Merrick Garland: We Have Brought Charges Against 34 People For Allegedly Blocking Access to Abortion Clinics and Only Two People for Attacking Pro-Life Counseling Centers Because "We Equally Apply the Law."

He literally excuses this glaring disparity in prioritization of resources by saying, it's harder to catch the people attacking pro-life counseling centers because they do their crimes at night.

Note that in at least one case the Jane's Revenge vandals signed their names to their vandalization.

But they signed their names at night, so the FBI couldn't read them. It's hard to read in the dark!

Oh, and by the way, the FBI has "one standard of justice," you know. Which of these things is not like the others, which of these things just doesn't belong...

Before getting to that, Deb Heine underlines this interesting question:

Deb Heine, Dissident
@NiceDeb
Grassley to AG at Senate Oversight hearing: "Has the Del. US Attorney sought permission from another US Attorney's office such as in the District of Columbia or in Calif. to bring charges (against Hunter Biden)? If so was it denied?"
Garland: "I don't know the answer to that."

Why did Grassley ask that? I assume it wasn't a complete flier.

Garland had trouble explaining why Mexican drug cartels aren't being classified as terrorist organizations, as they previously had. He claimed he wouldn't oppose reclassify them as such, but said there would be "diplomatic problems" if we did.

A woman who lost two sons to fentanyl, almost certainly smuggled across the deliberately thrown-open southern border by Mexican drug cartels, had offered heartbreaking testimony the day before.

Merrick Garland also refused to say that male prisoners pretending to be women might pose a threat to female prisoners, even if those male prisoners have a history of violence against women. He just would not admit the obvious truth of this premise. He just kept mumbling that we must treat everyone with "dignity."

Your daily reminder that NeverTrump fought to get Merrick Garland appointed to the Supreme Court -- they wanted Hillary Clinton to win in 2016, and she promised to appoint him. In addition, NeverTrump routinely defends Merrick Garland, and in addition, has come out in favor of transgenderism and teaching kids gay/gender ideology in grade school. At least, they all shout when governors like DeSantis say that teachers can't teach kids that they should be gay or transgender.

But these were always the True Conservatives. Still are. Just ask 'em.

On to Merrick Garland's indefensible weaponization of government against conservatives, traditionalists, Christians, and other normies:

Kyle Shideler
@ShidelerK
Amazingly Garland doesn't even bother to cite the two Antifa linked alleged vandals who the DOJ is ACTIVELY prosecuting for their action against a Florida pregnancy resource center.

Kyle is referring to the antifa criminals known to be behind the vandalization of pregnancy resource center.

Dozens of pro-life pregnancy centers have been terrorized for months by a radical pro-choice outfit calling itself Jane's Revenge, but now it looks as if the previously unknown group is entwined with a more significant threat: Antifa.
Antifa trackers and conservative media outlets linked two Miami residents charged with conspiracy in attacks on crisis pregnancy centers in Florida to the shadowy anarchist movement after the Justice Department unsealed the federal indictment last week.

One of the suspects, 23-year-old Amber Smith-Stewart, has made no secret of her Antifa sympathies. She has identified herself as "Antifa, anti-capitalist" on her Facebook page, which includes images of pro-Antifa posters and flags from a screenshot posted on the AntifaWatch website.
The second suspect, 27-year-old Caleb Freestone, is listed on AntifaWatch and has been active with Whatever It Takes, a left-wing pro-choice group with no love for "fascists" that advocates for "sustained civil resistance" and "direct action."
He was arrested in July at a heated Miami-Dade County school board meeting and charged with disorderly conduct, resisting arrest without violence and trespassing after a warning. A woman at the meeting publicly accused him of being with Antifa, which he appeared to deny.
"People who are accused of being the boogeyman Antifa are met with a significant police response," Mr. Freestone told WLRN public radio.
The two are accused in June attacks on a trio of pregnancy resource centers in Hialeah, Hollywood and Winter Haven. Vandals left behind spray-painted messages such as "Jane," "Jane was here" and "Jane's Revenge," as well as the anarchist "A" symbol favored by Antifa.
That doesn't mean Antifa and Jane's Revenge are the same, but they likely share much of the same personnel, said Kyle Shideler, senior analyst for homeland security and counterterrorism for the Center for Security Policy.

