The Hill is out with my column on how serving as Attorney General has corrupted the judgment of Merrick Garland, who I enthusiastically supported for confirmation. I now fear that I was wrong...

If Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro have to go prison...so does Merrick Garland

@RepMTG is right.

@RepMTG The House has now held Merrick Garland in Contempt of Congress.

@RepMTG Congressional contempt should lead to jail.

But don’t take my word for it, listen to Democrats saying so for 3+ minutes.

So then why is the DOJ refusing to prosecute Merrick Garland?

@RepMTG ...Garland seems entirely adrift in his own department. While offering platitudes about being beyond politics, he continues to run interference for the Biden White House. He appears to be looking to close aides for direction.

@RepMTG House Republicans advanced Merrick Garland's contempt proceedings in Congress over his refusal to release the Biden audio tapes.

We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community.

The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution.

Don’t give up the ship.

NOTE from me

The Democratic veterans in Congress who call out the service members to disobey orders will not be penalized for free speech.

The service members who disobey orders will face consequences and penalties.

That is the difference.

Oversight Dems have received new emails from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate that raise serious questions about Donald Trump and his knowledge of Epstein’s horrific crimes.

Democrats intentionally redacted the name of the "victim" in the Epstein emails they released.

The unreacted version shows that it was Virginia Guiffre.

@CynicalPublius Yes, Google is misinterpreting the rules

“. . . information must be approved for public release by an appropriate authorizing official before it is released, even if it is unclassified."

This quote was fed into google.

I fed in the longer, complete quote

“. . . information must be approved for public release by an appropriate authorizing official before it is released by any military member, DoW civilian employee or contract employee, even if it is unclassified.”

- still misinterpreted

@CynicalPublius I believe that Google interprets this from an authoritative perspective. The authority is the mainstream press.

The press is using Google, and Google is parroting their thinking in answer.
