The attorney general accused Republicans of spreading „extremely dangerous“ lies about the Department of Justice
Attorney General Merrick Garland forcefully pushes back on “false” narratives he claims are being spread about the Department of Justice, ABC News reported.
The AG chided Republicans for their “extremely dangerous falsehoods” attacks on the DOJ. During his appearance before a House panel led by Trump’s allies, he told Republicans — who are seeking to hold him in contempt for not handing over records related to Biden’s handling of classified documents after his vice presidency — that he will “not be intimidated.”
The House Judiciary Committee hearing was used by Republicans as an excuse to push their claim that Biden weaponized the department against Trump, a theory that might have held more going for it if Biden’s son, Hunter, was not himself on trial for federal firearms charges.
