Die Kommission ist befugt, gemäß Artikel 264 delegierte Rechtsakte zu erlassen, die Folgendes betreffen: Speaker Mike Johnson announced on Friday that the House plans to take legal action to enforce the subpoena against Attorney General Merrick Garland in order to access President Joe Biden’s special counsel audio interview. This decision came after the Justice Department declined to prosecute Republicans who charged Garland with contempt of Congress. Johnson criticized the Biden Administration’s Justice Department for not prosecuting Garland, despite prosecuting Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro for the same offense. “This illustrates once again the dual system of justice implemented by the Biden Administration.” Earlier on Friday, a Justice Department official wrote a letter to Johnson mentioning the agency’s consistent stance on not prosecuting officials who refuse to comply with subpoenas due to a president’s executive privilege claim. Last month, the Democratic president invoked executive privilege to prevent the release of the audio, which the White House believes Republicans are seeking for political reasons. Despite the opposition from Republicans, they proceeded with the contempt action on Wednesday against Garland for not handing over the recording. Assistant Attorney General Carlos Felipe Uriarte mentioned that past administrations from different parties have chosen not to prosecute in comparable situations involving claims of executive privilege. As a result, the Justice Department will not present the congressional contempt citation to a grand jury or pursue legal action against the Attorney General, according to Uriarte’s letter to Johnson. The advertisement did not mention the individual at the Justice Department who made the decision. Republicans were angry when special counsel Robert Hur chose not to charge Biden for his handling of classified documents and promptly launched an investigation.
