garland: no. you have to be a united states citizen, you have to meet the qualifications for that to be a voter. it's important that only those people vote. mr. clyde: how do you prove that? if you don't require i.d.? you require i.d. to get on an airplane. they are not going to let you on an airplane. [talking simultaneously] mr. garland: i have voted every year my entire life and i've never been asked to show an identification. mr. clyde: i've always been asked to show identification. wow. ag garland: somehow democracy goes on without that. mr. clyde: do you believe that illegal aliens residing in the united states should be allowed to vote in federal elections? yes or no? mr. garland: no. mr. clyde: all right, great, we agree on something. other than u.s. citizens, are there any other legitimate voters? mr. garland: you have to be a u.s. citizen to vote. mr. clyde: you must be a u.s. citizen. ok, great. i ask unanimous consent to add this to the record, mr. chairman. thank you, sir. this is a p

garland: yes. just at a high level of generality because i don't want to talk about matters i can't talk about in an open session. but we do have investigations, financial investigations with respect to hamas which we have had for a number of years. october 7 as the f.b.i. director noted in his testimony, has raised our threat level considerably with respect to concerns of foreign terrorist organizations like hamas. that might foment problems in the united states. that includes not only hamas, but hezbollah, the iranian quds force, isis, isis-k. various sects, branches of al qaeda. we are concerned and are making sure all of our joint terrorism task forces are on the lookout for these matters since october 7. there was a heightened concern before october 7, but obviously october 7 has only redoubled our concern here. mr. aderholt: i yield back. chair rogers: mr. ruppersberger. mr. ruppersberger: thank you, mr. chairman. ranking member. attorney general garland, first thing i want to say i think you

one thing we have seen making center stage is the effort to hold attorney general merrick garland in contempt of congre some folks think this may be an offramp for republicans leading the impeachment inquiry and saying we held him in contempt to shift the spotlight off of impeachment and ontoo give some back story on that. lastly, the house judiciary mmtee in the house oversight committee advanced a resolution along ines to hold merit garland in contempt of congress. the issue that republicans have with garland's that they have requested thaucording of president biden's interview with counsel robert hurt who was looking intocuments. can that final report come he says he would not chargehe president with any crimes for his handling of less of i documents that there was a little aside about the president's mental acuity, saying he was acting -- i'm paraphrasing, but in old them a good-natured old man and that's why this -- why they decided not to charge him. republicans of as for the recording of i which the justice department has not given up. the justice department has provided a tra

thank you, attorney general garland for being here today. i view these annual preparation hearings is similar to an annual investor brief. we get to talk to you about what's going on in the organization. the money you are asking for past performance, the path forward. i don't think most americans know what the department of justice does. i don't think most americans know if the attorney general does. i want on your website and just printed out the mission statement. the mission statement of the department of justice is to uphold the rule of law and keep our country safe, and to protect civil rights. pretty straightforward, pretty simple. you have been in office 2021. you report directly to the president. and you know your mission. for your investors, the american taxpayers, how would you rate your performance over the last three years relative to that mission? >> well i would grade the work of our -- >> i am talking about you, attorney general. with all due respect to you and your team, i have all the respect in the world for the agents in t

garland, who is that attorney generalized speak of and who spoiler alert sox was.recall president obama's pick for the supreme court in 2016 after the clintons murder justice scalia with a pillar and while our government dysfunctiocontinues to grow, one thing remained sacrosanct when a supreme court justice dies, the president gets to fill the seat. until mitch mcconnell said that new rule, you garland never even got a hearing so when biden got elected, the democrat said wouldn't it be funny as payback if we gave garlin the attorney general job? and that's how we got attorney general barney five a man who epitomizes the strange stupor that comes over. democrats whenever they have to choose a top law man, they worry so much about appearing nonpartisan. they get behind someone who let's actual crimes go on punished five years ago in this space, i was tearing robert molar and one. remember him, the straight arrow republican all the democrats thought would hold trump accountable for colluding with russia. but with molar as with garlin. now when we needed a pitbull, we

governor is very much a part of this and garland justice department is opposed to it somewhat like in texas they had to bring in their own guards and rangers, and put up chicken wire. the bidens will not do anything about it. >> what states are doing is correct. they have a responsibility to retek their -- protect their citizens if federal government is not doing their job, founds of this nation, states would have never ratified constitution if federal government could ignore the lay, that is happening in united states today, joe biden ignores the law, merrick garland does nothing to keep joe biden accountable to the law. and what is happening is they are criminalizing other states that want to inforce the law, and -- enforce the lay and criminalizes chief political rival in donald trump, they must be defeated, garland has to go, the job of the administration is to execute federal law. not go around it. not ignore it. and not create new law that never existed in the first place. that is why america is crumbling before our eyes. larry: anna, you want to bus merrick garland. >> yes, we'

