Much has been made today surrounding a Senate hearing where Attorney General Merrick Garland was grilled about a host of issues highlighting the political weaponization of the DOJ. Many ‘right side’ articles are noting Garland came across as weak, unsteady and nervous as he attempted to obfuscate specific examples and larger points of criticism.
Unfortunately, almost everyone is missing something. AG Merrick Garland has a control operative behind him. That person is the uber political Deputy AG Lisa Monaco. AG Garland isn’t the one calling the shots on these specific examples being cited, DAG Monaco is. Watch this questioning from the perspective that Monaco, not Garland, is the one calling the shots on the weaponization specifics. More
That’s fine, but is still entertaining watching this little shitweasel squirm.
As Harry Truman said, “The buck stops here.”
Garland is the AG. The DOJ is his department. He is responsible. He could fire Monaco.
I think it was Jesse Waters who said that the reason none of these people can talk about any of these cases is because there is an ongoing investigation and the government is investigating everything so they don’t have to answer any questions.
Years ago in Seattle a ballot measure was approved to greatly expand the monorail. Of course it turned into a boondoggle (and was later rescinded). The Monorail board put just about every law firm in the state of Washington on retainer so there would be no lawyers available for bringing lawsuits against the board for malfeasance. Watching Garland and Wray questioned in the Senate reminds me of that.
Today I watched several clips of various Republican senators thundering away at Garland’s incompetence, his targeting of Christian Catholics, his failure to charge any of the demonstrators that threatened scotus judges, and his failure to jail any of the BLM rioters. I did not witness any squirming at all. He did what he always does; he lies, he obfuscates, he deflects, and he never answers any of the questions. TBH, he looked bored throughout the whole ordeal, knowing that the railing senators cannot do anything to him, all the while wondering what he’s going to have for lunch.
Another goddamn Nest of Vipers.

Enjoy it while you can, but I’m still the boss of you. And you’re going to find that out real soon.
