Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed a special counsel in the criminal investigation of Hunter Biden, signaling a wider probe of President Joe Biden’s son ahead of the 2024 presidential election.
Garland announced Friday that he is elevating David Weiss, the U.S. attorney in Delaware who has led the Hunter Biden investigation for five years, to special counsel status.
Garland, delivering a surprise statement from the Justice Department headquarters, said Weiss informed him on Tuesday that “his investigation had reached a stage at which he should continue his work as a special counsel” and asked for the appointment.
“Upon considering his request, as well as the extraordinary circumstances relating to this matter, I have concluded that it is in the public interest to appoint him as special counsel,” Garland said.

Weiss couldn't do in 5 years what a Republican Congress did in 6 months. GREAT JOB GARLAND!!!!
WHO POLICES THE Attorney General? HE'S A CORRUPT SLEAZEBAG PLUS, THAT'S WHY GARLAND WAITED UNTIL CONGRESS, AND ALL THE REPUBLICANS, WERE OUT OF SESSION BEFORE DOING THIS. GARLAND AND BIDEN WILL MANUFACTURE SOME OTHER NEWS STORY (WAR WITH IRAN?) SO YOU WILL FORGET ABOUT THIS.
Here comes the cover up crew, enforcing thier two tier justace system.
Isn't it funny how all of a sudden the DOJ appoints " special council " for a man that had nothing to do with the government….or so they say….but he needs this special council to keep hiding the truth from the people….Garland is a turd everyone can smell from 500 yards away.
THE FIX IS IN!!
It's time for AG Garland to also do the same to the Trump family especially Jared!!!
You can bet it’s special all right special to get him off the hook just like everything else is done for this democrat Cabal what are corrupt bunch of horrible people
I see what he's doing there/er here. But even with "Equal protection under the law" I don't think the optics are strong enough.
Special C,,,,,,,should be brought forward by Rep not Demo-rats…….. corruption off the hook.
All the abilities a special counsel has, Weiss had during his last four years of already investigating Hunter, so why is this needed again Meek Garland? This would have been a good time for Garland to appoint another Special Counsel for Jared and Ivanka in applying the rule of law "Evenly" "Without Fear or Favor." But no, how would this look if I apply the rule of law to Republicons, Garland most likely contemplated.
Lock him up!
9 post made, only 2 showing. Censorship at it best.
Garland appointed the same exact prosecutor that refused to prosecute Hunter last month.
He offered Hunter immunity from all future crimes, instead.
The US corruption LLC hires corrupt officials to investigate corrupt officials 😂 a clown world indeed
INVESTIGATE GARLAND, FAUCI, PELOSI AND THE ENTIRE BIDEN CRIME FAMILY!
Lock him up
