Merrick Garland launches legal insurrection against the United States…

Ladies and gentleman, we regret to inform you that Merrick Garland is at it again. His office just took two actions in two consecutive days that constitute a tacit legal insurrection against the United States of America.

Just yesterday, in an unprecedented move, our intrepid United States Attorney General’s office released a statement saying that the DOJ “disagrees” with the Court’s ruling securing Second Amendment concealed carry rights.

Justice Department Statement on Supreme Court Ruling on New York State Rifle & Pistol Association Inc. v. Bruen

The Department of Justice today released the following statement from spokeswoman Dena Iverson following the Supreme Court’s decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association Inc., et al. v. Bruen, Superintendent of New York State Police, et al.:

“We respectfully disagree with the Court’s conclusion that the Second Amendment forbids New York’s reasonable requirement that individuals seeking to carry a concealed handgun must show that they need to do so for self-defense. The Department of Justice remains committed to saving innocent lives by enforcing and defending federal firearms laws, partnering with state, local and tribal authorities and using all legally available tools to tackle the epidemic of gun violence plaguing our communities.”

Then, today, Old Man Merrick took things one step further. The DOJ issued yet another statement “disagreeing” with the Supreme Court, this time on their ruling against a Constitutional “right” to abortion. But this time, Merrick Garland personally issued the statement himself, which makes this escalation that much more dangerous to our Republic.

Attorney General Merrick B. Garland Statement on Supreme Court Ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization

Attorney General Merrick B. Garland today released the following statement following the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs, State Health Officer of the Mississippi Department of Health, et al. v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization et al.:

“Today, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey and held that the right to abortion is no longer protected by the Constitution.

“The Supreme Court has eliminated an established right that has been an essential component of women’s liberty for half a century – a right that has safeguarded women’s ability to participate fully and equally in society. And in renouncing this fundamental right, which it had repeatedly recognized and reaffirmed, the Court has upended the doctrine of stare decisis, a key pillar of the rule of law.

“The Justice Department strongly disagrees with the Court’s decision. This decision deals a devastating blow to reproductive freedom in the United States. It will have an immediate and irreversible impact on the lives of people across the country. And it will be greatly disproportionate in its effect – with the greatest burdens felt by people of color and those of limited financial means.

***

“But today’s decision does not eliminate the ability of states to keep abortion legal within their borders. And the Constitution continues to restrict states’ authority to ban reproductive services provided outside their borders.

“We recognize that traveling to obtain reproductive care may not be feasible in many circumstances. But under bedrock constitutional principles, women who reside in states that have banned access to comprehensive reproductive care must remain free to seek that care in states where it is legal. Moreover, under fundamental First Amendment principles, individuals must remain free to inform and counsel each other about the reproductive care that is available in other states.

“Advocates with different views on this issue have the right to, and will, voice their opinions. Peacefully expressing a view is protected by the First Amendment. But we must be clear that violence and threats of violence are not. The Justice Department will not tolerate such acts.

***

“The Justice Department will work tirelessly to protect and advance reproductive freedom.

“Under the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, the Department will continue to protect healthcare providers and individuals seeking reproductive health services in states where those services remain legal. This law prohibits anyone from obstructing access to reproductive health services through violence, threats of violence, or property damage.

“The Department strongly supports efforts by Congress to codify Americans’ reproductive rights, which it retains the authority to do. We also support other legislative efforts to ensure access to comprehensive reproductive services.

“And we stand ready to work with other arms of the federal government that seek to use their lawful authorities to protect and preserve access to reproductive care. In particular, the FDA has approved the use of the medication Mifepristone. States may not ban Mifepristone based on disagreement with the FDA’s expert judgment about its safety and efficacy.

“Furthermore, federal agencies may continue to provide reproductive health services to the extent authorized by federal law. And federal employees who carry out their duties by providing such services must be allowed to do so free from the threat of liability. It is the Department’s longstanding position that States generally may not impose criminal or civil liability on federal employees who perform their duties in a manner authorized by federal law. Additionally, the Department’s Office of Legal Counsel has determined that federal employees engaging in such conduct would not violate the Assimilative Crimes Act and could not be prosecuted by the federal government under that law. The Justice Department is prepared to assist agencies in resolving any questions about the scope of their authority to provide reproductive care.

***

“The ability to decide one’s own future is a fundamental American value, and few decisions are more significant and personal than the choice of whether and when to have children.

“Few rights are more central to individual freedom than the right to control one’s own body.

“The Justice Department will use every tool at our disposal to protect reproductive freedom. And we will not waver from this Department’s founding responsibility to protect the civil rights of all Americans.”

Of course, the DOJ has commented many times before that they are “disappointed” in a ruling, which is perfectly legitimate. However, to say the department “disagrees” with the ruling indicates that they will ignore and refuse to enforce the court’s ruling, which, to paraphrase the Democrats, is “extremely dangerous to our democracy.”

    Until the Chosen question of EXTREME OVER REPRESENTATION in all the stratums of Power is addressed in DETAIL, nothing will change. As if we have time to dick around with national level voting while the house IS ON FIRE. Even if there is another election we will get a zio shill like trump or desantis who are AFRAID to take fire as JFK did. The black flag will be hoisted in the end and you will not be left alone. Mark my words…. I am gonna have to get on BP meds…fuckers

    I am fine with this, make it clear to the smooth brains that rule of law is (and has been) dead.
    No point in putting the brakes on this train now, will love to see TX arrest some Airforce OBGYN’s for servicing on post infanticide sessions for the general populace.
    Worst thing that could happen is for them to pull back, passify the opposition, and regroup after they have more pull with Gen-Z and Gen-A.
    I think it is going to be ‘now (next decade or so) or never’ as far as overthrowing the nightmare of neo-liberal modernity.

    Thank God he is not on the court! It doesn’t really matter what he thinks of the decision.

    Garland is a special kind of fool. He lies about stare decision. If he is not lying, th n he must agree with the
    Dred Scott decision that stated that blacks were less than a whole person. Fortunately, a layer Supreme Court decision, going against Garlands stare decisis, reversed itself and corrected their error. The supreme co rut does this a lot. He willingly plays with the meaning of words.

    It’s really pretty straight-forward…the punishment for treason.

    Liberals are the worst, and hey they love killing babies and people, hence abortion and the crud jab. Its about State rights and should stay about State rights something DC does not want to happen. Wisconsin had a law on the books from 1849 that made it illegal, the Liberal Governor called a special session of the legislature to make abortion legal, and the Republican Legislature smashed the gavel in 6-seconds ending the special session. Garland is not a fool, he is EVIL.
