Despite Merrick Garland's Assurances, DOJ Officials and the National Sheriffs' Association Objected to His Targeting of Christian Conservative Parents

Biden DOJ targeted parents at school board meetings despite FBI, sheriffs' objections, memos show
AFL said it acquired the documents as part of its ongoing lawsuit related to former Attorney General Merrick Garland's October 4, 2021 memorandum that targeted concerned parents at school board meetings during the COVID pandemic.

By Nicholas Ballasy

Former President Joe Biden's Justice Department used federal law enforcement to target parents at school board meetings as potential threats "despite warnings from FBI officials and the National Sheriffs' Association," according to America First Legal's analysis of new government documents it obtained.
AFL, a conservative legal nonprofit, said it acquired the documents as part of its ongoing lawsuit related to former Attorney General Merrick Garland's October 4, 2021 memorandum that targeted concerned parents at school board meetings during the COVID pandemic.
...
Some inside DOJ also fretted the strategy would boomerang, and create a political headache for elections,
"I don't think it's possible to state how strongly I object to this. It will completely and totally nuke our election threats efforts, and will damage the reputation of the Public Integrity Section into the bargain," one top DOJ official wrote in an email. "It's like they've affirmatively trying to make this thing not work and look political."
"If they do this, they might as well rename the damn thing the Anti-MAGA Task Force," an official wrote.
The National Sheriffs' Association also shared concerns like those of the FBI, the memos show...

The Sheriffs were not aware of any "threats to school officials." That's because it was all invented, yet another hoax Moral Panic created by the left to justify endless warfare against its many, many, many enemies.

The FBI enforced the memo, AFL noted, establishing a new threat tag, "EDUOFFICIALS."

Of course. These are the same types of people who walked down apartment building corridors in Moscow during the Great Purge. They have NO PROBLEM using political power to destroy their enemies. Their only concern is how the use of that power might cause the populace to remove them. That is the goal with cheating- remove the ability of the populace to stop them.

47 Eurotard gets trapped on the tracks between lowered gates. He gets out to see if he's still on the tracks. He is. So he slowly hops the curb to avoid pushing through the gates. At which point a train speeds through the back half of his vehicle.

This moron needs to be studied.

1. One of the gates is still up when he stops. He could have kept driving.
2. He could and should have pushed through the gate when he found himself in danger.
3. Once he starts trying to hop the curb, he pulls a bizarre turn maneuver that makes no sense.

http://tiny.cc/oo35101

Is he simply low IQ? Is he so deeply mired in a rule following mindset that pushing through the barrier is unthinkable? Does he think the barrier will cause so much damage to the vehicle that it's an unacceptable option?

74 Cry more - from the CA Post:

Gov. Gavin Newsom said on Monday that the US Department of Justice is investigating him and his family in an explosive social media post.

Newsom said that federal investigators are looking into the activities of the governor, his wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, and family members as an act of political retaliation as the leader of California weighs a run for president after terming out of office at the beginning of next year.

“In recent days, federal agents have knocked on the doors of family, friends, and former employees, not because they found a crime, because they’re simply trying to find one,” Newsom said in a video posted to X.

“They’re demanding records, they’re abusing the grand jury process, digging through years and years of random documents. Donald Trump isn’t just coming after me because of my mean tweets, he’s coming after me because I’m considering running for president, because he hates that I’ve consistently called him out over and over again for his lies and deceit.”

Newsom accused President Trump of directing the DoJ to investigate him and his family in an act of alleged political retaliation.

77 Obama wanted to put Garland on SCOTUS and Mitch McConnell blocked it. Why? He'd fit right in Alito and Thomas.

Do you think that convicting Trump would have made a difference? The idiots would have still voted for him. The problem isn't Garland, it's Americans.

He's hiding somewhere living the high life thanks to the money he got from oligarchs for sinking trump's criminal cases.

