Worst Attorney General in history.
Please explain your comment. It's easy to make such general statements merely repeating what you've been told.
That was AG Barr
Besides bill Barr
Agreed, Garland took way too long to investigate the Jan 6 offenders.
MONSTERS ALL👿👿👿👿👿❌🚫🚫🪳🪳🪳🪳🪳❌❌
GET EM OUTA THERE‼️‼️‼️
Thank God that he didn't make it to the US Supreme Court!
Praise Jesus!
Thanks to the Senator who did a lot of questioning and didn't make it to the Supreme Court, or else our justice will be worse.
and Mitch McConnell!
As incredible as that is.
You think the 3 who did make it are any better?
@@43pacelike who?
Now we need criminal investigation into Garland
A real one. Otherwise ...dont bother.
Who you think will charge him now?? his FBI and doj cronies??😂😢😂😢😂 hahahaj
Naw, we don't need anymore "investigations", we need direct action.
Republicans are great for their "investigations" and sound-bytes every 2 and 6 years, then nothing happens.
Why waste more money and time investigating what should be as plain to you as the nose on your face?
Hear hear 👍🏼
Absolutely!!
Everytime I hear Merrick Garland speak I think thank god he didn't get put on the supreme court
AGREE 💯👍👍
Yes, and he's pissed. It shows.
He's such weasel
Amen!
no kidding huh
we really need to get rid of this Nadler,what a sickening person.
Absolutely, what a disgrace, the man has no shame or humility.
Do the people actually vote for him?
voting isnt real yo
@@richreid7098 It's NY...what do you expect?
@@shocktech102 I totally agree with you BUT unfortunately is freakin DOWNSTATE not us rednecks here in Upstate. It's like Jokel...only 13 out of 62 counties won by the nasty woman!!
When are these lying, corrupt, hypocrites going to jail
NEVER..........jail is not the way
Can Mad Matt be taken to jail? Here's hoping..
@@mikewheeler5694mad Matt sounds like a great nickname for someone to endorse, which I do. Get em, Mad Matt!
@@mikewheeler5694 And what charge would you levy against him? You got nothing but "hope" and if you hold out one hand for hope and the other for crap, guess which one fills up first?
@@theatre721 no wonder the US is turning into the laughing stock of the world.
How is Garland not in prison and how is Nadler a human?
Nadler might not be a human, when he talks he sounds like he's %75 mucus %25 human
Thank God Garland didn't get on the Supreme Court.
Him and his "Chosenites" are doing plenty of damage to the country as is!
Steve Bannon, Peter Navarro charged with Contempt serving time. Merrick Garland’s Contempt - NOTHING TO SEE. WTF
Except that Garland is sitting there and testifying.
Garland is a murdering monster. Thats why hes in our government. He decides who to murder, or who to put in prison, an what Judge to use like The judge in NYC to make sure Trump goes to jail. Its not going to work. This judge will be disbarred. Find out how much money he has an fine him that much.
Matt Gaetz shook him up. Merrick Garland was stuttering and stammering all over himself. Now, 4 days later judge Merchan drops news flash about a corrupt jurror leaking pre- determined jury decission against Trump.
Looks like Merchan doesnt want to go down wirh the ship for Biden
@@yanstevContempt doesn't stop at compelling testimony
Same question. Why arent these criminals sent jail? Contempt for a Trump supporter should carry no more penalty than contempt for a biden supporter.
Garland spits on the spirit of the law.
You're thinking of Trump
@@justinoff1 Really? How so?
@@justinoff1we still love all you Demons
@@thomasmanning829 ask any number of his attorneys who are either in jail or lost their law license committing fraud for him
@@SoldiersNRprayers , Nope because the democratic party looks nothing like it used to and now only evil men and women run on the democratic ticket.
Never will you see two weasles working together like nadler and Merrick.
I just CANT BELIEVe. , NOTHING can be done to STOP these CORRUPT POLITICIANS.
Something always can be done.
@@KilmorHenderson With the help of God.
Garland is shamefull
And people wonder why they didn't even humor his nomination to the SC..
