RE: Joe Biden can sign an executive order tomorrow that rescinds CFR Section 600 and all its provisions entirely.

Sure he can, but that act in itself in the midst of a Congressional investigation would be similar to Nixon’s Saturday Night Massacre. Definitely Grounds for impeachment.

But this thread is about MERRICK GARLAND, not YET about Joe Biden.

The Attorney General cannot ignore the Code of Federal Regulations. The Code of Federal Regulations is a set of rules and regulations that are created by federal agencies to implement and enforce laws passed by Congress. These regulations have the force of law and must be followed by all individuals and entities subject to them, including the Attorney General.

If the Attorney General were to ignore the Code of Federal Regulations, it would be considered a violation of their responsibilities and duties. The Code of Federal Regulations is a set of rules and regulations that have been established by federal agencies to implement and enforce laws passed by Congress. It provides guidance and instructions on how to interpret and apply the laws. Ignoring these regulations could lead to legal consequences and undermine the rule of law.

CFR Section 600 was established in 1999 by the U.S. Attorney General. It doesn’t even have the force of a formal executive order, and doesn’t bind any future administration that doesn’t want to abide by it.

I would make the case that there shouldn’t be any “Special Counsel” regulations at all. The DOJ is not a fourth branch of government that operates independently of Congress and the Executive Branch.
