** Garland Says No Double Standard in Biden’s Classified Doc Scandal
------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------
Attorney General Merrick Garland ([link removed]) told reporters in a press conference on Monday ([link removed]) that his department has not applied a double standard of justice to President Biden’s classified document scandal, after reportedly agreeing with Biden’s personal lawyers to hide the scandal from the American people.
“We do not have different rules for Democrats or Republicans, different rules for the powerful or the powerless, different rules for the rich and for the poor, we apply the facts, and the law in each case in a neutral, non-partisan manner,” Garland claimed. “That is what we always do.”
Uh-huh.
But according to the Washington Post, not only did the White House and DOJ try to conceal the scandal from the public, but they also refused ([link removed]) to divulge that the second trove of classified documents was already unearthed at Biden’s home in Wilmington when CBS News first contacted the White House about the initial leak of classified documents apparently illegally stored at the Biden Penn Center.
“Early on, Biden’s attorneys and Justice Department investigators both thought they had a shared understanding about keeping the matter quiet,” the Post admitted, noting the Biden administration’s attempt to conceal revelations of the second trove of stashed documents.
The New York Times reported ([link removed]) that “[t]he quiet cooperation continued for weeks” between the aides and the DOJ.

** Garland Declines to Label Antifa & BLM Violence As “Terrorism”
------------------------------------------------------------
During his Senate confirmation hearing ([link removed]) as well, Garland emphasized ([link removed]) the Justice Department’s responsibility to “battl[e] extremist attacks on our democratic institutions” and described ([link removed]) the January 6, 2021 storming of the U.S. Capitol by several hundred people claiming to be Trump supporters as “the most heinous attack on the democratic process” that he had ever seen. Republican Senator Josh Hawley — referring to the numerous, much-more-violent attacks that leftists affiliated with Antifa ([link removed]) and Black Lives Matter ([link removed]) had carried out against federal courthouses in Portland
([link removed]) and Seattle ([link removed]) during 2020 — asked Garland: “Do you regard assaults on federal courthouses or other federal property as attacks of domestic extremism, domestic terrorism?” In his reply ([link removed]) , Garland suggested that the leftist violence did not rise to the level of “terrorism” because it mostly occurred at night:
“Well senator, my own definition, which is about the same as the statutory definition, is the use of violence or threats of violence in an attempt to disrupt the democratic processes. So an attack on a courthouse while in operation, trying to prevent judges from actually deciding cases, that plainly is domestic extremism, domestic terrorism. An attack simply on a government property at night or any other circumstances is a clear crime and a serious one and should be punished. I don’t know enough about the facts of the example you’re talking about, but that’s where I draw the line. One is—both are criminal, one is a core attack on our democratic institutions.”
