AG Bondi Wants to Cut Out Middle Man in Prosecutions of Elected Officials, De-Politicize Process
Share this @internewscast.com

What makes this significant? Bondi, along with many thoughtful Americans, believes that former AG Merrick Garland used the department for political purposes, and she sees this measure as a method to address that issue.

According to the proposal, investigators and prosecutors would no longer have to consult the section’s attorneys during crucial stages of investigations into public officials. This would revise a long-established rule in the Justice Department’s manual detailing the procedures for investigating elected officials.

If implemented, these changes would eliminate a review process designed to ensure that investigations into public officials are legally justified and free from political bias. The experienced prosecutors in the Public Integrity Section played a key role in pursuing allegations of corruption against New York Mayor Eric Adams (D) and former Democratic senator Bob Menendez.

The DOJ confirmed that the idea is under discussion but said no final decisions have been made. Of course, those who have conducted their careers deep in the bureaucracy think everything should just continue in perpetuity:

…cutting the Public Integrity Section out of the approval process for lawmaker prosecutions entirely could give presidentially appointed U.S. attorneys more authority in shaping public corruption cases, making prosecutions more political, said Dan Schwager, a former Public Integrity Section attorney who now works in private practice.

“The reason you have the section is exactly what this administration says they want, which is stop politicization,” Schwager said. “That requires a respect and ability to understand how the laws have been applied in similar situations in the past. The only way to ensure that public officials on both sides of the aisle are treated similarly is to have as much institutional knowledge and experience as possible.”

Ok, Mr. Schwager, if the system works so perfectly, why are even Democrats admitting that the DOJ was weaponized by Joe Biden and his AG to “get” Donald Trump? Why were investigations into the Biden Crime Family routinely buried?

Here’s a lengthy but very interesting post from reporter and political commentator Julie Kelly about the days when Jack Smith was in charge of the Public Integrity Section:

Since the sources for the WaPo report are anonymous (it’s the Washington Post, after all), it’s unclear where this is headed or when. However, you can often tell whether an idea has merit by how liberals react: if they freak out, you know you’re onto something good.
