Attorney General Merrick Garland, criticized by many on the right for the alleged weaponization of the Department of Justice against conservatives and political enemies of President Biden, appeared before the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday for a hearing on the state of the Department of Justice and its alleged bias against the right.
\n\"\"
\nAs could be predicted, the hearing was fiery and characterized much more by soundbites and explosive allegations than AG Garland coolly or effectively shutting down the allegations, with firebrand GOP congressman Matt Gaetz leading the charge and obliterating Biden\u2019s China stance.The White House criticized the hearing in a statement, with White House spokesperson for oversight and investigations Ian Sams saying, \u201cExtreme House Republicans are running a not-so-sophisticated distraction campaign to try to cover up their own actions that are hurtling America to a dangerous and costly government shutdown. They cannot even pass a military funding bill, \u2026 so they cranked up a circus of a hearing full of lies and disinformation with the sole goal of baselessly attacking President Biden and his family.\u201d<\/p>\n

He continued, \u201cDon\u2019t be fooled: they want to distract from the reality that their own chaos and inability to govern is going to shut down the government in a matter of days. \u2026 These sideshows won\u2019t spare House Republicans from bearing responsibility for inflicting serious damage on the country.\u201d<\/p>\n
