« What they’ve been doing to [former] President Trump is political persecution, » Greene told reporters before filing a resolution to impeach Attorney General Merrick Garland.
Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia wants to impeach Attorney General Merrick Garland over what she says is the « political persecution » of former President Donald Trump.
Greene accused Garland of « endangering, undermining and compromising the justice system » in a resolution calling for his impeachment on Friday. She claims Garland « persecuted » Trump by approving of the FBI raid of the former president’s Mar-a-Lago home. Greene and other Trump loyalists have been raging since federal agents executed a search warrant at Trump’s residence earlier this week. The FBI seized multiple boxes of documents, including many that were marked classified and some that reportedly may have included nuclear secrets.
« What they’ve been doing to [former] President Trump is political persecution, » Greene told reporters before entering the Capitol to file the impeachment resolution on Friday. « Merrick Garland has abused his position of power as the attorney general to politically persecute [President] Joe Biden’s enemies. And the whole purpose of this is to prevent [former] President Trump from ever being able to hold office.
