Garland faces criticism in House hearing…

Republicans grill Biden’s AG Merrick Garland as he defends FBI school board memo, insists parents are entitled to protest and denies calling them domestic terrorists

    • Garland is testifying before the Democrat-led committee on Thursday morning
    • Jim Jordan accused Garland of giving GOP lawmakers ‘the finger’ in response to inquiries over his memo directing the FBI to crack down on public schools
    • Another Republican lawmaker confronted him on his son-in-law’s company, Panorama Education, which has been accused of utilizing critical race theory
    • Two representatives demanded that Garland appoint a special counsel to investigate Hunter Biden and whether he’s profited off Joe Biden’s presidency
    • Rep. Ken Buck compared the prices of Hunter Biden’s artwork to the values of classic paintings by Claude Monet and Edgar Degas
    • The Judiciary committee is chaired by New York Democrat Rep. Jerry Nadler
    • Nadler’s opening statement appears to take a veiled shot at his GOP colleagues
