Biden’s AG Pick Says He Has Not Spoken to President About Hunter Biden Probe
The Epoch Times ^ | February 22, 2021 | Tom Ozimek

President Joe Biden’s nominee for U.S. attorney general (, Merrick Garland), said during his Senate confirmation hearing Monday that he has not spoken with the president about the investigation into his son, ( Hunter Biden), but insisted that any Justice Department probes will be free of political interference.

Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) asked Garland if he’s talked to the President about any Hunter Biden investigations.

“I have not,” Garland replied, adding that, “the President made abundantly clear in every public statement before and after my nomination that the decisions about investigations and prosecutions will be left to the Justice Department.”

Who has he spoken to about it?

Biden obviously isn’t in command of anything, so who in the Biden/Harris cabal is coordinating the Hunter corruption whitewash?

As I recall when Obama nominated Garland for Scalia’s seat on the Supreme Court, he had a pretty left-wing track record but he projects a moderate demeanor so that was probably why Obama picked him despite his race, sex and age. Of course once he gets confirmed he may feel like it is payback time for the Republicans who refused to confirm him for the Supreme Court.

Why would he?

His actions and that of his blackmailing dad, have been
sanctioned by the deep state and Republican leaders as
well.

Nobody is pushing for an investigation.

Some things are known without being mentioned. It’s how gangsters operate when they think they may be overheard.

Hah...you’d think it would be difficult to reach around that elephant in the room to give Biden a reach-around.

He doesn't need to. It's like they can communicate telepathically...

The Bidens appear to be greedy, and loyal in spread around to only themselves. Part of what makes would be felony charges for their "deals" is spreading that laundered cash around to others who look the other way because of so.

Democrats don't like those who don't share. The time is coming for them to turn on him.

Because there isn’t really a probe. Just like Huber and Durham.

Don’t President’s interview candidates for AG. Well Duh...Of course he’s spoken to the President. His fingers were crossed and he didn’t give a time frame.

With Democrats in control, it’s interesting who they are
going after these days. Cuomo isn’t thrilled with their
focus on him.

I think you’re right. For all the talk about them having
the best leaders, we’re going to see them go after certain
of those leaders.

obama was another one that didn’t share the loot. He brought in lots of money at fundraisers but kept it all for himself. There was some grumbling among the rats and their media, but that got shut down quickly.

“Biden’s AG Pick Says He Has Not Spoken to President About Hunter Biden Probe”

But did either the President or 1st Lady dr Jill speak to you about Hunter.

“Just like Huber and Durham.”

Who?

Would this be a good time to add, “Trust Sessions” and “Trusty the Plan?”
There’s a few dead enders around. They’re not happy with their Biden success.
Isn’t installing ChiCom Joe enough for those people?
