Merrick Garland held in contempt of Congress

[Lesh]

Garland has a tape of Joe and his son sitting to wait to talk to a foreign dignitary after Biden says he was not there. Garland is protecting him and will not show the tape. 2 days later Hunter receives $5 million dollars to his bank account.

Republicans just want audio to play in attack ads. There’s no legislative purpose for their subpoena which makes it an illegitimate subpoena.

How can they use it to attack Tater if he is as "lucent" as you Cultists claim?

 

[Catsnmeters]

What rate would that be? The tax rate?

No. Not tax rate.

Who gets paid by tax rate?

What does that even mean?

You’re doing an A+ job of showing how fucking worthless government employees are.

Why do you say that?

 

[ColonelAngus]

Someone at DOJ who is not a POS should leak the audio.

Why do you say that?

You don’t even know how you get paid. How the hell do you think counties get money? Here’s a hint, it’s not through donations.

 

[Rawley]

He gave them the transcript but not audio which Biden held as executive privilege...

GOP just wants them so they can release them for political gain... This is not about making laws or oversight...

They didn't ask for Mike Pence's information in the same way...

What information did they not get from the transcripts?

The President's mental state. Hur found Biden was incompetent to stand trial for a reason.

Whether or not to impeach the President seems like a pretty significant Congressional purpose.

The subpoena didn't come out of the impeachment inquiry, so it isn't about impeachment.

I already told you.

I get paid by rate payers.

It's too bad you couldn't talk to some of the Trump loving linemen I work with.

They would love to hear your thoughts on how stupid they are. Lol.

It would be fun to watch.

 

[Rawley]

The subpoena didn't come out of the impeachment inquiry, so it isn't about impeachment.

Funny that Garland didn't challenge the subpeona.

 

[Marener]

Funny that Garland didn't challenge the subpeona.

He did when he responded to Congress as to why he is not complying with it.

 

[Rawley]

He did when he responded to Congress as to why he is not complying with it.

It was part of the impeachment inquiry. Are you ignorant or lying?

He didn't claim the subpoena was illegitimate because there was no valid legislative purpose. Your'e just making shit up now.

"It is the longstanding position of the executive branch held by administrations of both parties that an official who asserts the President's claim of executive privilege cannot be prosecuted for criminal contempt of Congress," Uriarte said in his letter to the panels.

This is all theatre. Republicans know the way this works and they're making their followers look like morons.

My mistake. I get things wrong sometimes. I own up to it.

So, what is it, are you ignorant or lying? Garland made the most absurd claim of Executive Privilege ever. He didn't claim the subpoena was illegitimate because there was no valid legislative purpose, as you claimed.

 

[jc456]

The funny part is the house has the transcript, so it's clear the transcript was doctored and why the audio is being held! Nothing more. I mean, if one has the transcript, doesn't one have the audio? demofk evil again at its finest.

What is absurd about the claim?

They said the Committee doesn't need the audio tapes to do their work. I did not accurately represent it. I was wrong. I own up to it.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

Oh, the DOJ says the DOJ can’t be held in contempt.

They also said why. How about you tackle that.

Tell us why Congress deserves to be exempt from rules of executive privilege in this case, and why they need the audio when they have the transcript.


And, go.

Law knows where the tapes are hidden. Storm in and get them ala Mar Lago
