"We do not deserve to live under a mafia state. It's unfortunate that Merrick Garland does not agree with that. He seems to be committed to keeping the mafia state apparatus which grew under Trump intact at the DOJ." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/merrick-…
"Garland is continuing the DOJ's defense of Trump against E Jean Carroll. Barr initiated this defense and it was and is NOT normal. It is an absolute abuse of executive power that results in taxpayers paying for Trump's defense against a woman he raped." patreon.com/posts/merrick-…
"To remind you of how disgusting and unprecedented this was, here is what Carroll's lawyers said about the case at the time:" patreon.com/posts/merrick-…
"The Carroll case is part of a pattern with Garland, who treats Trump and his crime cult as above the law. Garland has:
1) Defended Trump and Barr when they ordered the beating and gassing of protesters in Lafayette Square and got the military involved

2) Covered up Barr’s obstruction of the Mueller probe and refused to release the full OLC memo that Barr used as a pretext for his lies
3) Defended DOJ's spying on Washington Post, CNN, and other media outlets for Trump
4) Defended McGahn against congressional Dems' subpoenas
5) Has given no briefings about the January 6 attacks on the Capitol and refuses to prosecute any of the high level operatives like Roger Stone, Michael Flynn, and Steve Bannon who helped plan and propagate it; here he is similar to Christopher Wray (who still has not been fired)
This broke after @gaslitnation taped, but here's how Garland's DOJ is celebrating pride month
"Merrick Garland is the wrong person for the job at this time. The abuse of powers at DOJ indicate that either Trump made a deal or that the DOJ has been purged, and Garland doesn't know how to stand up to corruption." -- @AndreaChalupa on @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/merrick-…
"The muscle needed to take on the international crime syndicate that has clearly infiltrated DOJ has atrophied for Garland over his 24 years of administrative law and consensus building." -- @AndreaChalupa on @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/merrick-…
"Under the right circumstances, Garland could have grown into the DOJ role -- but we don't have time for that! The Kremlin-backed national emergency of growing authoritarianism is deeply funded and may succeed by 2024 if not sooner." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/merrick-…
Merrick Garland’s DOJ continues the protection of the mafia state
