The Department of Justice is defying a request from the House Oversight Committee, refusing to turn over the prosecution file in the criminal case against conservative filmmaker and author Dinesh D'Souza, who pleaded guilty to a charge that he had used straw donors to make campaign contributions to a Senate campaign.
In a letter dated Dec. 22, 2015, House Oversight Committee chairman Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, and Rep. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., chairman of the Subcommittee on National Security, requested that Preet Bharara, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, turn over to the committee the prosecutionâs file in United States v. Dinesh D'Souza, 14 CR 045 (RMB), by no later than Dec. 28, 2015.
To date, the Department of Justice has not handed over the file.
In a House Oversight Committee hearing held in Washington Tuesday, DeSantis questioned Peter J. Kadzik, DOJ assistant attorney general for legislative affairs, about the refusal to comply with the request of the House committee.
In response to a direct question by DeSantis about whether or not the Department of Justice planned to turn over the case file, Kadzik indicated DOJ was willing to come and brief the committee on the issue, but had no plan to turn over to the committee the prosecution case file as requested.

Cover-up in progress.
Sarcasm?
