Melissa Murray on DoJ and Bondi: ‘A Deeply Politicized Department of Justice and a President That Is Controlling Quite a Lot of It’

RUSH EXCERPT:

Murray: “Well, I mean, this is not the first time we’ve seen something like this, ari, in the wake of January 6th, we saw state bar associations moving with greater alacrity to hold the individuals who were associated with the attack on the Capitol. For example, Rudy Giuliani was disbarred. That’s where we got the majority of accountability. We saw a really slow effort to bring cases, whether they were civil cases or criminal cases in the courts. Lots of reasons for that. Obviously, in the case of the president and a criminal case, the Supreme Court was a real lag on that. But this is not unusual in a circumstance like this, where you have a deeply politicized Department of Justice and a president that is controlling quite a lot of it to see the accountability coming from private institutions who are beholden to other interests, not just the president, whether it’s corporate interests or shareholders. They have other things they have to account for,”
