‘Tension’ between nature of criminal, political investigations on display at Garland’s House hearing
Attorney General Merrick Garland was in the hot seat before the House Judiciary Committee fielding questions from Republican lawmakers regarding his handling of the investigations into President Biden and his son Hunter. Garrett Haake, Harry Litman, and Anthony Coley, who previously served as head of public affairs under Garland, join Andrea Mitchell to discuss. “I think if I had to come up with one word to describe what we all just saw, it’s tension. There’s not just tension between Democrats and Republicans, but there’s tension between the nature of criminal investigations and the nature of political investigations,” Coley says. “In criminal investigations, prosecutors follow the facts. The facts tell prosecutors where to go. With political investigations, members of Congress often start with the end in mind, right? And then they try to conduct an investigation to fill in the blanks to get the objective that they want. And so that’s what’s happened here.”

Chrystia Freeland served more than a decade in Canadian politics with roles spanning deputy prime minister to foreign minister to minister of finance. She also handled tasks including brokering trade agreements alongside leaders in Washington during President Trump’s first term. Now, the bestselling author and award-winning journalist-turned-political leader is out with a candid new book about her time in office, titled “Unreliable Boyfriend: An Insider’s View of Dealing with a Chaotic Superpower, Plutocrats, and Other Complicated People.” She joins Morning Joe to discuss her book and explain why she describes the Trump administration’s current actions toward Canada as “deranged and unacceptable.”

With 16 days until the election, candidates are making their final pitches. A new Washington Post poll puts President Trump’s approval at 33% and finds Democrats are more trusted on the economy for the first time in more than a decade. This weekend also held the fourth round of nationwide “No Kings” demonstrations, with the focus on getting people to the polls to vote early for this year’s midterms. Organizers hoped the events would lead to the largest single day of early voting in American history, while also building a network of volunteers to help defend our elections.

Everyone can see Garland gets the wink and nod to stall bury or move on aspecs of the Hunter and Joe Biden corruption investigations. Weiss has been virtually non investigating for years. despite mountains of evidense. It's offensive MSNBC calls Weiss a trump appointed person. Misleading. He was selected by 2 Delaware Sentenators and Trump went along with it but the smell of bias with MSNBC in the room reeks like a skunk bomb.

Garland looked really bad. It is noted the DOJ announced the indictment on a Friday, the day bad news is released to minimize it. Menendez appears corrupt indeed but stranger still since he was tough on Iran the left may have given the DOJ the nod to go ahead. Why did they sit on evidence over a year even through the 2020 election cycle? Sounds like more DOJ bias afoot. Toss corrupt Menendez under the bus. He's been prblematic a long time with a prior hung jury on more of the same and still was appointed on the foreign relations board? Really?

When you see the works DOJ and FBI have done in past 2 yrs.,

They also caught many corrupted Democrats and Republicans politicians
more than any other DOJ.

This is clearly a political expedition and barking at the wrong, it's pretty obvious they're working backwards hoping to find something on Biden. If they start the investigation looking for violations by the Executive Branch on meddling with the Judicial Branch, then all roads lead to Michael Cohen's reincarceration case, when he sent back to prison after serving his sentence, this time when T** found out Cohen wrote a book. Cohen actually was sent to isolation for 16 days, this was a clear case of retribution or revenge for what Cohen did. Of course T** made it easy to weaponize the DoJ to do his bidding by appointing William Barr in 2020. This violation by the Executive Branch in the person of T** instructing Bill Barr to proceed with reincarcerating Michael was heard in the news, "I have instructed Bill Barr to proceed against Michael Cohen tor violating his contract with Trump Organization. . .", to paraphrase what we all heard in the news. This actually has complications for T** making him more vulnerable as new filing shows.
Bravo to Former Adviser Anthony Foley for pointing out the difference between criminal and political cases. In here it's pretty obvious the republicans are working backwards from their end objective. Good one.

Our Department of Justice = America's Terrorist Circa 2023
Fact Checked. The Biggest Threat to Our Democratic Processes and Our Country's Freedom is the Department of Justice. Jim Comey's Comrades. They're FAKE Police Officers. Communist Thugs. Russian Paid – Larry Nassar Protecting – Frauds. Hillary stole the Democrat Primary from Bernie Sanders in 2016, even Morning Joe & Mika Brzezinski told us … Tulsi Gabbard's NOT a Russian.
