A.G. Merrick Garland Resisted Investigating Trump’s Connection to January 6: Washington Post

3 years ago by sik0fewl to c/politics

The Justice Department opted to go after Capitol rioters in a “bottom-up” strategy.

The Department of Justice delayed plans to investigate Donald Trump and his associates’ links to January 6 and attempts to overturn the 2020 election, according to a bombshell investigative report by The Washington Post.

On the one hand, I get it. The fact of the matter is Trump has a substantial part of the population at his beck and call and the MAGA Republicans will cover for Trump with accusations of political persecution.

On the other hand, they better get to it so he's on trial before the general election.
