I thought a Grand Jury was supposed to be determining this. This case is over the release of documents from an FOIA request. How can a Judge order the DOJ to charge someone, if it isn’t even part of the case he’s hearing?

That is why I asked if a GJ had to indict some one before they are charged... If so, then one could assume a GJ did just that and the judge wants to know why they aren’t charging him....

or perhaps it is just bad reporting and they meant take the case to the GJ for a vote

Precisely, this is the case filed on behalf of NcCabe for wrongful termination and violation of rights. The judge in his termination case has no business telling DOJ what and when as to their separate investigation.

I don’t know about an order to this extent, but a grand jury has a judge who is in charge of it. In other words it’s not a two part prosecutor and grand jury arrangement, it’s triangular with a judge involved all along, though not present while the prosecutor meets with the grand jury. Frankly I welcome this order. Given the events of the last week I think my previously stated view that the excruciatingly long periods of time that the DOJ investigations are taking would allow the deep state to prepare a massive preemptive or retaliatory counterstrike.