merrick garland you and i both know american garlands spent 24 years as a judge.good reputation is court of appeals would judge some glimmer of hope proven to be the most partisan and the most a while was in our nations history but you are right. this administration of said a number of times. donald trump broke the democrat party. they hate him so much their minds have been shattered and they have convinced themselves that trump is adolf hitler. trump is hitler anything, anything, anything is justified to stop him. you talked about these ridiculous trials. in over 200 years never once and former president in our entire history and this past year we've done so for chimes every one of these cases is number one because they hate donald trump number two it is an assault on the american people. it is an assault on democracy actually think sigmund freud is rolling over in his grave because the democrats and agent freudian protection at a level i have never seen where they beat their chests they say we are defending democracy. they are engaged at an assault on democracy.

but with molar as with garland. now, when we needed a pitbull, we got a purse dog it's so interesting when it comes time for republicans to appoint a special prosecutor. they always appoint a republican. and when it comes time for democrats to a 0.1, they also appoint a republican a democrat hasn't served as a special prosecutor in a major investigation since watergate somehow the role became, it has to be a republican or it's not fair. you know dudley do right type like what molar or james comey remember him? a boy scout, they said, yeah, he was a boy scout. alrighty gave me and not in the stomach because he threw the presidency to trump by making a big announcement 11 days before the election that he was reopening the case into hillary's emails, and then found nothing. but the fbi was also investigated just saying the problem the problem the problem with this case isn't that trump is guilty. >> it's that it's being tried in the wrong court. if garland had done his job, trump would be in federal court charged with

attorney general merrick garland. >> good morning. earlier today the department of justice joined by 29 states and the district of columbia, sued live nation entertainment and its wholly owned subsidiary ticketmaster for violating the sherman antitrust act. in recent years, live nation, ticketmasters exorbitant fees and technological failures have been criticized by fans and artists alike. but we are not here today because live nation ticketmaster's conduct is inconvenient or frustrating. we are here because as we allege that conduct is anticompetitive, and illegal. our complaint makes clear what happens when a monopolist dedicates its resources to entrenching its monopoly power and insulating itself from competition, rather than investing in better products and services. we allege that live nation has illegally monopolized markets across the industry in the united states for far too long. it is time to break it up. live nation ticketmaster has made itself ubiquitous in the live entertainment industry. it controls at least 80% of prim

lastly, the house judiciary committee in the house oversight committee advanced a resotig pat garlandn contempt of congress. the issue that republicans have with garland's that they have of president biden'sh special counsel robert hurt who was looking into biden's mishandling of classified documents. can that final report come he saysnot arge the president with any crimes for his handling of less of i docume there was a little aside about the president's mental acuity, saying he wa acting -- i'm paraphrasing, but in old them a good-natured old man and that's why this -- why they decided not to charge him. republicans of as forhe recording of the interview which the justice department has not given up. the justice department has provided a transcript of the interviews between garland and herr but republicans are still seeking the audio recording. now republicans arein in contemt remains unclear when they will vote on holding garland in content and remains unclear if it will pass have such a small majority. it really has no room for error. the really has been a less focus impeachment a

now, garland was the subject of a contempt vote today in the judiciary committee. watch this. >> the record arings are necessary if -- recordings are necessary. the transcripts alone are not sufficient evidence of the state of the president's memory, frankly, because the white house has a track record of altering the transcripts. >> reporter: jordan didn't give specific examples, multiple specific examples there. attorney general garland answered a question about contempt today when i asked him. watch. >> we have gone to extraordinary lengths to insure that the committees get responses to their he visit mat requests -- legitimate requests. but this is not one. to the contrary, this is one that would harm our ability in the future to to successfully pursue sensitive investigations. if. >> reporter: jackie, in about two hours the house oversight committee will meet to hold a markup on contempt. they will vote in their committee tonight. it was originally supposed to be at 1 1:00 this morning, but several members headed to the manhattan trial of former president donal

there is no interference from merrick garland. this is the version for their failed impeachment of president biden. aishah: is there a clear conflict of interest when it comes to garland, trying to protect the president? >> one hundred% there's a conflict of interest. at the end of the day even though he named a special prosecutor, garland makes the ultimate decisions so a couple things because democrats are saying they released the transcript of biden's interview with his offer where he was openly talking about having classified documents, deliberately pointing out they were in the basement and talking to his arthur about it. he should be convicted but it is garland, charged at least, what we want our the actual audiotapes because we are not confident the transcriptions were one hundred% accurate. there's things in there that are labeled as inaudible, we want to see what those were. at the end of the day you get the tone, the tenor, the full context and picture and i have seen those classified documents that were sitting in biden