Hands down one of the worst people to ever exist
he has NO shame
He’s worse than shameful! What a disgrace to our country!
This DOJ needs jail time. We the people want to see all his emails & cell calls.
I think treason has a stiffer consequence
But who is going to prosecute the prosecutors? We have a situation in which two wolves and a sheep are deciding what's for dinner, but this time the sheep has no defense against the wolves.
@@maidenminnesota1we're going to need someone thats tough, fearless, and not afraid of the mainstream media. Because they'll be attacked daily in the media. Quick question, does the Democrat party pay big tech and the mainstream media for all their help and support daily? That's a good question that real journalists should be asking before the election.
On what basis should Garland be held for treason? Pursuing court cases where an ex-President who tried to overthrow an Election; or illegally took, held, lied about, and was caught possessing classified documents is what the Justice Department is supposed to do. Do you really think that Trump is innocent? If so,, then Trump should go to trial and clear his good name, right?
That is ok. Then ask your rep to make a request.
When every person asked will not answer if the FBI was involved, it means they are involved
What a piece of work. Answer the questions. How can this even happen in the USA? Despicable!!!
Justice Dept using targeted lawfare against political opponents is disgusting and un-American.
Greed
Garland gives orders to get Trump Mafia style - He told his cohorts “YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO, Trump”.
Trump used the IRS to persecute opponents
Trust me when I tell you this... It ain't the Justice Department. They don't have nationwide coordination and sequencing capabilities.
It's new world orderan.
Garland must believe he’s above the law. What an evil demon!
It's so very ridiculous.
Why can't The Republican Congress Arrest him for all his prejudiced and hatefilled actions.
He follows the law ...
Trump was asked how many times to turn over documents that turned into a raid on his house to get them back
We absolutely DO NOT NEED TO RESPECT ANY JURY VERDICT!!!
Or CROOKED JUDGES EITHER!
But the new york law was a misdemenor past the statute of limitations. Absolutely disgusting what they are doing
They are all crooks!
Exactly!
This is the Republican party it's there true nature and the Republicans are no longer hiding it and now it's clear that they are going to do everything they can whether it be legal or illegal they will now stop at nothing to get there king in power and there is now nothing that they are not willing to do for there king!!!
Pick a side coward.
You got that right! Who vets these ignorant people?
@@kurtis7328that wasn't very nice! People are starting to get this disaster..let them learn without the name calling. That's what Demoncrats do! Be an adult about it!
Garland needs an 🍊 jumpsuit and 25 years
Along with Fauci and Bill Gates!
* 25+ years
Also Biden and hunter
No that's not tough enough...
Minimum 25 years
We pay these people, unbelievable! He can't answer because he'd have to lie under oath. They really think we are clueless !
When will we see REAL Republicans stand with and support and HELP Trump? He needs help.
Edit: When will rogue politicians be held accountable and sent to prison?
Don't hold your breath
I'm so sick of the corruption of the DOJ and Merrick Garland. What a liar. Just like his boss.
Barr and Trump were way more corrupt. Garland is literally following the DOJ guidelines set by Barr
Nadler is an absolute clown act!
The penguin!
He's a yes vote for everything dems want. Dems NYC $$ ppl tell him what to do.
@@lambfactory2537 That's not accurate. Penguins have necks. Nadler is a toad.
He is a literal swamp thing.
He did say the day Clinton resigned that “one day, we will take your president away, Republicans”
Who on earth would have ever suggested this Garland for the Supreme Court, though he MAY know what a woman is
Obama did
Not a conspiracy theory when it is played out right in front of you.
Once again, nothing to see here. Evil at its finest.
Evil only succeeds when good people do nothing!!!
Stop the bull Nadler, Merrick Garland, Judge Merchant,etc
All these people were great until they did their jobs Trump. They have prosecuted many cases, and no one had anything to say about their work...
I mute him. I muted BO. I mute HRC. Big Mike (wretch)…
Agreed, the more laws that Donald Trump breaks, the more we hate the justice system.
We call Nadler...
Poopy pants.
