Fox News
Attorney General Merrick Garland on Friday addressed the Jan. 15 synagogue hostage situation in Texas for the first time.
"We will not tolerate this. We will not tolerate attacks on synagogues or other houses of worship. We will not tolerate violence or threats of violence fueled by antisemitism, hatred, racism, or bigotry of any kind," Garland said during the 2022 Conference of Mayors.
Garland added that an "important part of keeping the American people safe is protecting those who serve the public from violence and unlawful threats of violence."
