Biden Using DOJ to Launch Criminal Investigation Into Trump

Former President Donald Trump is being investigated by the DOJ for "efforts to overturn the 2020 election results."

  • It has been alleged that Trump was involved in an alleged scheme to replace electors as a result of conversations he had.
  • Prosecutors are questioning witnesses in front of a grand jury about these conversations.

In an interview Tuesday, Lester Holt of NBC News asked if indicting a former president would "arguably tear the country apart." Garland responded, "Look, we pursue justice without fear or favor."

  • The Washington Post reported that the Justice Department may investigate two criminal matters involving Trump: "Seditious conspiracy and conspiracy to obstruct a government proceeding" and "potential fraud."

Biden had previously expressed interest in avoiding investigations of his predecessor but has since taken an angry tact when discussing the Capitol riot

  • Biden, prior to the riot but after defeating Trump in the 2020 election, reportedly told advisers he "just wants to move on." But January 6th appears to have been a bridge too far
  • The President, in a speech to the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives conference on Monday, appeared visibly angry regarding the riot

Biden continued: "And for three hours, the defeated former president of the United States watched it all happen as he sat in the comfort of the private dining room next to the Oval Office," Biden asserted.

  • "While he was doing that, brave law enforcement officers were subject to the medieval hell of being surrounded by carnage, face to face with a crazed mob that believed in the lies of the defeated president,"

Devin Nunes:

  • House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is being pressed by Truth Social CEO Devin Nunes to explain why Capitol Police failed to take extra security measures leading up to and on the day of the violence.
  • In an interview with Newsmax’s “Spicer & Co.,” Nunes discussed the issue with Kash Patel, who worked for Nunes when he was the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee.
