   Attorney General Merrick Garland is facing growing political pressure   
   to enforce federal law that prohibits picketing outside of Supreme   
   Court justices’ homes for the purpose of influencing a decision.    
      
   Federal U.S. code 1507, states that any individual who "pickets or   
   parades" with the "intent of interfering with, obstructing, or impeding   
   the administration of justice, or with the intent of influencing any   
   judge, juror, witness, or court officer" near a U.S. court or "near a   
   building or residence occupied or used by such judge, juror, witness,   
   or court officer" will be fined, or "imprisoned not more than one year,   
   or both."   
      
   Cut!   
      
   The DOJ's hands-off approach has left critics baffled.   
      
   Former Trump administration Attorney General Bill Barr told Fox News   
   Digital that the "law is crystal clear" and that "protests at a judge’s   
   residence to influence a judge is a federal crime, and the law should   
   be enforced."

   Here we have an AG refusing to enforce federal law.  There is only one   
   solution, impeachment.  Will Pelosi bring articles of impeachment   
   against the AG?  No.   
      
   The Republicans have a lot of work to do this fall.
