biden regime’s lawfare against President Trump. It couldn’t happen to a nicer guy.
Enough of this B.S. Just “Do It” !!!!! With all of this nonsense we became a Country of liars and cheaters? So Sad!!!
The fall of Democracy
Vote these RINO’s out of office!!!!! What is so difficult about that? Democrats and weak Republicans are destroying our country. Get rid of these people!
First you have get Americans to think about this evil swamp rats we have in the Republican Rino party. The Republican party will never stand up together. That’s the problem here.
Also you have to see where these evil rinos districts are. That answer why they are so screwed up… blind sheep waiting to be what .
Et tu rhinos
The Republican party is just a wimps and cowards acting like they representing Americans, what they are actually a useless empty Suits walking around bowing to the control freaks Democrats. Evil to the core. It’s been going on for decades. Now hasn’t it Americans!!???@@
yes!!! I agree… SO SAD!!!
This is why nothing has been done about the 2020 “SELECTION” vs “Never elected” process still in place. It is also what happens when you have attorneys as representatives.
What’s good for the goose, is good for Garland!! I’m appalled by the way the democrats say “no one is above the law” and yet they lie and cheat without any repercussions!!! They say Trump doesn’t respect the law but he let them in Mar Largo and appeared in court!! That’s law abiding, not having to issue subpoenas left and right to get information! They claim that they want democracy??? SO DO WE!!! ARREST GARLAND!!!
Well . Fact : Americans have no representatives in our chambers. And ever politician and government entity is the enemy of every America . They serve themselves and illegals and other countries If you don’t think so . Then ask why the millions of illegals cancel your votes. For your one vote there is at least 10 illegals votes That voids and nullifies your vote. And why everything they pass is for everyone but Americans But the debt is on our backs . . Who needs new terrorists? When we have a whole nation of government employees.. Think about it people how much do you really know about your politicians? Especially your representatives . I watched here in Texas the Republican Party try to destroy the one man Ken Paxton with lies and the democrats help . When this man really serves the people ! That man would be great at the head of the DOJ . Do you ever look up Their voting ? You can go to US.gov and maneuver the list to get to their votes. That’s just one way . I do .And all three of mine are anus connections. Plus I call their offices. Their offices are just a cover up. Most are rude and hateful and some are not. Well this is what I have seen and watched and heard . Cruz the play the game for self . Never ever actually cares what his constituents thinks or mingles with what they call lower class people. That means everyone . Cornyn the traitor of every American .. And Morgan Lutrell who splits hairs on his votes . But never for Americans! And I let them know about it ! iAnswer ! I bet you know Nothing until their scandal is no longer needed by the democrats. We all knew Trump was a turd . For over 50 yrs . Every aspect of his life was led out in the media’s . No surprises there ! But America needed a business man not a politician after Obama. After this idiot in our house . And it appears even if Trump wins. That the same thing will happen unless we change the republicans who will sit in our chambers . Sending the same ones back year after year and expecting a different outcome . Is stupid to say the least . Trump at least tried to help And Americans were at the top of his list. The Republicans think because they Yadda Yadda . We are all idiots. That’s all they do is talk. Not one thing have they done or accomplished Except to get rich selling us out. They have allowed the democrats their way for all the over 58 yrs of my voting .
Any republicans who crosses the isle or works with democrats. Does so to the demise of America. Never in our history has the person on the top of the ballot lost while all the others won. And those same republicans were the ones that fought Trump and ever helped him for Americans But they sure were pals with the media’s To the point that everything he passed was only executive order. Which Biden day one with a stroke of the pen removed. The tax break he gave Americans disappeared right then. Thank the idiots who put him in for that . This was done . So all of them could push that Trump never did anything. Which they have. Talk about an evil entire terrorist enemy government to all of the legal Americans. Democrats have not destroyed this country alone.
And Jim Jordan the wussie who never gave protection to the whistle blowers. Allowed Wray . Who has done the same about
His subpoenas . And Never has him arrested . Allowed 5 of the whistle blowers to be murdered. As if we don’t know who did them.
Wussies And Nazis And perverts run America. And naked queers run the lawn of our White House .
All I can say . Is God plz take over .
Two of those pricks are from my state of Ohio!!
Rinos – REPUBLICANS IN NAME ONLY must carry the WARNING LABEL, HAZARDOUS to AMERICA! Hazardous to AMERICA! Is a WARNING for American Voters to verify the CONGRESSIONAL voting record to be sure it reflects their REPUBLICAN claims or are they batting for the other party. That’s not working across the aisle to solve America’s problems.
Term Limits are needed to solve many of the Professional Politician Problems in America.
