Merrick Garland Says DOJ Doesn’t Prosecute Antifa Attacks Because They Happen at Night

Merrick Garland is an American attorney and jurist who currently serves as the United States Attorney General. He was nominated for the position by President Joe Biden and confirmed by the Senate in March 2021.

On Wednesday, Attorney General Garland testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee and the House Judiciary Committee to discuss the Justice Department’s budget and priorities.

Garland also faced questions about the department’s handling of the recent surge in hate crimes and domestic terrorism, as well as its ongoing investigations into political corruption and white-collar crime.

According to Garland, the Department of Justice doesn’t prosecute many Antifa attacks on pro-life pregnancy centers because they frequently occur at night.

He said on Wednesday. “Those who are attacking the pregnancy resource centers … are doing this at night in the dark. These people who are doing it are clever and are doing it in secret.”
