Merrick Garland Claims No Double Standard of Justice in Biden's Doc Scandal

Attorney General Merrick Garland, the nation’s chief law enforcement officer, claimed on Monday his department has not applied a double standard of justice to President Joe Biden’s classified document scandal after reportedly agreeing with Biden’s personal lawyers to hide the scandal from the American people.
“We do not have different rules for Democrats or Republicans, different rules for the powerful or the powerless, different rules for the rich and for the poor, we apply the facts, and the law in each case in a neutral, non-partisan manner,” Garland alleged to reporters during a press availability at Justice Department headquarters. “That is what we always do.”
But according to establishment media reports, along with examining the timeline of events, Garland appears to have handled the Mar-a-Lago raid much differently than the investigation of Biden.
According to the Washington Post, not only did the White House and DOJ try to obscure the scandal from public view, but they also refused to divulge that the second trove of classified documents was already unearthed at Biden’s home in Wilmington when CBS News first contacted the White House about the initial leak of classified documents apparently illegally stored at the Biden Penn Center.

On January 9, the scandal was leaked to CBS News. Republican lawmakers believe if the scandal was not leaked, the American people would not know of Biden’s wrongdoing. White House officials are reportedly suspicious about how Biden’s classified document scandal was leaked to the press after only a select group of White House and DOJ officials knew about the violation.
It’s unclear why Bidn’s personal attorneys were initially searching for his illegally stashed documents. The White House and DOJ have failed to provide the initial reason or cause for the search.
Commentary:
Merrick Garland is guilty enough to have to defend himself and the DOJ.
It's obvious that the DOJ possibly felt some embarrassment - after Garland agreeing to assault Trump over docs, then hide Biden’s docs...only to have that blow up in their faces big time with the subsequent finding of docs scattered all over with some dating back to wen Biden was in the Senate.
Yet, contrary to Garland's statement, they do have double standards and apply them at every opportunity.
Tucker Carlson pointed out last night that when the FBI was finally allowed to searched one of Biden’s houses, they only searched some of the rooms—the ones Biden’s people gave them permission to search.
While Trump's lawyers couldn't even watch the search whereas Biden attorneys are deputized to search (and destroy). Just one glaring example of Garland's "equal" treatment".