😄😆😅😂🤣
When Matt Gaetz asks Garland “Was there ever a time when you were a judge, you had a family member who was personally profiting off of the notoriety of a case that was before your court?”
NOTICE that Garlands answer did NOT answer the question, but redirects the response to “another jurisdiction” that he won’t comment on.
In other words he slipped out of incriminating himself by not answering about his time as a judge. Perhaps more investigation into Garland is warranted.
The theatre of the absurd...when are there ever any repercussions about the allegations set forward in any of these hearings?
You're missing the boat.. The elephant in the room. THEY ARE THE ONES WHO BRING THE CHARGES AND GET THEM INTO COURT. they dam sure aren't gonna arrest themselves or each other.. That's how rouge corrupt governments work. They move goal posts and keep the playing ground on an unlevel tilt.. Rigged
Like you said. Theatre. Gives the illusion that justice will be served. And after every strongly worded speech brutally exposing the rot...nothing happens. ...and scene.
Exactly … Trump has been a target for 8 years!!! Matt is Right!!
Here is a list of Democrats who have been indicted or be investigated by the DOJ.. Rep. Chaka Faffah, sen.Bob Menendez, rep. Henry Cuellar, Rep. Cori Bush, rep. TJ. Cox, rep. Currine Brown...
I mean he’s def a target but also definitely did most of those things. He probably wouldn’t be in this situation if he was a decent human being but he’s a corrupt billionaire that pissed off the other corrupt billionaires.
@@DankasorusRexdid what exactly?….overvalued his properties (didn’t) which all developers do, payed off a porn h@e which is not illegal, had classified docs which he Obama, Clinton and Biden all do, or whole heartedly believed there was election cheating and that he won…..they have been after him since he got elected and even before he took office, as pelosi, Maxine waters and others said we will impeach him, before day one and his even doing anything…he hasn’t done anything worse than any other president, yet only he is twice impeached, three year fake special council Russia investigation, and criminal indictments in three jurisdictions with many accused felonies…..they hate him so bad and made him an outlaw, which now myself and tens of millions support even more
@@DankasorusRexI don't think he's done everything they claim he's done, after all he's not a politician who's been in office for DECADES. And besides that they all liked Trump and his donations before he decided to run for President.
@@DankasorusRexwell at least you’re half convinced, better than most liberals lol . None of what they’re charging him with is a crime and they all know it. They probably won’t even give him jail or probation they just wanted to publicly smear him and make the headlines of CONVICTED FELON. That’s all
Liar. Garland should be imprisoned
Why? Explain

Matt Gaetz is better suited to the Supreme Court than is Merrick Garland.
Merrick Garland Answers to THE PEOPLE. Matt G. Represents those PEOPLE. Garland has ZERO right not to answer ANY question posed by the PEOPLE.
5 amendment sure does give every citizen the right to remain silent.we give them there Rights., but they denied 4 constitutional rights or more to DJT during his recent trial
Thank you Matt Gaetz! We love you and you exposing corruption and trying to get truth to We The People!!!!
Isn’t is amazing that the charges against Gaetz have been dismissed . So much for projecting only democrats
You have to be kidding
@@keithbennett902
Controlled opposition.
22-380 should have been heard 😔
He is a joke
Wow these people are so corrupt the attorney general should just resign hes a disgrace to our country..
He stumbled a lot over the questions... what a corrupt clown...
How does that worm go home and look his family in the eyes. Garland is a national disgrace.
I believe they'd find out what they're looking for if those being questioned would take a polygraph or two.
Great Job Matt Gaetz. So proud you are a Floridian and Constitutional American.
LOL
@@charlotteorges2035 🤨
We got some of the best in Florida, Kentucky, Tennessee
@charlotteorges2035 your side is guilty, they overused the court system and you know it. If he provides the documents everyone will see how tainted the democrats are.
The whole justice system for politicians is a joke
Kangaroo court
That's the problem , State law should have to report to the Government, especially in high profile cases , maybe then we won't have so much injustice.
Ahhh... The ol' go-to answer, "I cannot comment on an on-going investigation." What a sham!
