The Department of Justice has conducted an internal investigation and allegedly found no evidence of collusion between its officials, including Joe Biden's DOJ hatchet man, Matthew Colangelo, and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office.
Bragg's top prosecutor, Matthew Colangelo, was the Former Acting Associate Attorney General for the U.S. Department of Justice and is a lifelong left-wing activist.
The Committee has demanded information from the Department because of what you describe as a "Perception that the Justice Department is" behind the District Attorney's so-called "Politicized prosecution" and a "Perception that the Biden Justice Department is politicized and weaponized" to that end.
The Department has conducted a comprehensive search for email communications since January 20, 2021, through the date of the verdict, between any officials in Department leadership, including all political appointees in those offices, and the District Attorney's office regarding any investigation or prosecution of the former President.
The District Attorney's office is a separate entity from the Department.
The Department does not supervise the work of the District Attorney's office, does not approve its charging decisions, and does not try its cases.
The Department has no control over the District Attorney, just as the District Attorney has no control over the Department.
The Department did not identify any instances of Mr. Colangelo having email communications with the District Attorney's office during his time at the Department.
Department leadership did not dispatch Mr. Colangelo to the District Attorney's office, and Department leadership was unaware of his work on the investigation and prosecution involving the former President until it was reported in the news.
As the Attorney General stated at his hearing, the conspiracy theory that the recent jury verdict in New York state court was somehow controlled by the Department is not only false, it is irresponsible.
As court filings show, both the District Attorney's office and the former President's defense team made requests for documents from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York.
