A House Republican spoke on Sunday about employing inherent contempt of Congress to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland “accountable” for refusing to share audio from the classified documents probe against President Joe Biden.
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo about her resolution that, if enacted, could lead to the House sergeant-at-arms taking Garland into custody if the attorney general continues to defy congressional subpoenas.
“What that allows Congress to do is really be the punitive arm and really hold Garland accountable by using the sergeant at arms to essentially go and get him, as well as the tapes, bring him to the well of the House,” Luna said.
