Kevin McCarthy served notice that going after Merrick Garland will blow up in his face

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

During an appearance on MSNBC's "The Cross Connection," former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner served notice to House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) that he will regret ordering an investigation of Attorney General Merrick Garland should the Republican Party take control of the House in the 2022 midterm election.

Speaking with host Tiffany Cross, Kirschner didn't hold back, accusing the Republican leader of "political thuggery" in the service of former president Donald Trump.

After MSNBC played audio, McCarthy claimed that he intends to go after Garland in light of the search of Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort which resulted in FBI agents reclaiming stolen documents that could lead to espionage charges, the veteran prosecutor said the California Republican would rue the day.

"Kevin McCarthy is engaged in political thuggery, that's all this is," Kirschner bluntly stated. "He threatened the attorney general by saying you better clear your calendar and preserve your documents."

Quit your groveling McCarthy.

1. Kirschner has been a heavyweight in plain sight these 3 or 4 years

2. i am waiting for somebody to say..

Kevin, my grandfather had the misfortune of knowing Joe McCarthy. And let me tell you--- you are no Joe McCarthy!

3. That binder of pictures in trump's safe that was recovered?

Let's see where McCarthy fits into those photos.

[Mr.Bill]

10. When I hear about photos in a safe

I think blackmail material. Why else would you keep photos on a safe?

[BComplex]

13. It's obvious to me that these must be the photos he has on the republicans

and/or his enemies. It was obvious from the first day they all changed from hating him to adoring him that he had photos. It all happened too quickly and too obviously.

[Mr.Bill]

15. And most of them turned on a dime

after a visit to Mar a Lago.

[BComplex]

17. Yep!

4. would have been appreciated if the headline said it was a pundit

"serving" notice.? really??

hardly.

sheesh.

21. I agree. I normally like Tom Boggioni's writing, but Kirschner didn't "serve notice"

He just said McCarthy is full of shit. Even if he did say McCarthy will "regret" it (and that's not a quote, nor is it in the video), then as you say, its not "serving notice" if it comes from a pundit.

5. Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin..Thanks for posting...

I LOVE Glen Kirshner!

I watch his YouTube videos, Justice Matters, pretty much every time he puts them out which may be everyday.

JUSTICE MATTERS!

6. After a threat like that, if I were Merrick Garland

I would start a closer look at Kevin McCarthy.

[Duppers]

7. Indeed! 👍

[bluestarone]

8. YEP! check, check, and double check!

McCarthy needs to be in prison, same room as TFG! They deserve each other. Right next door to Cruz!

[usaf-vet]

20. Exactly. He would be no threat to ANYONE sitting in a coner of his cell wimpering hoping that Bubba

....won't show up at his cell door.

9. Does McCarthy give a shit as to what a tv pundit has to say?

[bahboo]

19. nope...

[Hortensis]

12. Yada-yada. The GOP has relied extremely heavily on fake investigations

pushing "THE ALLEGATION IS THE CRIME" for 30 years now. Hillary's emails!

Tell a lie enough times, and critical percentages will believe it. Hillary's emails.

They're not about to stop because they always have a stock of false allegations ready to choose among, tweak and spread across the nation in virtual moments. "Hillary's emails" is a tool that has brought us to the edge of the abyss, but they still have to get us to pull our nation over.

14. McCarthy won't take the advice

First, I don't think GOP will retake the House. But if they do, investigating Garland will be a big waste of time. Besides they would be too busy trying to impeach Biden.

16. th gop has already established that subpoenas can be ignored

if the gop takes the house and tries to investigate everyone under teh sun all biden has to do is claim executive privledge.
plus if anyone ignores a subpoena all that the house could do is refer any so called contempt citations to garland at the justice department where im sure they will give it teh consideration it deserves
