House Judiciary Committee Republicans voted to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress on Thursday.
The vote came after President Biden asserted executive privilege over the audio tapes of his interview with ex-special counsel Robert Hur in a move to shield Garland from criminal charges.
Republicans have seized in a line in Hur's report about the president's mishandling of classified documents stating Biden appeared to be an 'elderly man with a poor memory' and wanted audio evidence.
House Defeats Resolution Holding Garland In Contempt – Here are the Four GOPers Who Voted NO
As the Gateway Pundit previously reported, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fl) informed fellow lawmakers of her intention to introduce a resolution compelling the House sergeant at arms to detain Attorney General Merrick Garland and present him before the lower chamber.
Despite attempts by House Speaker Mike Johnson at trying to get her to delay her vote, she ultimately was able to hold it Thursday.
Now, Jake Sherman reports that the House has defeated the resolution with the help of four RINOS.
Here were the four Republicans who voted against holding Garland in contempt:
Rep. David Joyce (OH-14)
Rep. Michael Turner (OH-10)
Rep. Tom McClintock (CA-04)
Rep. John Duarte (CA-13)
The measure would have fined Attorney General Garland $10,000 per day for refusing to hand over the tapes of Special Counsel Hur’s Biden interview. Luna originally promised to direct the House sergeant-at-arms to take Garland into custody, but pivoted and delayed her move after discussing the measure with Speaker Johnson.

Interesting how the same people are constantly brought up, almost guaranteed there is an inner Party.
