DOJ says it won't cooperate with Republicans in House

martin said:
It should shock no one, you're right. DOJ has plotted its own course with Trump since January, 2021; must do the same with Biden. Barr let the department get politicized until he pulled back in the last months. Garland hasn't succumbed to that error.

Wrong, Marty.

The DOJ allowed Biden's lawyers, not the FBI, to collect the classified documents. (Fox guarding hen house).

The FBI, at 3:00 AM, with drawn AK's, raided Trump and went through his wife's clothes. CNN was conveniently present to record it.

Trump's lawyers were not even allowed in the building.

Poor Marty.
 
The Department of "Justice" is actually obstructing Justice.

The House has the right and duty of oversight of the Department of "Justice."

When your side ignored Congressional subpoenas and had members held in contempt of Congress, it's probably wise not to point fingers at others. Glass houses and all that.

Garland never said what the OP claims.

However, he's following proper protocol. The House will get what the House gets, and nothing more.

Time for them to get some work done.

DOJ reserves right to not cooperate with certain House GOP requests

The Justice Department is signaling that it has the right to not cooperate with Hill Republicans’ requests to peek into their ongoing investigations, a top official wrote in a letter obtained by POLITICO.

“Consistent with longstanding policy and practice, any oversight requests must be weighed against the Department’s interests in protecting the integrity of its work,” Carlos Uriarte, DOJ’s legislative affairs chief, wrote in the five-page letter. “Longstanding Department policy prevents us from confirming or denying the existence of pending investigations in response to congressional requests or providing non-public information about our investigations.”

Stonewalling worked so well for Eric Holder that he was held in contempt of congress, among other things...

Does Congress have oversight of the DOJ?

What congressional committee oversees the Department of justice?

COMMITTEE HISTORY. The Committee on the Judiciary has been called the lawyer for the House of Representatives because of its jurisdiction over matters relating to the administration of justice in federal courts, administrative bodies, and law enforcement agencies.

The MAGA GOP set the precedent by ignoring subpoenas and withholding twump's tax information.

All the GOP wants now is revenge. They're not going to get it. The GOP made their bed now they're on the other end.

How soon they forget Bill Barr, too.

Do you really want to break a long-standing policy of separation for short term political goals, Terry? How badly do you want to destroy the US government?

Did you see him twisting reality last night on Real Time?

I can't watch Maher anymore, but I was surfing and saw him interviewing Jabba The Hutt at the beginning of the show.

So...Jabba HAD to lie about the Mueller report, because the whole thing was dumped on him unredacted, and the press was screaming for a comment.

So he decided to fabricate an alternate version of the facts solely due to time constraints.

He'll always be a piece of shit. Quitting during a terrorist act doesn't negate all of the damage he did.

DOJ refused to share intel with the Jan. 6 committee, and the House did the same with the DOJ.

Now that the report is done, DOJ has everything from Jan. 6.

As is proper

Agreed. The Pedo Don fans desire to destroy the system is proof of their hatred of the United States of America.

Indeed.

The House has oversight over the "Justice" Dept.