i wanna thank you so much for joining our panel. garland next and steve gill and steve hayes. i think it is foolish to say the economy cannot be predicted. granted, a crisis can always have an effect, but in modern times, the responsible action would be to be prepared rather than soley reactionary. if we have learned anything over the past few years, when it seems we have overcome one crisis, there's going to be another one just around the corner. the difference is if a politician uses the crisis at the moment for their own benefit printing and releasing a large amount of money with little accountability to the public. might when you vote in the short term, but creates an economic mess, which sadly is felt longer by the people and it presents terminal i've got now here's into spinning your 360 view for watching the water is part of the, the employee was posted. isn't the, the place you of us and that in the word part, is it something deeper, more complex might be present? let's stop without cases. let's go out of the as the, the, what day? adoption the tv. if it's the thing, y

what's garland being accused of now?ered and i am paided their impeachment inquiry into president biden. how? well, by withholding an audio recording of the conversation with special council robert hur. lawmakers say they subpoenaed the attorney general to provide the materials on a number of occasions but were refused justice department turned over numerous documents and special council interviews has lit toll do with gop impeachment i nquiries and republicans are now deciding whether to move forward with a resolution and holds garland in contempt to the full house floor. stu. stuart: thanks, ashley. later, we have king charles n amed prince william of colonel in chief of army air corp.. that's prince harry's old military regiment. that's a slap in the face to harry. we have it covered. president biden pledged over a trillion to fund infrastructure and green energy projects but only spent a small portion of the money. is he going on a spending blitz before the election? we have a report from the white house next. stuart

attorney general garland: the special counsel brought both cases last year. he appropriately requested speedy trials. the manner is now in the hands of the judiciary. i can't comment any further. [captions copyright national cable satellite corp. 2024] [captioning performed by the national captioning institute, which is responsible for its caption content and accuracy visit ncicap.org] >> the house judiciary committee is considering a resolution to hold the attorney general in contempt of congress for denying their request to get the audio reportings from the d.o.j. investigation into president biden and his handling of classified documents. we take you live now to the committee meeting under way. we are hearing from jeff van drew of new jersey. mr. van drew: this committee feels that it needs an audio transcript because the charges, the concerns are so serious. i want everybody to understand. we are either saying that our current president is in-- cognitively impaired, incompetent, unable to stand trial even though he broke the law so the department of justi

i understand merrick garland has now taken from's comments very seriously, so what was his response? >> that's exactly right, alex. jack smith overnight filing the first of its kind motion in this specific case, the classified documents case, alluding of course or concerning the search that happened at mar-a-lago two years ago in august 2022, when authorities grabbed hundreds of classified documents that were in the possession of the former president illegally. so you have overnight jack smith actually asking the judge overseeing that case, judge eileen cannon, to limit, to impose a sort of modified gag order on what donald trump can and cannot say when it comes to law enforcement, in terms of the public statements that he makes. this comes of course after this week the former president falsely insinuated that president joe biden may have ordered an assassination attempt on him when fbi agents were conducting that search. he said, quote, that bidens locked and loaded, referring to that specific remark. so of course you have merrick garland and the fbi pushing back on these claims tha

i hope garland reed thanks this and allows this to come to the public sphere. share my thought we don't get this audit was certainly not the election for the may be legal fights that get you there. >> it's up to supporting but garland's role here. this is a cynical move. he knows there is no credible argument to be made for privilege and somehow this is the president who shall not be heard. even though you release the transcript it's ridiculous on its face but garland also knows any litigation of this question will go beyond the election. it is exactly what garland said he wouldn't do. this is a politics raw and simple. shannon: i want to get quick reaction from you guys that your times is a 3-year-old picture from the alito's home showing a flag being flown upside down in january of 2021. i spoke with justice alito this week and got the backs or there's clearly heated back-and-forth with a neighbor who he said called mrs. a lead of the seat worksheet hung the flight upside down he had nothing to do with it was there fofor short time. senator dick durbin chairs

general garland, it is good to have you here. thanks for your time. i want to focus on something that have not been questions about so far. the prisons. i understand according to the bureau of prison website, there are less than 35,000 employees to ensure the security of all the federal prisons and services that include 156,000 federal inmates. what is the euro prison taking for the gaps for leader training for the officers? is there a reason that the bureau prisons correction leaders have not participated in the prison fellowship warden exchange? it is offered without cost to the federal government. >> i do not know about the letter question. the rest i will be happy to have the staff look at. i will have the warning get in touch with you. we have the pandemic that delayed bureau prisons ability to provide in-person training. the bop has since resumed many in-person trainings and is trying to clear the backlog in that respect. you are right with respect to the number of employees we have in the bureau prisons. it is not sufficient. not either for nec
