Attorney General Garland denies claims that he gave Hunter Biden special treatment

you know when merrick garland is lying when he starts stuttering when he is questioned

[almetcalf]

Let's go Brandon, and you too Garland!

[tallymay]

He absolutely did. Whistleblowers brought written documents that show that. 1) Fbi agents were never allowed to investigate the laptop. 2) The FBI agents wanted to purse harsher charges and were told by DOJ NO. 3) Prosecutor asked to move case to District of Columbia and was denied. 4) CA Prosecutor signed off and verified she concurred with original charges that were felonies. DOJ called her and told her she will change her statement to not concurre. So exactly how is that not interference?

"I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled, " Hunter Biden allegedly wrote. "Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means tonight."

Hunter isn’t in prison so we all know that there are two systems of justice.

[apooh]

He got paid big time for giving Hunter a sweet heart deal.

[danielshaw]

Pull the Bolshevik into the House of Representatives and have him take an oath. If he lies, nail him.

[paulwillis]

Liar, liar, who cares who appointed him.

[conversationswithme]

This is so obvious! Maybe they threated Garland's LIFE. That's the only way to look at this ...

[TonyP]

Mr. Garland thinks dissent against a King's man is a threat to Democracy, when it is in fact the life's blood of Democracy.

[tokesalotta]

Meanwhile, Hunter is showing his bribers that he's still an affective bribee by showing up at White House events where the Attorney General is also present

[unburdenedbyDpassageoftime]

If Merrick Himler Garland’s statement is true, why did Kodak Black, JaRule and many others went to jail for the exact same crime??? You gotta be the dumbest person to believe Merrick Bias Garland

[Mike-cgyy]

Liar Garland had to sigh for that sweet deal

[alexwalker]

"I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled. Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means tonight.”

[Vasudeva.]

If I were in hunters position I would be facing like 20 years that’s a fact.

[taniamcmullen]

Remember when they told us the laptop was russian all the propaganda

[Government-EconomicsTeacher]

He dod not say that Weiss was never told no. Notice how he dodged that question. "He had complete authority to bring a case" but notice he did not say he had complete authority to conduct the case without interference. Very legalieeze talking here.

[andrigunadi]

He may have complete authority, but you can also still block him for not answering, helping and also hiding that is still not his knowledge.

[patticake]

Have any politicians kids had worse deals? I don't think so.

[holmes]

He is stuttering when they asking questions lol wow so obvious.