Has Merrick Garland not even been briefed about antifa's role in the attacks on pro-life counseling centers? Or is he just covering up for the Democrat's street enforcers and paramilitary, antifa, like they always do?

Merrick Garland defended sending 20-30 SWAT-equivalent agents to make a "show of force" arrest of the pro-life protester later acquitted for the trumped-up FACE charge. The man offered to turn himself in voluntarily; the DOJ said, "No, we're gonna Branch Davidian this bitch!"

The full exchange is here. Hawley grilled him about the FBI flooding the Catholic church with informers and entrappers based on its latest paranoid delusion -- once again, fueled by hard leftwing "online researchers" -- that "radical traditionalists" are in the church and plotting terrorism.

Cruz blasted this c***sucker for failing to bring a single prosecution for illegally protesting outside Supreme Court Justices' homes:

Sen. @tedcruz goes ATOMIC on Merrick Garland for IGNORING threats against SCOTUS justices:

"Why are you unwilling to say no? The answer is 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 a question!"

Let me make a quick point about that law: Merrick Garland and other leftists say it can't be enforced because you can't criminalize someone's right to protest. First of all, that's not true: it has long been constitutional to make certain kinds of protests illegal so long as those restrictions are based on Time, Manner, and Place limitations. When they happen -- you can't play the tuba late at night to deprive people of sleep, and by the way, we saw that happening during the BLM riots.

Where they happen -- you can't protest people's personal residences, unless they're Republican, and you can't block the streets or highways, unless you're antifa or BLM.

And in what manner they happen. That is, if they're orderly or disorderly.

The government cannot block speech based on the government's sympathy for the speaker. But they can regulate it based on neutral Time, Place, and Manner restrictions.

But they keep saying "We can't just arrest people for protesting in front of the justices' homes! They think that protesting outside these homes is the most effective place to do it, so they have an absolute First Amendment right to do so!"

Meanwhile, they're prosecuting people all over the place for FACE Act violations-- saying that people are protesting too close to an abortion clinic, and that's illegal.

Wait, didn't they just make the argument that if a protester thought that protesting in a specific place was the best place to do so, we must absolutely respect his choice?

Shut up, transphobe. Your logic is racist and your demand for consistency is anti-woman.

Abortion clinics -- inviolable Holy ground. Conservative Supreme Court Justices' homes-- feel free to menace their children.

71 Here's the most insidious part. Democrats number one issue is killing babies. They are actually mobilizing the entire DoJ, with a wholesale approach, to make that a priority.

Meanwhile we are being invaded on both of our borders, scores of our children are dying each week with the fentanyl flowing across those borders, and crime is increasing/prosecutions decreasing across the board. We actually now have the highest number of unsolved murders.

If you want to trigger off the civil war, assassinating a couple of conservative Supreme Court justices and replacing them with leftwing hacks would be the way to do it.

1) required all websites that discuss news to register and be approved as journalists/reporters
2) anonymous posting on those sites would be illegal
3) the owners of those sites would be required to disclose, without warrant, the identity of all proir and current posters.

This site would be illegal. Garland was the 5th vote to make that all Constitutional.

This bull-shit is actively anti-trans. This bull-shit is why so many people here are so hostile towards people with legitimate gender dysphoria. (That and transitioning children!)

Dignity? We can't possibly imagine that some people claiming to be transgendered aren't? Namely, sex offenders? Do courts accept self-diagnoses of any other mental illness or condition? And why do we care about the dignity of sex offenders? I'd say no one does!

