One should have nothing to do with another.

Note that Garland said publicly that he was investigating the document destruction case referred by the National Archives, but he has never said he is investigating Trump for 1/6/21. You're reading tea leaves that aren't there. We haven't seen the Trump crowd suing to stop subpoenas from DOJ, and we would if there was an active case.

such a development would not explain the resignations of the two ADA's assigned to the case. The most likely explanation for their action was one of absolute frustration and disgust with a decision by the DA to shelve the case.