Merrill was def a republican. Biden was an absolute fool for appointing him AG. IMO Kamala Harris should have been AG instead of VP. She would have been brilliant.

The important thing to understand about Merrick Garland is that he claims to be a religious Jew but is actually a radical Zionist.

He wouldn’t want to be perceived as potentially being slightly critical of Trump so therefore he’s taken a lifetime vow of cowardice. People need to make his life miserable.

91 OT, but some news on the MOU with Iran

Andrew Kolvet
@AndrewKolvet
3h
🚨JUST IN: Was just on a media briefing call with a senior US officials who confirm the MOU with Iran has been signed and outlines the following from their POV:

"In general terms, the deal says if you're willing to behave like a normal country, we're willing to treat you like a normal country. It's performance based."

- Strait of Hormuz is open, but it will take a few weeks to get travel back to normal.

[AND just selected points]

- The nuclear talks are described as "technical" in terms of how to retrieve the enriched uranium.

- Stressed this is not "pay for play." They will not get access to markets or release of their funds just for showing up for a meeting.

- "We go in very clear-eyed" that Iran has been a bad faith actor in negotiations for 47 years: "Everything will be verified... all released assets and sanction relief is tied to milestones."

- The US will keep the current military force posture for now to make sure Iran "does what they say they're going to do." The deal contemplates a partial draw down upon the signing of the nuclear deal."

REVEALED: How shadowy unit of government 'thought police' set up by ex-MI6 agent is trying to keep a lid on Britain's simmering racial tensions

While the streets of Belfast were ablaze with anti-immigration protests last week, behind the scenes a group of spies, spinners and soldiers were deploying the 'dark arts' to try to defuse tensions.

The name of the secretive Government propaganda unit trying to manipulate events makes it sound like an innocuous back-office operation -- the Research, Information and Communications Unit, or RICU.

169 'He's coming after my wife, Jen, a public servant, a woman who's dedicated her life to supporting women and girls, someone who has done nothing wrong other than having the temerity to advocate for what she believes in,' the Governor says in the clip.

I saw it. I agree with your assessment it's weird as hell. I only see a normal rope, no bungee. I don't know why that is. If it's fake, a lot of people are fooled.

Posted by: Elric The Blade at June 15, 2026 03:21 PM (iFTx/)

It’s real.
The guys who threw her off the bridge ran for it as soon as the clip was over and the police eventually caught them.

Right before she is thrown over some of the people there were yelling that the rope wasn’t attached, which is when the camera pans down to the coiled cord on the bridge.

Seems they were far too excited carrying this girl and completely forgot about the cord, and/or they were drunk/high which is entirely possible as this wasn’t some professional setup.

181 154 Speaking of climbing accidents, I’ve recently gotten fascinated all over again with Everest. I read Into Thin Air when it first came out (97 IIRC) and last month was the 30th anniversary of that disaster…. Krakauer’s book has aged well IMO… he recently released a revision and wasn’t shy about admitting previous errors… but his fundamental conclusions from 30 years ago still hold. The most important: If you want to live then don’t climb Everest….

And he is happy to take the credit! But there is a rest of the story. He promised Merrick he would support his nomination after the election, believing strongly Hillary would win. In the end, Merrick was told he would be on SCOTUS. But…..TRUMP dun dun dunnnnnnnn!

187 So Stephen Greene just linked the JustTheNews article above.

I have never seen him link JTN, so likely he saw the Ace post and then linked the article, not giving any credit to Ace.

Makes sense since I have seen Ace say slightly negative things about greene (I think about his Ukr cheerleading), and now it seems justified.

There is an image of the girl on the ground. (no gore.)

Also, it seems like the video is recorded from a guy sitting behind them. Almost as if he is the guy overseeing it all and making sure the rope is in place, but he was too busy recording it on his phone.

Maybe they were just aware of their audience, and only giving the one argument that might sway an unamenable authority. I don't believe it, but if they vigorously claimed it, I'd sit and listen and let them present evidence in their defense.
