"Garland Challenges GOP Rhetoric, Undermines Conspiracy Theories"
TL;DR Summary
Attorney General Merrick Garland defended the Justice Department against Republican accusations during a House Judiciary Committee hearing, calling claims of coordinated lawfare against Trump "conspiracy theories" and addressing false assassination claims made by Trump. Garland also resisted GOP demands to release audio of President Biden's interview with special counsel Robert Hur, arguing it would chill future cooperation with the Department. The GOP's effort to hold Garland in contempt of Congress remains uncertain due to slim margins.
