The House is expected to vote Wednesday on a resolution to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress.
If I’m being held in contempt by the likes of Mike Johnson, Gym Jordan, Beetlejuice, and Marjie The Gross-Looking, then I know I’m doing something right.
Seriously. I’d be holding an award ceremony for myself. Maybe as a fundraiser to be donated to their opponents.
I’m no fan of Merrick Garland for all of the obvious reasons, but while I wholeheartedly disagree with the way he’s handled multiple things, none of them rise to the standards where impeachment or contempt of congress is warranted.
I genuinely fucking love Merrick Garland and it confounds me that people have an issue with him. There may be some hindsight 20/20 wishful thinking about making things magically happen faster, but the guy is genuinely trying and did everything by the book; and in doing so, he ensures his own actions don’t jeopardize the trial outcomes.
Most of the criticism comes from people who know not a fucking thing about the legal system.
I think people forget Garland was denied an appointment to the SCOTUS by the GOP as a nominee by Obama.
Just take a page out of the Republican playbook and ignore the subpoena 🤷
