Merrick Garland: “Let me address recent unfounded attacks on the professionalism of the FBI and Justice Department agents and prosecutors.…”

The obligation of the Justice Department is to protect the American people against violence and threats of violence and that particularly includes public officials.

The Justice Department follows the facts and the law.

People want to work, and put yourself in the shoes of a 42-year-old woman who's just been a retail clerk her whole career or a waitress and got put out of work in COVID.

These repeated attacks on the Justice Department are unprecedented and they are unfounded.
