1 name of itself and of the people of the United States of 

2 America, against Merrick Brian Garland, Attorney Gen3 eral of the United States of America, in maintenance and 

4 support of its impeachment against him for facilitating the 

5 weaponization and politicization of the United States jus6 tice system against the American people. 

7 The Constitution provides that the House of Rep8 resentatives ‘‘shall have the sole Power of Impeachment’’ 

9 and that the Attorney General, as a civil officer of the 

10 United States, ‘‘shall be removed from Office on Impeach11 ment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other 

12 high Crimes and Misdemeanors’’. 

13 In his conduct as Attorney General of the United 

14 States, in violation of his constitutional oath faithfully to 

15 execute the office of the Attorney General of the United 

16 States, and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, 

17 and defend, the Constitution of the United States, Merrick 

18 Brian Garland continues to materially endanger the jus19 tice system of the United States and empower President 

20 Joseph R. Biden, Jr., to persecute his political adversaries 

21 at will. 

22 ARTICLE I

23 Rather than adhering to an oath he took to defend 

24 and secure our country and uphold the Constitution when 

25 he was sworn in as Attorney General on March 11, 2021, 

26 Attorney General Garland has willingly refused to ensure

1 that the laws passed by Congress and signed by the Presi2 dent are faithfully executed. 

3 Attorney General Garland has failed to uphold his 

4 oath and has instead overseen a denigration of the prin5 ciples of our democratic republic by politicizing the De6 partment of Justice, and utilizing the Federal Bureau of 

7 Investigation as a Federal police force to punish or intimi8 date anyone who questions or opposes the current regime. 

9 Attorney General Garland issued an October 2021 

10 memorandum directing the targeting of parents by the 

11 Federal Bureau of Investigation. Garland’s memorandum 

12 was prompted by a letter to President Joe Biden by the 

13 National School Boards Association (NSBA). That letter 

14 drew comparisons between parents protesting actions by 

15 their local school boards to domestic terrorism. Attorney 

16 General Garland has declared war on American parents 

17 and the constitutional right of free speech. 

18 Attorney General Garland has disgracefully per19 mitted the Department of Justice to target people of faith 

20 and those seeking to protect the sanctity of life. Garland’s 

21 Department of Justice refused to designate violent pro22 abortion groups such as Jane’s Revenge as domestic ter23 rorist organizations. As of early May, there have been at 

24 least 85 attacks on pregnancy resource centers and 152 

25 attacks on Catholic churches since the May 2022 Dobbs

1 leak. Many of these buildings have been vandalized with 

2 threats such as, ‘‘If abortions aren’t safe, neither are 

3 you’’, making the attacks incidents of suspected pro-abor4 tion violence. 

5 Attorney General Garland has refused to prosecute 

6 leftist extremists that harassed and threatened Supreme 

7 Court Justices at their homes in the wake of Dobbs deci8 sion. 

9 Rather than focusing on prosecuting Antifa and 

10 Black Lives Matters rioters that have desecrated Amer11 ican cities and caused billions of dollars worth of public 

12 and private property damage, Attorney General Garland 

13 has overseen the persecution of Americans for partici14 pating in political protest. 

15 Attorney General Garland has taken measures to si16 lence the voices of millions of citizens of the United States 

17 by persecuting the former duly elected and lawful Presi18 dent of the United States, and Presidential candidate, 

19 Donald J. Trump. 

20 Attorney General Garland has engaged in abuse of 

21 power by becoming a tool of the Biden regime’s two-tiered 

22 justice system.

1 compatible with his duties as a civil officer of the United 

2 States. 

3 Attorney General Garland has refused to prosecute 

4 the Biden family and its associates for the crimes they 

5 have committed at the expense of the American people. 

6 Attorney General Garland, in his failure to uphold 

7 the oath he took, has, by his actions, lost the trust of citi8 zens of the United States to faithfully execute the laws 

9 of the United States without partisan bias. 

10 Attorney General Garland’s actions run counter to 

11 the steps that employees of the Executive branch must 

12 take to avoid ‘‘an appearance of loss of impartiality’’. 

13 Attorney General Garland’s failure to address the 

14 conflict of interest arising from the persecution of his em15 ployer, President Joseph R. Biden, Jr.’s, political adver16 sary, Donald J. Trump, demonstrates that he is unfit to 

17 hold the office of Attorney General. 

18 Attorney General Garland, by such conduct, has dem19 onstrated that he will remain a threat to the justice system 

20 of the United States of America if allowed to remain in 

21 office, and has acted in a manner grossly incompatible 

22 with democracy, self-governance, and the rule of law.
