Attorney General Merrick Garland refuted accusations hurled at him and the Department of Justice by Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee at a hearing on Tuesday. Republicans on the committee tried to paint the DOJ as being weaponized against former president Donald Trump.
"I will not be intimidated," said Garland in the aforementioned remarks, confronting a series of "repeated attacks," along with conspiracy theories floated by Republicans concerning the Justice Department. Garland told GOP lawmakers that the Justice Department will not be shaken.
