Merrick Garland says those attacking pro-life centers too ‘clever’ for FBI: ‘They work at night’

 

"Attorney General Merrick Garland says those attacking pro-life centers too 'clever' for FBI: 'They work at night' - Washington Times "Attorney General Merrick Garland said Wednesday that he has deployed the FBI to track down those responsible for attacking crisis pregnancy centers but the agency has been stymied by “clever” criminals who do their work at night.

"In heated testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee, Mr. Garland defended his department’s fulsome prosecutions of protesters at abortion clinics and insisted he would deliver the same treatment to those who firebomb or vandalize Catholic churches and pro-life centers — if the FBI could find them.

“If you have any information specifically as to who those people are, we would be glad to have that,” Mr. Garland said.

“ 'That’s your job,” responded Sen. Marsha Blackburn, Tennessee Republican.

"Republican senators repeatedly pressed the attorney general on what they said was a striking disparity between prosecutions in pro-life and pro-choice attacks.

"They were incredulous at his explanation that the FBI has come up empty.

"Ms. Blackburn pointed to an attack on a pregnancy center in Tennessee where a pro-choice group, Jane’s Revenge, took credit.". . .

Report: FBI Was Against Mar-a-Lago Raid, Argued With DOJ Prosecutors (legalinsurrection.com)  "I’m so old, I remember when leaks to The Washington Post and other NeverTrump media about the Mar-a-Lago raid (but don’t call it a “raid”) were all negative to Donald Trump – nuclear secrets blah blah blah, no choice but to send 20+ FBI agents because of the risk of the documents falling into foreign hands, etc.

"Oh, how times have changed. Now that it turns out Joe Biden had classified documents dating back to his Senate days in multiple locations, and FBI searches were arranged without a show of force, and even Mike Pence got caught Sandy-Bergering stuff, well, now maybe that raid was a tad unnecessary. That’s the gist of a leak to WaPo, Showdown before the raid: FBI agents and prosecutors argued over Trump. Notice, WaPo used the R word (raid):.

Naturally, the Whoopster has an opinion:

"Months of disputes between Justice Department prosecutors and FBI agents over how best to try to recover classified documents from Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Club and residence led to a tense showdown near the end of July last year, according to four people familiar with the discussions.. . .Sara Haines attacks the intelligence of Biden critics, saying "anyone with any amount of brain cells knows these are not completely equivalent purely because of the volume" of documents. pic.twitter.com/VpxY9xtPBo— Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) January 12, 2023

It Looks Like the Biden Admin Pressured the FBI to Raid Mar-a-Lago – PJ Media 

The FBI opposed raiding Mar-a-Lago, believing a request for a full search of the property would suffice, but the Biden Admin DOJ overruled them, say sources.

Merrick Garland is literally the last person in the world who should be in charge of the DOJ. He is a lying, self righteous, disgusting little weasel. pic.twitter.com/P9JdrGtMk5
