Representative Ronnie Jackson has actually said because what happened was, and I find this hilarious, the Department of Justice, headed by Merrick Garland, has decided not

to prosecute Merrick Garland, who heads their department. How's that for nobody's above the law

Well, that doesn't mean he's out of the woods. See, there is something that hasn't been used since 1916

that actually could lead to the arrest and prosecution in Merrick Garland without the

Department of Justice getting involved at all. Now, Ronnie Jackson, Representative Ronnie

Jackson, former White House physician, he talked about this on Fox News

and I know it's something that the Republicans in Congress are actively considering from what I hear

From what I hear, this is something Mike Johnson is considering the Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson

So this could be huge You could see for the first time since 1916 this implemented and the Attorney General arrested and kept on under arrest until he complies with the subpoena for the Biden tapes

Let's take a look at this report and let me know what you think in the comments

All right. Speaker Mike Johnson says that the House is going to take their fight for the Biden classified documents audio tapes to court

This after Biden's Justice Department refused to prosecute its own boss. Attorney General Merrick Garland last week for contempt

The head of the DOJ, which is supposed to be split off, not politically aligned with the White House

blatantly working to protect Joe Biden and influenced the 2024 election by concealing these audio tapes of an interview with the special counsel, Robert Her

who was investigating Joe Biden's absolutely insane behavior with classified documents. Last week, the House voted to hold Garland in criminal contempt

The DOJ claim, though, that Garland's actions, quote, Do not constitute a crime

Oh, so now it's not a crime to ignore a subpoena from Congress

In a statement, Speaker Johnson calling it sadly predictable that the Biden administration's just department will not prosecute Garland

for defying congressional subpoenas, even though the department aggressively prosecuted Steve Bannon

and Peter Navarro for the same thing. Peter Navarro right now is sitting in a jail cell just so you know for the exact same thing Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson joins us now to talk about all this and sir it good to have you back on

They went after Bannon and Navarro, and their subpoenas for those two men

came from a crooked committee, as we've said before, which should have never even had subpoena power to begin with

and Navarro's in jail right now. Well, let's face it, January 6th committee was corrupt

Yeah. It was highly partisan. But we've got a real problem here in terms of Congress's oversight capabilities

We are vested in the Constitution with the responsibility to conduct oversight, hold the administration accountable

But unfortunately, Congress has allowed that power to atrophy over the decades

What Speaker Johnson now is pursuing his civil contempt, you know, so he'll go to court and try and get a court, you know, remember the third branch, to enforce their subpoena

There's actually a third type of contempt that Congress has used in the past

It's called inherent contempt. And that is where you basically send the sergeant arms to the individual who is holding Congress in contempt

and you arrest that individual until they comply with your subpoena. Now, it has been used in the House since 1916

In the Senate the last time he used it was 1935 But I think the way this is going the way that administration just completely blow off Congress and its constitutional responsibility and authority to enforce these things at some point

time, some committee is going to have to start looking at inherent contempt as well

I would love to hear Merrick Garland just explain why he won't release it. If anything, just that

Just tell us as somebody that's not supposed to be partisan aligned, why it is that you're concealing

the audio tapes of a special counsel interview with the president over his egregious behavior with classified documents

What possible answer could he have that's not corrupt? He's doing it because he can do it

He's the law. And so he believes he's above the law. And by and large, again, the way Congress has allowed his oversight, responsibilities and authority to atrophy

they'll continue to get walked over by administrations from both parties. So my suggestion for members of Congress is, yeah, pursue the civil route

But if that doesn't work, I would not rule out inherent contempt, send the sergeant arms to the homes of those individuals and arrest them until they want to comply with your lawful order
