District Court Judge Dabney Friedrich - who happens to be a Trump appointee - patiently explained while throwing out the case that Garland’s memo barely says anything and there is no meaningful policy to block. In an attempt to stop the Justice Department from enforcing the memo, a group of parents from Virginia and Washington sued Garland, claiming the memo tried to silence parents who were lawfully protesting the “harmful, immoral, and racist policies of the ‘progressive’ Left” at their local schools. In 2021, Garland released a memo addressing the “disturbing spike in harassment, intimidation, and threats of violence” levied at schools. CNN reported over the weekend:Ī federal judge threw out a lawsuit on Friday from parents that accused Attorney General Merrick Garland of stifling their free speech, saying the group misunderstood a memo addressing increased harassment against schools. The trouble, of course, is that regular ol’ GOP voters don’t know they’ve been lied to, so they sometimes end up filing pointless lawsuits.
And they know that Garland and the Biden administration’s Justice Department targeted conservative parents who go to school board meetings, reality notwithstanding.
