In his first public comments since the FBI searched President Biden’s Delaware home, AG Merrick Garland rebutted complaints that investigators have been less confrontational in how they handled Biden's classified docs case vs. Trump's.
Earlier this month, Merrick Garland appointed a special counsel to determine whether laws were broken in connection with the presence of the apparently-classified records at the Penn Biden Center and later at Joe Biden's Delaware home.
“We do not have different rules for Democrats or Republicans, different rules for the powerful or the powerless, different rules for the rich and for the poor, we apply the facts, and the law in each case in a neutral, non-partisan manner,” Garland told reporters during a press availability at Justice Department headquarters. “That is what we always do.”
Asked if he had any regrets about the way the matters had been handled thus far, Garland called the law enforcement decisions “appropriate” and unaffected by politics.