How is Nadler still in office with his room temperature I.Q. .......
Because HE'S BOUGHT AND PAID FOR....LIKE ALL THE REST OF LIFE TIME POLITICIAN'S BOTH SIDES
You're stretching that I 〽️ Q number, last I knew it hadn't reached into the double digits!! 😂
Jerry Nadler is disgusting.
Didn't he poo his pants on live TV?
He's going through three pairs of depends a day
Merrick Garland knew what was on the lap top!
Merrick Garland replied "I did NOT dispatch anyone to Brag's office. Those were decisions made in another office, not in MY office!" - soo, who outranks Garland, and could possibly have made that decision then? ;-)
Need to look into Merrick Garlands involvement in the Oklahoma City Bombings.
This weasel is like the Wray ! They won’t answer questions because they know they are lying under oath!
Is that why Trump never takes the stand?
@@BlackrainOrdinanceNo, any other goofy questions?
Weasel is correct !
@BlackrainOrdinance he doesn't take the stand because your cult leaders take everything he says and twist it into something totally different and out of context.. besides that he doesn't need to take the stand.. do you think your boy hunter will take the stand in his trial?
Not answering if DOJ had communications with the law offices is like admitting they did, but has to hide them.
Love these young, intelligent, and moral men standing up against the corrupt geezers.
I'm not even American, but this is so disturbing!!!!!
All of you, under 50 in the RNC need to re- brand yourselves as the Young Republicans ...take back the Republic!!!
Keep going Mr. Gaetz. We all know that the judge and his family are personally profiting from the trial. WE ALL KNOW.
They think we are fools.
We are all FOOLS
We are more drunk than foolish. Fortunately the liquor can wear off.
Why do you think we have sports and movies and events and all sorts of things to keep us distracted from whats going on.
Actually... it's nothing citizens can do about it.
@@Concern_Citizen vote and vote hard.
😂😂😂love it, “don’t need a history lesson!”
These guys beat around the bush all the time !
At what point did "the majority" seem confused about the difference between state and federal cases? Seems like a non sequitur.
Nobody believes that any of these offices are “independent” or act independently.
Exactly..extreme colusion
Garland is a disgrace
So is Penguin.
he is a big black spot on the whole system.
He’s not a disgrace Donald draft dodger trump is. He’s coned you all
@@Jarod-vg9wqcake or waffle?
@@007Zachman- 🤣
For Gods sakesMAN IMPEACH THE SOB AND REMOVE HIM.
Where do these people come from they will pay
Garlands voice screams " Guilty as charged". This dude has been lying for a very very long time and he doesn't give a s_ _ t. !!!!!!!! He needs go to the Big House !!!!!
After that I honestly believe that Garland's entire career as a judge should be investigated.
Just because you don't like the verdict doesn't mean that the judge is doing anything against the laws.He is flowing the rule of laws in America and nothing of the trial was rigged please don't be another Donald Trump who won't accept reality because he doesn't like it and that he is being held responsible for the crimes that he has committed!!!
No one is saying the DOJ controls the state...... we're saying they are collaborating
Wait till they get the transcripts of who visited the white house & when😂
Corrupt to its core,The rot is obvious.
CALLING IT A 'TYRAID' WAS INSULTING A CONGRESS MEMBER! THOUGHT THAT WAS AGAINST THE RULES!!!
Talk. Talk. Talk. DO SOMETHING!!!
Regarding Nadler's last question and the response from the AG:
Yes, the Manhattan DA is a state agency independent of the federal government. HOWEVER, why are the prosecuting based on federal election law that the Federal Election Commission declined to charge?
I don't understand these committees. Nothing is ever achieved.
Yup, more blah blah blah
Without these committees. None of us would know how corrupted these high level officials really are.
What’s happen next is all up to the people.
It's all show for us peasants. One side plays good guy while the other plays bad guy and nothing gets resolved but it keeps the people from uprising.
Sadly, I feel the same. Lots of talk, no do.
At least, these committees do increase public awareness of the corruption
It's a show. Matt Gaetz has no character, but he loves publicity. He's big on camera, does nothing for the people of the Florida panhandle he represents.