There is a perfectly sane logic behind it. It's the same reason that Waco went down the way it did. They didn't need to storm in with force to serve that warrant. They could have gotten Koresh on any of his routine visits to town. They did it for the same reason that they do SWAT raids on pro-life activists: the show of force.

The show of force is the primary reason for it. The purpose of the show of force is to instill fear. "I'd better not step out of line, or the Gestapo will SWAT raid my house and kill my family and dog. They do it all the time. They consider people like me dangerous, so I'd better keep my head down and not make waves because they'll murder me if I don't."

In short, the logic behind these actions is a well-understood and very familiar one when we call it by its right name: terrorism.

Garland reminded me of that in his exchange with Hawley. Oh, you object to SWAT style raid? That's the decision of the commanders on the ground. They're professionals and they get to determine how to make their raid safe. They get to do anything they want to make sure they go home safely at night.

Right. But that was Garlands excuse. Whoever decided that a raid was safer than the man voluntarily turning himself in needs to be out of a job.

I would not call Red River erotic. I think it's Howard Hawks' best film, though.

It's really about one generation stepping aside for the next. The central relationship is between John Wayne and Montgomery Clift. If someone described it as erotic, they're implying there's a homosexual relationship there, I would guess. It's not there, though.

It's really worthwhile and a great film. I just don't think it's erotic like, at all. Unless sweaty men outside driving cattle is all you need for eroticism, in which case it's got that in spades.

215 You forget as well, it is illegal, straight up, to protest outside the homes of supreme court justices. A 1950 statute prohibits picketing or parading in front of a courthouse or judge’s home with the intent to obstruct justice or influence a judge. Title 18, Section 1507 of the U.S. Code.

It's not even debatable or questionable that this is illegal and a federal offense.

The Supreme Court has addressed bans on residential protests. For example, in the 1988 Frisby v. Schultz case, the Supreme Court upheld a Wisconsin law that banned targeted picketing outside of a person’s home.

The administration needed to back up its "we will fight fight fight for your bortions" mantra, so they sent those guys to prove it. They did not care that he had not actually broken a law. They got their optics - and we might think that dudes with machine guns kicking in a door while kids are crying in the corner is a negative, the coveted "women's vote" (INSERT EXCEPTION FOR ETTES HERE) likes it.

I think it was common practice for Peter Pan to be played by a girl since the first stage production. Probably something to do with having an adult play a boy, sort of thing.

It's also common practice to have the same actor play the father and Captain Hook.

Searched on YouTube and played the first song that came up: "It Takes a Girl". You can already see where this is going 😔

The message can't be clearer/There's something to be done/We need to keep the Earth, the land, the trees/Under the sun/We wish that you would wake up/It's time, you cannot run/The truth you've tried to bury/Keeps us separate and not one

[Chorus]
It takes a girl/To save the world

Like the FBI, the USMS is under DoJ. Garland, as head of the DoJ, could tell the US Marshals to arrest. They answer to him, after all.

So did Cruz ask about *that,* by chance? What's with this fiction that the Fibbies and the Marshals are somehow independent and do their own thing? They aren't, and they don't. The answer to the AG, and take orders from the AG.

294 There is no reform of the federal government possible.

There are 2 options:
1) a president who personally hates the city and everyone who lives there and lives only for the glee of seeing the whole swamp aflame
2) states saying, "no, we won't." to the whole federal government.
No, we won't: collect your taxes, enforce your laws, allow your officers to live here, etc.

Anyone saying, this new law or that new law will fix it, they are only bargaining with the alligator. Any politician saying that merely means to feed you to the alligator first.

And yet, every female led action movie at this point is only and ever about it being a female led action movie instead of just another action movie. The femaleness isn't incidental, it's central, like the Charlie's Angel movies.

The female "twist" is literally the only reason these movies get made anymore. That's all they are.

Seriously, Hollywood has been making women action leads for more than 40 years. It's not new, and the public has caught onto the con.

