Tulsi Gabbard Responds to Garland's Claims
on Using DOJ As a 'Political Weapon'

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 9/13/2024 4:01:23 PM

On Thursday, as we covered at the time, Attorney General Merrick Garland made some rather tone deaf remarks claiming that the Department of Justice's (DOJ) "norms" are "a promise that we will not allow this department to be used as a political weapon." Garland was promptly called out for such remarks, by the Trump-Vance campaign, as well as former Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii, once a Democrat, now an Independent who is on the Trump transition team. Gabbard also addressed how her criticism is personal.

I don't remember any AG, Fascist or RFebublican, ever making statements about the Dept. of Just-Us's integrity. It's odd that for the entire history of the Dept. of Just-Us, Americans believed it followed one rule of law. But since Obambi, it's clear that the Dept of Just Us is at best questionable. An honest goobernment agency would never, ever, have to send out its head sock puppet to proclaim its fair. Never. A Des;t. only does that when all Americans know the Dept isn't honest, just or fair.

fta----Ms Gabbard: *"it's hard not to laugh at his statement where he tried to sound so serious, and so convicted, and so grave about never ever politicizing or weaponizing these government agencies when in fact that is what they are doing currently and what they have been doing for years," including during the Trump administration. "I would tell Merrick Garland today, if you are serious about the words you have just delivered to the American people, why don't you start by investigating some of your own federal agencies...* Crybaby G could do with a spanking... and no supper ....

The leftist and progressive Democrats have long been recognized by everyone who has been paying attention to fraudulently project on Trump all their evil deeds by using political dirty tricks. The bogus Russia, Russia, Russia false claims by the leftist and progressive Democrats are a prime example.

Sometimes the leftist projection is so ridiculous that it's laughable. The Department of Justice has become the Department of Get-Trump and the country has seen many examples since 2016. Leadership across the board needs a good housecleaning.

Garland would have been better off keeping his mouth shut rather than airing this ridiculous BS. It is more than obvious to everyone that weaponizing the law is exactly what the DOJ has been doing. That’s one of the reasons they are so desperate to defeat Trump. They are convinced that he will do to them what they did to him, and it would be richly deserved.

It's clear to most that Obama is behind Garland and what he does and says. Case in point. The number two person in the DOJ is Lisa Monaco, Obama's stooge who takes orders from him and transmits them to Merritt Garland. I agree with another poster that this lawfare started when Mr. Barack Hussein Obama was in office. Never before has the Left been so bold to go after their opponents with the FBI/DOJ's help.

My thought is very close to #15. The Just-Us department is following Joseph Geobbel's instructions to the letter. "Accuse your opponent of doing what you are actually doing." Garland's lies are almost as nauseatingly blatant as those of his employee Mayorkas. By the way.... isn't it a crime to lie to Congress? But... who can prosecute these crooks?

The New York Times removed a controversial headline of a column critical of Sen. JD Vance (R-OH), Donald Trump’s running mate. The original headline – “JD Vance’s Blood-and-Soil Nationalism Finds Its Target” – used a term closely associated with the Nazi Party during Adolf Hitler’s reign of Germany. The use of “blood and soil” generated an immediate backlash of accusations that the paper tied Vance’s America First policies with German nationalism espoused by the Nazi party. (X) The heat appears to have spurred the paper to edit its headline to “Shouldn’t JD Vance Represent All of Ohio?”

f you've been reading my work for a while, you know I'm fond of Sun Tzu's famous work, "The Art of War." There are many nuggets of wisdom from Sun Tzu that apply to conflict of all sorts, including this one: If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle. Donald Trump certainly knows himself, just as well as we all know him -

Prosecutors in the Laken Riley case are fighting back against the murder suspect’s bid to suppress certain evidence – including videos authorities claim show the accused ditching key evidence, such as bloody clothes, shortly after the nursing student was killed. Venezuelan migrant Jose Ibarra, 26, pled not guilty in May to 10 counts connected with the murder of Riley, 22, who was killed Feb. 22 while out for her morning run on the University of Georgia campus in Athens. In August, Ibarra requested a hearing to potentially suppress a list of evidence, including cellphones, a cheek swab and social media accounts – that he claimed were unlawfully obtained by the police

Many of them are criminals,” he said. “I’m angry about Venezuelan gangs taking over Aurora, Colorado, and illegal Haitian migrants taking over Springfield, Ohio.

He would also include conditions in their rental agreements, such as requiring people to show proof of citizenship or legal residency. “When I return to the White House, we will require all companies receiving federal housing subsidies to verify citizenship,” Trump said. “We’re going to make sure that it’s a legal residency as a condition of their rental agreements.”

Details have emerged of the first batch of stores that Big Lots is closing for good. The 292 locations, dotted all over the country, are offering as much as 50 percent off bargains - prompting a rush of shoppers looking for deals. The Columbus, Ohio-based chain on Monday filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy after years of making big losses. In total, it plans to close a third of its 1,392 locations to cuts costs as it woos a new owner. Retail experts say Big Lots main problem is that it markets itself as a place for bargains, but it is often more expensive than the likes of Walmart and Target.
