The so-called top law enforcement agent in our nation will do everything in his power to circumvent the decision of our 3rd branch of government. The Biden Attorney General made that clear in the statement he issued after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.
Merrick Garland falsely claims in his statement that the Supreme Court of the United States “has eliminated an established right that has been an established component of women’s liberty for half a century – a right that has safeguarded women’s ability to participate fully and equally in society.”
Just as an aside here, abortion is not in the Constitution as a right and it never belonged in it. It is a state’s rights issue.
He “strongly disagrees” and feels it strikes a “devastating blow to reproductive freedom.” However, he admits the states can keep abortion “within their borders.”
Garland wants the government to pay for transit for those people who have to travel to abort/kill their unborn babies.
Everyone is allowed to protest “peacefully”, he emphasized.
We would love to know his definition of “peacefully”. He did allow radical communists and anarchists to threaten the lives of Justices outside their homes — illegally. He added that the Justice Department will not tolerate “violence or threats of violence.”
“The Justice Department will work tirelessly to protect and advance reproductive freedom,” he wrote in his statement.
HERE’S WHERE IT GETS DICEY
He supports “efforts by Congress to codify Americans’ reproductive rights” and other legislative efforts to ensure access to comprehensive reproductive services.” He is suggesting that Congress pass a national law circumventing the Supreme Court.
“And we stand ready to work with other arms of the federal government that seek to use their lawful authorities to protect and preserve access to reproductive care”, he said, referencing abortifacients.
Garland also insists federal agencies can “continue to provide reproductive health services to the extent authorized by federal law. And federal employees who carry out their duties by providing such services must be allowed to do so free from the threat of liability. It is the Department’s longstanding position that Stats generally may not impose criminal or civil liability on federal employees who perform their duties in a manner authorized by federal law.”
He goes on the say it does not “violate the Assimilative Crimes Act”.
Is this how he will circumvent the Court? They can begin to allow abortions in federal buildings or military bases in any and every state they choose.
The Left will not abide by the rule of law. They will find ways around it to destroy any laws they don’t like.

It would appear that Mr. Garland is openly and by his own admission in Contempt of the USSC. He is in violation of his sworn “Oath of Office” and likely a plethora of other violations/felonies associated with being an “Officer of the Court” … sedition also comes to mind. It is a most curious idea that the USSC could charge… Read more »
Heh! Heh! The govt will pay to transfer someone for an abortion. There’s almost no diesel, and won’t be any gasoline, if Dems have their way. Rickshaw ride from Denver to California, anyone? Heh!
Garland could and should be impeached. The trick is to find anyone in our present congress with the cahoes to do it. All but a handful are simply democommie party lackeys doing the bidding the the global cartel. Garlands primary job is to ensure duly enacted laws by congress are “Fairly” enforced by those assigned to the Justice dept. Most… Read more »
This son of a bitch has to be impeached he has been out of control from the start but who has the stones to do anything about him?The RINOs will not The country will not survive if the high court is ignored.I fear that the communists have just about taken over.
Merrick Garland is showing us the danger of National Police Forces and why NO FEDERAL Law Officer should have any jurisdiction in Any State over any Citizen, except those holding political office. Federal Law Officers duties should be confined to things like Border Control, the expulsion of Illegal Aliens, and Political Corruption; like ballot box stuffing and stealing elections. We… Read more »
Let me get this right both FJB and Merrick garland former potential Supreme Court candidate; believe that the laws created by the Supreme Court and established under their guidance and interpreted the way the founding fathers intended they’re saying don’t follow the oath of office that they sworn to uphold. I believe they’ve immediately resigned their position based on them… Read more »
Can’t Garland be removed for such a statement? To state that he won’t enforce Federal Law? Amazing how blatant and overt Democrat corruption has become…and we continue (as a society) to accept it.
He is suggesting that Congress pass a national law circumventing the Supreme Court. No. He is suggesting that Congress pass a national law circumventing the U.S. Constitution. Congress has just passed a “Red Flag” law that violates the U.S. Constitution. He is perfectly happy with that. Little by little the Marxists are destroying the foundation of our country. A.G. Garland… Read more »
