Congressman Crenshaw says House must stand by as Justice Dept refuses subpoena request for Hur interview

Texas Congressman Dan Crenshaw tells reporters at a news conference on an effort to force a vote on finding Attorney General Merrick Garland in inherent contempt of Congress, which could lead to House Speaker Mike Johnson directing the Sergeant at Arms to fine or imprison him, for refusing to provide the House with audio recordings of an interview between Special Counsel Robert Hur and President Biden that the Biden administration shields its own while targeting Americans it dislikes, citing examples of perceived overreach, and argues that Congress must act to check the Department of Justice's refusal to comply with subpoenas and contempt votes.
