**Biden DOJ: “No Constitutional Right To A Stable Climate"**

'As a heatwave scorched America with record-breaking temperatures this June, the Biden administration attempted to block a landmark climate lawsuit by declaring that “there is no constitutional right to a stable climate system,” according to court records reviewed by *The Lever*.'

#FanniWillis showing #MerrickGarland how to not just *talk* about the law, but to *enforce it*?

After 2+ years of delay by #MerrickGarland , #JackSmith has little time to waste in prosecuting #DonaldTheDeplorable for the #conspiracy to overturn the #2020election with a fraudulent scheme of #FakeElectors that culminated in the #January6th #FailedCoupAttempt.

There can be no delay in response to threats by the Organized Clown 🤡 Boss! 👉 https://www.huffpost.com/entry/prosecutors-ask-judge-to-issue-protective-order-after-trump-post-appearing-to-promise-revenge_n_64cdc197e4b0313d2fcb2199?pq

#ElieMystal on TFG #tRump indictment:
"A: The fact that Smith didn't charge the co-conspirators is a really smart move to try to get this trial going quickly
B: I just don't think the system can move fast enough to get this done before the election
... the *reason* the timeline is challenging now is that #MerrickGarland sat on his hands for a year until the J-6 committee embarrassed him and his office." ☹️😡

The real heroes in the culmination of the #January6th #Trump Indictment is #BennieThompson, Chair, #LizChaney, Co-Chair and the entire #January6thCommittee. If not for them, #MerrickGarland probably would have continued to drag this case on interminably.

Amee Vanderpool: Attorney General Merrick Garland just issued a statement on the street in Philadelphia, saying that Jack Smith and his team have followed the law and that all questions need to be addressed to him. https://youtu.be/h3y0Dh2MkgE #MerrickGarland #TrumpIndictment #Jan6

The only good move #MerrickGarland made in his two and a half years in office, was putting #JackSmith on #TrumpsEspionage, who brought indictments within 6 months. MG was weak and his fear of being branded “political” to bring Trump and his Allie’s to justice will probably cause these cases to go to trial after the election.

Not surprising but still disappointed by #DOJ #MerrickGarland & #LisaMonaco. #POTUS45 is now a private citizen who unethically attacked, defamed federal agents - one of Garland & Monaco's subordinates.

Trump isn’t running FOR president.
He’s running FROM justice.

While Trump runs from the truth to keep some distance between himself and prison, DeSantis runs Florida to put some distance between himself and the state’s mosquitoes.

@staidwinnow ⬆️
I hope #MerrickGarland made the same observations concerning the #Prigozhin deal with #Putin.

And then, Attorney General Garland settled into his seat, sighed, leaned back, and calmly demanded, “Release the Kraken.”

by #ElieMystal in #TheNation:

"On Monday morning, The Washington Post published a devastating story about attempts by leadership at the Department of Justice—including, most notably, Attorney General Merrick Garland, Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco, and FBI Director Chris Wray—to avoid prosecuting Donald Trump. The story exposes how the DOJ quashed efforts to aggressively pursue Trump and other politically connected Republicans for their roles in attacking the Capitol on January 6, 2021, and instead adopted a more 'cautious' approach aimed at avoiding the appearance of partisanship. Garland, it would seem, cared more about appearing fair (to Republicans) than seeking justice against the Republicans who tried to overthrow the government."

by #BradReed @RawStory:

"Although Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray were not the ones who quashed the plan by prosecutors, they did embrace the strategy that critics of the plan recommended by holding the rioters themselves and then slowly moving up the chain if the evidenced justified doing so."

⚖️ #AG #MerrickGarland told a news conference in #Minneapolis Friday morning, the city's Police Department engaged in discriminatory "patterns and practices" against Black and Native American people that persisted even after "reforms" were implemented.

You can read that story elsewhere.

The #ABCNews report by #AlexanderMallin contains this sentence about a racist cop-stop:

"In one stop of a car *full of four Somali American teens*..."

A car *full of* four people? Really? Subtle, but racist.
