Attorney General Merrick Garland warned of threats to U.S. democracy, citing violence including the 2021 riot at the Capitol by supporters of former President Donald Trump, rollbacks in voting rights and possible legislative efforts to overturn the outcome of elections.

Some Democrats have criticized Garland as moving too slowly or indecisively to uncover those who helped direct the assault, including the possibility of pursuing associates of Donald Trump or the former president himself.