If you or I answered the way Garland did we would be held in contempt of congress !
No. Congress knows the difference in federal and state. Gaetz is counting on dumba-- MAGA not to.
The number of democrats in contempt of congress, ie Holder, is something that happens
with democrats and congress. There was no collaboration between feds fani, alvin, plus really?
@garygliddon9070
Seems like the Country is now aware of Contempt of Court. Yes, you, I an any American would be thrown in jail if we broke Marchan's gag order. Hoping Trump's sentencing will reflect so.
...& placed under the jail. We the people are so fed up with the crooks in the judicial system & other systems too.

I'm thankful that the right has at least a few strong fighters like Jordan, Gaetz, Paul, and Green
Perfect Rep Matt Gaetz question.

I will not comment on an open investigation. Garland, said over 5,000 times.
Merrick Garland should spend the rest of his life in prison traitor
Sick of these LIARS who LITERALLY get away with Murder. They are So high, Nobody above them to hold them accountable.
Mr. Trump is lying low and will have their heads on sticks when he is in the White House in Jan. 2025!
Matt G is an absolutel Bull Dog and the other is a scared rabbit.
And this precisely why Sleepy Don Von Schitzinpantz-Fartoso will not serve a night in jail.
Have you heard of GOD? Don't think for a second people will get away unless they confess their sins to GOD and REPENT and believe on The LORD Jesus Christ of Nazareth who is the Son of GOD
I agree, Matt Gatze should be held accountable.
Treason!!!
Not treason . That is trying to over throw the government or giving aid to the enemy. Nothing else. Only 40 people been convicted of that in 247 year history of our country. Only 3 got the death penalty. Several were pardoned and rest did 5 yay prison term. No one been charged with treason in 80 years. Very rarely is the crime. This dude is failure to up hold his oath and abuse of power
Can’t anyone just answer the question!? Will you give our representatives the correspondence? That man is not elected, he works for us and, in fact, he’s our employee! Raid his office! He doesn’t have any problem raiding peoples homes and offices!
This is disgraceful I see no reason why this AG is still AG
Fake elections have consequences
Because nobody can remove Biden's puppet as long as Democrats control the Senate
the corporations own the left and they are protected,
He's corrupt and evil, and he works for Joe Biden.
Because you don't understand there is no connection between the DOJ and NY, federal and state. Gaetz knows this, and he knows you don't. He's counting on your stupidity. You're doing great.
HE NEED TO GO TO JAIL
Why?
Gitmo please.
He will in about 6 months.. I hope Las Vegas is taking odds on this..
He needs to go to jail then on to Hell !!!
Jelly Belly needs to retire.
Matt Gaetz is AWESOME! He is one of the very few Congressman that has the balls to go after these corrupt idiots.

nadler needs to go, my God what a buffoon !
Garland is on it up to his kneck
“kneck” is the twisting of a cable or a rope as it running out. Is that what you were implying?
If it was Barr, the now AG of Biden, Trump, is finished.
You know exactly what was being talked about; you feel better now that you’ve shown your little self!
Who cares if a word was misspelled? 😟 self appointed
Grammar police! Yuk! 6-4-24
Trump was done with his entire war room came out and said he blows, his own Secretary of Defense, National Security Advisor, and the joint chiefs, not Dems, not radical socialists, but people who know Trump well. He's a loser.
And Nadler 'the Pengiun' has no neck.
Garland , needs to be arrested . 😊
What a line of crap from the weisel
Thank You Matt!
Grotesque is the only word I can come up with to describe Nadler and this disgusting AG.
Merrick Garland should be never allowed to be in this position.
He's doing a great job. Bannon's "throw shit agains the wall" only works with evidence. Federal is not state. Gaetz know it, he's counting on MAGA not to.
Thank God he didn't make the cut for the Supremes.
He's a monster.
There is no law.

Glad you said that.

Keep blaming others instead of the FELON who committed THIRTY FOUR FELONIES.
Try to download the court transcripts. Or do you prefer to beleive the CON's lying words?
