Biden Attorney General Merrick Garland is testifying before the House Judiciary Committee for the first time since a special counsel brought two criminal indictments against former President Donald Trump, and a sweetheart plea deal for Hunter Biden collapsed.

Out of the gate, Garland says he won’t talk about discussions with David C. Weiss, the special counsel in the Hunter Biden case.

And now for the questions:
“Have you had personal contact with anyone at FBI headquarters about the Hunter Biden investigation?” –@RepMikeJohnson

Garland also insisted that the DOJ doesn’t apply two standards of justice.

Attorney General Garland just falsely argued that DOJ doesn’t apply two standards of justice.
It’s clear that if you’re a Biden or Clinton you’re held to a different standard of “justice” than normal Americans.
