Greene introduces impeachment articles against Garland.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene Introduces Articles of Impeachment Against Attorney General Merrick Garland

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is not backing down from her efforts to hold government officials accountable. One day after announcing her plans to impeach two other officials, she introduced articles of impeachment against Attorney General Merrick Garland.

Allegations Against Garland

In the articles of impeachment, Greene alleges that Garland is “facilitating the weaponization and politicization of the United States justice system against the American people.” She accuses him of failing to uphold his oath and overseeing a denigration of the principles of our democratic republic by politicizing the Department of Justice.

Instances Cited

Greene cites several instances for why she believes Garland must be impeached, including accusing him of refusing to prosecute “Antifa and Black Lives Matters rioters” and “leftist extremists that harassed and threatened Supreme Court Justices,” among other accusations. She also accuses Garland of pursuing justice with a partisan bias, alleging that he refused to charge the Biden family and its associates “for the crimes they have committed at the expense of the American people.”

Greene’s Statement

“Since Merrick Garland took over as Attorney General in March of 2021, he has completely weaponized the Department of ‘Injustice.’ The politicization of the DOJ has resulted in the persecution of the left’s political enemies, and a two-tiered justice system,” Greene said in a statement. She also accused Garland and the Department of Justice of committing “election interference” by “persecuting” former President Donald Trump.

Impeachment Week

Greene has been touting the past week as “impeachment week” after she introduced articles of impeachment against FBI Director Christopher Wray and U.S. Attorney Matthew Graves. “Under Wray’s watch, the FBI has intimidated, harassed, and entrapped American citizens that have been deemed enemies of the Biden regime. As such, Director Wray has turned the FBI into Joe Biden and Merrick Garland’s personal police force,” Greene said in a statement on Tuesday.

Conclusion

Greene’s efforts to hold government officials accountable have been met with both support and criticism. Regardless of the outcome, her actions serve as a reminder that elected officials are not above the law and must be held accountable for their actions.
