In Capitol Hill, the House Rules Committee is set to convene today to deliberate on advancing contempt charges against Attorney General Merrick Garland. This action stems from Garland's refusal to provide lawmakers with the audio recording of President Biden's interview with special counsel Robert Herr. Herr's investigation found that Biden mishandled classified documents, portraying him as a 'sympathetic, well-meaning elderly man with a poor memory.'
The push for contempt charges is led by the GOP and follows Garland's recent testimony before Congress. Garland, in response, emphasized that he and the Justice Department will not be intimidated.
