...because he got it handed to him today, and he damn well deserves it.

"Have you brought a single case against any of these protesters threatening [Justice Brett Kavanaugh]? Have you brought even one?" Cruz asked.

"Senator, you asked me whether I sat on my hands and, quite the opposite. I sent 70 United States Marshals to defend—" Garland said before being cut off.

"Let me try again. Has the Department of Justice brought even a single case under the statute? It's a yes-no question. It's not an [invitation to] give a speech on those other things you did," Cruz said.

"The jobs of the United States Marshals is to defend the lives of—" Garland said, once again getting cut off.

"So the answer is no," Cruz said, taking over Garland. "The answer is no. Why aren't you willing to say no? You know it's no; I know it's no; everyone in this hearing room knows it's no. You're not willing to answer the question. Have you brought a case under the statute, yes or no?"

"As far as I know, we haven't," Garland responded. "What we have done is defended the lives of the justices with 70 U.S. Marshals."

The fiery exchange came just minutes after Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, also blasted Garland for failing to prosecute attacks on pro-life groups and Catholic churches across the country. Lee pressed Garland to explain why just two people had been charged with violence against pro-life groups despite more than 200 incidents being reported in the past year.

Garland responded that it was easier to prosecute violations at abortion clinics because those offenses typically take place during the day and are often filmed. Attacks on pro-life centers typically take place at night, he said.



And the left said this jackass was the best choice for the Supreme Court? He's a weak, lying leftist clown.

This leftist asshole is an embarrassment to justice. To think that he was a federal judge that almost sneaked his way into SCOTUS is scary. Despise McConnell all we want, but we owe him the block.

What an extraordinary POS and the perfect Useful Idiot.

At least he was spared from having to answer a really difficult question like -

“Can you provide a definition for the word ‘woman’?”

I'm forever grateful this blatant, disingenuous, scumbag leftist didn't get on the Supreme Court.

Cruz manhandled him. Thank God this douche didn't get on to the SC.

I wish we had 60 Senators like Ted Cruz and Mike Lee. McConnell is a fucking snake along with the rest of his buds.

I should add Josh Hawley, saw him on TV last night, good man.

Hopefully it's the start of the gigantic boulder rolling downhill. We can only pray......

Just another obituary to look forward to reading, hopefully, in the near future.

It would have been fun to watch if Cruz asked him if he could define the word "Man"-the spineless gimp.

Keeping this assclown off the SC was Mitch McConnell’s greatest achievement and THANK GOD for that.

Ted Cruz, my U.S. Senator, is a perfect example of a guy being in the right place. He is extremely valuable as the kick-ass senator and not as the occupant of the White House. Term limits be damned, I hope he serves as a U.S. Senator for a long time.

Sen. Josh Hawley laid into Merrick Garland nicely.

Sen. Hawley
“How many informants do you have in the Catholic Churches across American.”

Merrick Garland
“I don’t know”

Sen. Hawley got Meritless Garland all flustered.

With all of the resources of the FBI and, I'm sure, the willing assistance of the ATFE and local authorities, the federal government can't investigate "attacks that happen at night" to the point of bringing charges in court?

That is a truly bizarre thing to say.

The executive branch has dinner at 4 and is in bed by 6.

Democrats.

I think he felt the heat from todays hearings. His voice was shakey at times, and not nearly as smug as previous interviews. REALLY happy about both!

Which means there are some. The asshole should be at the end of a rope.

I don’t have anything to add, other than: man did I love watching that asshole AG get raked over the coals.

I hate to be a doomer, but I feel like this is the limit of action that will be taken against these people. I think that Garland went home after this and had a nice meal with some more than I can afford alcohol and then did whatever evil things lefty does at night.
So what, now what? We have to make sure our local districts are MAGA and our representatives are MAGA. Hopefully we can find some heroes that will drain the swamp and remove a-holes like Garland.
