Attorney General Merrick Garland on Monday faces a deadline to hand over records of President Biden’s special counsel interview, and may be held in contempt of Congress if he does not. If Garland is held in contempt of Congress, as head of the DOJ he would be in charge of prosecuting himself. Not going to happen. We are ruled by the lawless.
Peter Navarro and Steve Bannon were thrown in jail for this very thing.
Republicans on the Oversight, Judiciary and Ways and Means committees gave the attorney general until noon on Monday to give over materials from Robert Hur’s interviews with Biden that led him to conclude the president is ‘elderly’ and ‘well-meaning’ but has a ‘poor memory.’

Attorney General Merrick Garland Refuses Congressional Subpoena for Joe Biden Audio, Setting Stage for Contempt Charge
“We will not tolerate this obstruction, and we are prepared to hold Attorney General Garland in contempt of Congress if necessary.”
By: Valient News, April 9, 2024:
Joe Biden’s Justice Department has refused to turn over subpoenaed audio recordings of former Special Counsel Robert Hur’s interview with President Biden to House Republicans.
This decision has led House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer, R-Ky., and House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, to threaten to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress. The House members had set Monday, April 8, as the deadline for Garland to comply with their subpoena.
The subpoenaed audio recordings pertain to an interview conducted by Robert Hur, who was appointed as Special Counsel by Attorney General Merrick Garland to investigate President Biden’s handling of classified documents. The House Republicans have been seeking these recordings as part of their ongoing oversight efforts into the Biden administration.
In response to the Justice Department’s refusal to comply with the subpoena, Comer and Jordan issued a joint statement expressing their frustration and disappointment. They argued that the audio recordings are essential to their investigation and that the Justice Department’s decision to withhold them is an obstruction of their constitutional oversight responsibilities.

“The American people deserve transparency and accountability from their government,” the statement read.
“The Justice Department’s refusal to turn over these recordings is a clear attempt to obstruct our legitimate oversight efforts. We will not tolerate this obstruction, and we are prepared to hold Attorney General Garland in contempt of Congress if necessary.”