371 Alien is not a female-led action movie. The initial sequences involve three men. Dallas is captain and in charge right up until he buys the farm. Ripley survives. Yes, she's competent and comes through. But its relly an ensemble cast. Most of Ripley's post-Dallas conduct is not super action-oriented. She has more in common with scream queens, fleeing the Alien more than pursuing it. She's not really a female lead in an action movie her because Aliens isn't really an action movie. It's horror set in space. Now the sequel . . .

374 Bears may bluff their way out of an encounter by charging and then turning away at the last second.

If a gerbil charges at you and turns away at the last sedcond, that is a 'bluff'. When lions, tigers, bears or elephants do that, it is not a 'bluff', it is a threat, and a warning of immediate death or great bodily injury.

377 350 What about Resident Evil? Pretty effective female lead?
Posted by: sharon(willow's apprentice) at March 02, 2023 01:04 PM (Y+l9t)

She was alright in the 1st movie. In the subsequent sequels, she became a Mary Sue who got, lost, and then regained bullshit psionic powers. Pay no attention to the fact that her and the director of most of the RE movies, Paul WS Anderson, hooked up after the 1st movie.

She can physically do the stunts, but she has even less facial range of motion than Daisy Ridley did in the Star Wars sequels.

381 289 Merrick Garland reminds me of circa late 1930s Krauts who never served in the trenches, but loved snappy uniforms. Sitting in an office, collating index cards with names of enemies of the state, hoping for a promotion that would get them a dagger and side arm. Maybe even hitting the big time and be an Arbeits lager kommandant.
======
Garland's type goes further back than that. The oily opportunist who uses his master's authority to dispense one-sided justice and uphold the rule of might over the rule of law (and coincidentally make a profit) is a staple role in history during times of conflict. I am re-reading a history of the Wars of the Roses, and Garland nicely matches some of the Beaufort retainers who ended up earning great resentment against their lord, and his relative and overlord, Henry VI.

Not that I recommend anyone watch it but there is a 1984 porn movie called Nasty Lady with an ultra bubbly woman scene around the 16 minute mark.

I once had a girl say "Outstanding" to me during sex, I instantly lost my wood. There are serious down sides to only hearing nothing but criticism during your life, you have no response but confusion, if somebody praises you.

LAPD Will No Longer Send Armed Officers To These 911 Calls
By Kayla Thomas
Mar 1, 2023
I think this is a great step in the right direction to ending senseless killings in our community. The Los Angeles Police Department just released a list of calls for service that can be handled by first responders that will not be armed.

Check out the list below, provided by KTLA:

389 Biggest hypocrisy, and I noted this earlier- he told Cruz couldn't prosecute SCOTUS protestors because US Marshall's did not arrest- apply same logic to J6 protestors, right? Oh, nope. Prosecurorial discretion rests with prosecutors and arrest not required for prosecution. Just a big, stupid lie, from a big, stupid, corrupt liar.

390 Gee Deuce, is the U.S Department of Justice under the Demented Biden corrupt???

Or, is it now blatantly obvious they’re corrupt and they’re publicly giving everyone the doubled barrel middle finger and daring anyone and everyone to stop them.

And you know what? They won’t be stopped.

Fact is, your anti-groomer idol is counting on them to take out President Trump. Otherwise, DeSanctus’ sphincter is going to get tighter and tighter as each day passes before the GOP debates and primaries.

By the way, how is the Club for Growth Donor meeting going? Any toasts to all the new low-wage migrant laborers entering the country? Or to the outsourcing of more American manufacturing jobs to lower-wage countries (hopefully, ones not waging biological war against Americans, not that the Club for Growth really cares about that).

391 That FBI armed raid on that innocent pastor..you know that was done because the SAC wanted to show the Junta she was on board with their agenda.

I doubt she needed any sort of encouragement from the DOJ.

Mr. Houck is not a pastor (i.e., a Catholic priest). He is a devout member of the laity.

Otherwise, your point about the prosecutor's motivation is on-point.
