U.S. Congressman Jim Jordan from Ohio destroyed U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland and the Biden Regime during Thursday’s House Judiciary Committee hearing, telling him that Americans will no longer tolerate tyranny.
The Gateway Pundit reported that GOP lawmakers tore AG Garland to pieces during the hearling. Garland had no answers to their many questions on the dire state of the Department of In-Justice and this corrupt regime.
Here is a trnscript of what Rep. Jim Jordan told the Attorney General,
Jordan: The chairman just said the Trump DOJ was political and went after their opponents. Are you kidding me? Three weeks ago the National School Board association writes President Biden asking him to involve the FBI in local school board matters. Five days later, the Attorney General of the United States does just that. Does exactly what a political organization asked to be done. Five days.
We’ve sent, Republicans on the committee have sent the Attorney General 13 letters in the last six months. It takes weeks and months to get a response. 8 of the letters, we’ve got nothing. They just gave us the finger, said we’re not going to get back to you. And all our letters were actually sent to the Attorney General. Here is a letter sent to someone else, asking for a specific thing to be done, and in five days the Attorney General does it. Here is what the October 4th memo said. “I’m directing the FBI to convene meetings are local leaders. These meetings will open dedicated lines of communication for threat reporting.” “Dedicated lines of communication for threat reporting.”
A snitch line on parents started five days after a left-wing political organization asked for it. If that’s not political, I don’t know what is. Where is the dedicated lines of communication with local leaders regarding our Southern border, something that frankly is a federal matter? Where is the dedicated lines of communication on violent crime in our cities? Violent crime that has went up in every major urban area where Democrats have defunded the police. Nope. Can’t do that. The Biden Justice Department is going to go after parents who object to some racist, hate America curriculum. Nope. Can’t focus on the southern border where 1.7 million illegal encounters have happened this year alone. A record. A record number. MS-13 can just waltz right across the border. But the Department of Justice, they are going to open up a snitch line on parents.
A few weeks ago the IG at the Department of Justice released a report that found the FBI made over 200 errors, omissions, and lies in just 29 randomly selected FISA applications. But don’t worry, the Attorney General of the United States just put them in charge of a dedicated line of communication to report on parents who attend school board meetings.
Mr. Chairman, Americans are afraid. For the first time during my years in public office, the first time, I talked to the good folks I get the privilege of representing in the fourth district of Ohio, folks all around the country. They tell me for the first time they fear their government.
And frankly, I think it is obvious why. Every liberty we enjoy under the First Amendment has been assaulted over the last year. Stop and think about it. Americans were told you couldn’t go to church, couldn’t go to work, couldn’t go to school. Small business owners were told you are not essential, close your doors, causing many to go bankrupt. We were given curfews, stay-at-home orders. Last fall in Ohio, you had to be in your home at ten. In Pennsylvania, in your home, you had to wear a mask. In Vermont in your home, you didn’t have to have a mask because you weren’t allowed to have friends and family over.
And of course, there is always a double standard with these folks. Folks who make the rules never seem to follow them. And now the Biden administration says get a vaccine or lose your job. Even if you have had Covid and have natural immunity, get a vaccine or you will lose your job.
Oh, I almost forgot. The Biden administration also wants another dedicated line of communication for reporting. They want a second snitch line. They want banks to report on every single transaction over $600 for every single American to the IRS. The IRS, that agency with its stellar record of customer service, the IRS, you know, the same IRS that targeted conservatives the last time Joe Biden was in the executive branch.
Jefferson said once, “tyranny is when the people fear the government.” We’re there. Sadly, we are there.
But I don’t think the good people of this great country are going to cower and hide. I think your memo, Mr. Attorney General was the last straw. I think it was the catalyst for a great awakening that is just getting started. Pilots at Southwest Airlines, the Chicago Police Union, parents at school board meetings. Americans are pushing back because Americans value freedom. A few weeks ago, Terry McAuliffe said this: “I don’t think parents should be telling schools what to teach.” When government tells parents we’re smarter than you, Americans aren’t going to tolerate it. When the Attorney General of the United States sets up a snitch line on parents, Americans aren’t going to tolerate it. I think they are going to stand up to this accelerated march to communism we now see. Americans are going fight the good fight. They are going to finish the course. They are going to keep the faith because Americans value freedom.
The fraudulent election insurrection was the last straw.
This is all insult to injury.
We need to stand up and fight for our American liberties before it is too late.
