New DOJ: Failure to grant dept access to Jan 6 cmte. witness transcripts complicates investigations

[bigtree]

16. those prosecutions are perpetually delayed by legal challenges to standing, privilege

...and other defense allowances on the way to trial.

That's not an actual point.

The problem with duplicating testimony is that it must be consistent. Makes little sense for DOJ to allow their prosecutions to be blindsided by Congress-obtained depositions, and it makes even less sense to have to conduct their own which may conflict with what Congress is putting out in the public.

Not understanding the reason for the committee denying the people who actually have the job of obtaining convictions relevant evidence requested for MONTHS. Congress has deliberately made DOJ's job harder like they're some adversary, instead of the branch we depend on to met out justice.

Makes no goddamn sense the way they're alternately bashed for not doing more, then jeered and when they tell us what they need to proceed.

This is the Biden Justice Dept, and Congress need to stop treating them like an opponent, especially as they're doing the actual work of convicting the people the committee is informing us about.
