Biden's relationship with his AG Merrick Garland is now in 'DEEP FREEZE' because White House 'thinks tough probes into Hunter and classified documents are unfair'

quote:

Joe Biden's relationship with his attorney general, Merrick Garland, is so icy it is 'in the deep freeze', according to a report on Saturday.

Biden and his aides are infuriated by Garland's decision to appoint special counsels to investigate both Biden's handling of classified documents, and his son Hunter's business affairs. They told The Wall Street Journal that Garland was seen as going too far in his effort to appear independent from Biden, who appointed him.

But Garland's aides told the paper that the widely-respected, low-key official was simply trying to stop any suspicion that Biden was influencing his decisions.



quote:

Biden's aides noted that prosecutors have already closed their investigation into former vice president Mike Pence's handling of classified documents, after papers were found at his Indiana home.

Pence's papers were found in the same month that documents were located at Biden's Delaware home: both Biden and Pence handed over the documents to the authorities, and declared the discovery themselves - unlike Trump.

But Biden's case has now been referred to a special counsel, the aides pointed out.


quote:


And a lawyer for Hunter Biden - who on Thursday was federally indicted on charges of lying about his drug use on a gun permit - accused Garland of being biased against the Bidens.

The lawyer said the decisions to appoint a special counsel and indict Hunter, after he had agreed to a plea deal, showed 'partisan interference in this process.'

Time for Biden to pull a the Nixon card.

Ask Garland to fire the special prosecutor then when he fails to do so fire him. Then keep going down the DOJ chain until they find a sympathetic ear.

Unfortunately, the media is liable to cast enough shade that the firings were justified and needed.

Show me where Pence’s crackhead son was cutting and pasting classified information from his fathers document stash into emails to his business associates.

First of all, the quotes are from the WSJ a well known Democrat mouthpiece.

Then this is my favorite:

This is all political theater. Biden is senile and clueless. Garland is doing what the Central Committee of the Democrat Party wants, which is to APPEAR independent. These proves will lead to nothing.

Active investigations freeze out embarrassing questions.

Shouldn't this "relationship" kind of always be like this cause Democrats have always said that the 2 shouldn't be in cahoots? I'm confused...

This is BS, they’re putting this out so that it can be spread around that Garland is independent and is not following WH orders. Garland’s job is to make sure nothing touches Joe.

Remember how the media referred to Bill Barr as “handpicked AG”? Weird how they never use that term in relation to Garland.

That’s (D)ifferent

Maybe Garland is starting to feel the heat and trying to rehab his image as a sober minded independent jurist.......and not the political hack he is

Me thinks the Biden administration doth protest too much. This is some bullshite smokescreen being pedaled by the leftist media they got their marching orders from. Everything Merrick shines light on is by design perpetuated by this administration.

No.

Just because he appoints a “special council” to investigate doesn’t mean convictions come from it.

Pretty simple to “investigate”, appear to be doing the right thing, but actually just running out the clock before finally stating there’s no proof of wrongdoing.

Amazing how many people still fall for it. And it only happened after Republicans threatened to investigate him.

They just be playing a role to make igs (ignorants) believe they really are not on the very same page. Biden will resign before being impeached proclaiming, unlike Trump, he is just not willing to put the nation through another impeachment. (The NIXON Model)

Kamala "Spread 'Em For Ya" Harris will pardon Joe and his brilliant son Hunter of all of their corruption. (The Ford Model) No treasonous facts will ever be presented in a court of law.

This combined with the CNN “Biden is a liar” piece means that the powers that be have decided that Biden’s time is up. They don’t want him to run again as he is a liability. This is the “Go away or we will make you go away”, signal.
