President Donald Trump took to Truth Social to express his agreement with Rep. Anna Paulina Luna and other House members who believe Attorney General Merrick Garland should be held in inherent contempt for defying a subpoena to provide requested information to Congress.
The push to hold Garland in contempt comes after he refused to release audio tapes of President Joe Biden’s interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur regarding his mishandling of classified documents. Despite being subpoenaed, the Department of Justice has declined to release the recorded audio, and the White House has claimed executive privilege. Luna has since promised to bring a resolution to the House floor that would hold Garland in "inherent contempt." Now, as concerns over Biden's aging have deepened, the controversy over the tapes, and what the White House and DOJ knew about his cognitive state when, has only become more pronounced.
“I AGREE with Anna Paulina Luna and the many House Members who think Merrick Garland should be held in INHERENT CONTEMPT for refusing to release the Biden Tapes even though they were subpoenaed!” Trump posted on Truth Social.
