Merrick Garland: “Today, the Justice Department has filed suit against the state of Texas for violating Section 2 of the Voting Rights…”

I will not be intimidated, and the Justice Department will not be intimidated.

You have worked to pursue justice, not politics.

How those inflammatory claims stand up against the actual facts.
