DOJ Shows Resistance to House Republicans’ Investigations; GOP Says Department Is ‘Scared’
Breitbart ^ | 21 Jan 2023 | ASHLEY OLIVER

Posted on 01/21/2023 6:33:02 PM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

The Department of Justice (DOJ) told the Republican-led House Judiciary Committee on Friday “it may not always be possible” to comply with the committee’s investigative requests.

“While we will work diligently to accommodate requests for public testimony, it may not always be possible to participate or to address all the topics the Committee wishes to raise,” Carlos Uriarte, the assistant attorney general for the Office of Legislative Affairs, wrote to committee chair Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) in a letter obtained by Breitbart News.

Republicans’ requests “must be weighed against the Department’s interests in protecting the integrity of its work,” Uriarte noted.

The DOJ foreshadowing an inability to fully cooperate with the committee comes after Jordan contacted the department this past week, in his first communication since becoming committee chairman, to formally request documents, communication, and testimony from numerous DOJ officials.

Jordan’s requests pertained to the committee’s investigations into DOJ’s handling of certain parents attending school board meetings, its role in the southern border crisis, its raids on Mar-a-Lago and Project Veritas employees’ residences, its implementation of the FACE Act (the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act), its execution of January 6 investigations, and other concerns about “alleged politicization and bias.”

Democrats run the DOJ and the DOJ is just as corrupt, biased and criminal and the democrat party. Look at their hellhole cities - everything they touch turns to sh*t.

“Republicans’ requests “must be weighed against the Department’s interests in protecting the integrity of its work,” Uriarte noted.”

Where was this sentiment when the DOJ was constantly leaking to the Washington Post about Trump’s documents at Mar a Lago?
