Republican Representative Jim Jordan (R-OH) strongly confronted Attorney General Merrick Garland during a heated congressional hearing today.

During Wednesday’s hearing, Garland appeared disoriented and uncertain while facing questions from Republican lawmakers.

At one juncture, Jordan accused Garland of colluding with Democratic President Joe Biden to shield his son, Hunter Biden.

It’s worth noting that Hunter Biden faced federal gun-related charges last week. However, critics argue that this action is merely an attempt to create the appearance of impartiality while the Department of Justice (DOJ) is accused of pursuing politically motivated cases against former President Donald Trump and his associates.

“The fix is in,” Jordan said during the hearing.

“Even with the face-saving indictment last week of Hunter Biden, everyone knows the fix is in.”

Garland replied with an unbelievable statement:

“I promised the Senate when I came before it for confirmation that I would leave [Special Counsel David] Weiss in place and that I would not interfere with his investigation.

“I’m not going to get into the internal deliberations of the department, I made clear that if Weiss wanted to bring a case in any jurisdiction, he would be able to do that.

“We will not be intimidated,” Garland said.

“We will do our jobs free from outside interference.

“And we will not back down from defending our democracy.”

Jordan fired back:

“You said David Weiss had complete authority, but he’d already been turned down.

“He wanted to bring an action in D.C. and the US Attorney there said, ‘No, you can’t!’

“And then you go tell the U.S. Senate, under oath, that he has complete authority?!”
