DOJ Memo on Garland and Contempt of Congress Blows Up Latest Media Narrative About Biden
TownhallJUN 2024
The Biden administration has created a two-tiered justice system in America, and this refusal to pursue contempt charges against Attorney General Merrick Garland just reaffirms this issue. It's utterly unacceptable that Biden's DOJ has ignored this referral for contempt, especially after prosecuting Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro for the same reason.
Given that Pres. Joe Biden invoked executive privilege last month, no one should expect anything other than this decision. It has been a longstanding position of the DOJ — no matter which party is in office — not to charge officials with contempt for declining to comply with congressional subpoenas for material subject to presidential executive privilege.
