NextImg:House Fails to Hold Merrick Garland in Inherent Contempt

It was back in May that the House Judiciary Committee voted to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt for refusing to turn over the audio recordings of Special Counsel Robert Hur's interview of President Joe Biden regarding the classified documents in Biden's possession. In June, the entire House voted 208-207 to hold Garland in contempt of Congress. The Justice Department soon issued a memo that argued Garland couldn't be prosecuted for being in contempt (even though Steve Bannon just started his four-month term in prison for defying a subpoena).

The Justice Department has argued that a transcript (with "minor" fixes) has been released, so the audio must be damning for them to fight so hard to keep it away from the public.

The House voted Thursday not to hold Garland in inherent contempt, which would come with a $10,000 a day fine for every day the subpoenaed recordings were not handed over.

The fourth is Mike Turner (OH-11).

Remember, her vote to censure Adam Schiff took 2 tries before it finally happened

Merrick Garland can run but he can’t hide

They really don't want those recordings made public.

But Garland has investigated himself and determined he can't be held accountable.

Just a reminder that Hunter Biden and Eric Holder have been held in contempt of Congress as well and faced zero consequences.

Fortunately, the House can hold another vote when more members are present … and maybe the RINOs will get the message in the meantime.
