Good riddance to the pathetic POS. Pam Bondi will make it Justice once again.

Social media users laid into U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland after video of him leaving the Department of Justice in celebratory fashion went viral online.

https://x.com/i/status/1880429231433265649



A DOJ video depicted Garland exiting the department Friday to cheers and applause from department staffers and other government officials who had lined the halls to see him off. However, critics of the attorney general gave him quite a different reception on X, formerly Twitter.

"Good riddance, Merrick Garland — you pathetic hack. @PamBondi will finally restore dignity to the DOJ. MAGA!" RNC Research wrote on X.

The embattled attorney general was a regular target of conservatives and GOP leaders who called him corrupt throughout the four years of the Biden administration.

Critics accused Garland of weaponizing the department against President-elect Donald Trump after the official launched an investigation into Trump’s handling of classified records that included a raid of Mar-a-Lago. Garland admitted he "personally approved" the raid.

Conservatives have grilled Garland over his department’s treatment of Catholics in multiple instances — one being where GOP lawmakers accused the DOJ of refusing to "bring justice" after attacks on Catholic churches.

Garland was also grilled at a congressional hearing over Catholics being allegedly targeted by the FBI.

Conservatives went after the attorney general in 2021 after he directed the FBI and U.S. attorney offices to hold meetings with federal, state and local law enforcement leaders about ways to combat what the DOJ called an "increase in harassment, intimidation and threats of violence against school board members, teachers and workers in our nation’s public schools" coming from parents.

Prominent conservatives on X apparently had not forgotten his record in their responses to the clip.

Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., condemned Garland’s record, posting, "Merrick Garland has left @TheJusticeDept for the FINAL TIME. His DOJ attacked concerned parents. His DOJ attacked religious Catholics. His DOJ attacked political opponents. His DOJ was unprecedentedly weaponized. This disgraceful era of brazen political lawfare is FINALLY OVER."

Republican communications adviser Matt Whitlock called Garland, "One of the greatest disappointments in recent political history."

He added, "Garland went from Chief on the DC Circuit to lawless political hack for the dark money groups that controlled the Biden White House. The guy sent the FBI after parents for speaking out at school board meetings."

Gov. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., press secretary Jeremy Redfern savaged the attorney general, posting, "Never thought we’d see someone do more damage to the credibility of the DoJ than Eric Holder, but then Merrick Garland happened."

Rep. Kevin Hern, R-Okla., condemned the official, stating, "Merrick Garland presided over the wicked weaponization of the federal government against the American people. He has caused irreparable damage to the institution. Good riddance."

Conservative columnist Tim Young decried the DOJ staffers for applauding Garland in the video of his exit.

"Fire every single one of the DOJ staff applauding Merrick Garland. If you can cheer for him, you should have ZERO influence on the justice system in this country once Trump takes office," he wrote.

The Federalist CEO Sean Davis went after the applauding staffers as well, saying, "Identify and fire everyone in the photos applauding Garland or crying about his exit."

The Babylon Bee managing editor Joel Berry agreed with Davis, replying, "Just fire all of them. Empty it out completely."

Thank god he never got on to the Supreme Court. Barry nominated him, but the Senate never voted on his nomination. AMF.

Think about it from the enemy's side. He achieved a shit-ton of damage to the country. Of course the Democrats would cheer him on his way out.



Of all the enemies the American citizen faces, the Democrat Party is the very worst.

4 years of his bullshit in DOJ was enough.

Him, and everyone standing there clapping and cheering, should be thrown in prison...for life. Or hung. Either way.

What a slimy, vile, unAmerican little man.

It's remarkable...all of those people cheering for a traitor. A man who crapped all over his oath of office. The rot is far deeper than any of us can imagine.

See those assholes clapping?
Take a wild guess who is going to try and usurp Bondi every step of the way?

ALL of the different departments need to have the trash thrown out and floors cleaned up in the upcoming few weeks Wink

Yes, looking at that video, the Swamp is deep in the DOJ.
I don't know how easy it would be to get rid of the bad apples, but I'm sure the Trump transition team has figured it out.

His next video like that should be a perp walk, and we'll be the ones on the sidelines cheering.

It’s such a shame he’s not Justice Garland. <snicker>



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Yeah, he's living proof that Roberts is 100% wrong when insisting there's no such thing as an "Obama judge". Can you imagine this SOB as an associate justice on SCOTUS? For life.

Identify every last one of the applauders, open a DOJ office in Bullen Point, AK (i.e. idle Air Force defense early warning radar station 20+ miles from nearest road in Alaska), and transfer them there. They can quit or move.
