The deputy attorney general says the Department of Justice will not stop its investigation into Donald Trump’s alleged efforts to undermine the 2020 election regardless if he announces his run for the 2024 election.
The Hill reports:
“We’re going to continue to do our job, to follow the facts wherever they go, no matter where they lead, no matter to what level,” Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco said Tuesday in response to questions after speaking at a cybersecurity conference in New York.
“We’re going to continue to investigate what was fundamentally an attack on our democracy.”
DOJ traditionally avoids investigative action that might implicate a candidate in the 60 days preceding an election. But Monaco’s comments indicate the Justice Department may not stick to that norm, which is not an official DOJ policy.
“The mandate the team has remains, which is to follow the facts wherever they go, regardless of what level, regardless of whether the subject of those investigations were present on Jan. 6,” Monaco said.
Monaco’s comments come as the DOJ has reportedly been expanding the scope of its investigation into Jan. 6 but has yet to directly investigate Trump as a key target.

Democrats January 6 witch hunt only shows their contempt against Trump, his supporters and their inability to build a case against him and any Republican. The Jan. 6 committee consists of a better than thou, hateful and illegal bunch of idiots who hate anything and anybody that doesn’t vote democrat or who they can’t pay off to vote for them through cheating or by lying. Personally, I believe Pelosi was behind the Jan. 6 event along with some of her colleagues and capital police. The idea is to keep people busy thinking about this sham trial but what is going on is the democrats wanting to get rid of their opposition and take total control of this country and our lives. Time for people to rise up against the swamp and take them out of government, never to again be allowed to hold office in government again! People need to investigate all Democrats and take them out. We aren’t in congress but they are and they are destroying our country ie selling our countries property and buildings to our enemy CHINA and especially near our military bases, selling our Intel to China and our advisories. How about the riots, border and millions of illegals, trying to take our constitution rights away. I’m tired of democrats and want them out of office. If they can’t stick up for us and protect us then get them out now. The democrats talk about democracy as if they are the only ones who support it.. He.l they don’t even know what it means!!! They are scum bags who can’t be trusted for their lying communist ways and Biden and his Radical troop of idiots are part of all of this!
Tis is not surprising as the end game is to make Trump so undesirable he could not possibly be elected to Dog Catcher. It just shows how much of a Political Scam this whole sideshow is. This is a criminal committee run by criminals.
dumb arse
The Department of INJUSTICE needs to be taken apart and rebuilt with Honest and Fair people with scruples ! There are plenty of LYING Criminals within !
The AG needs to be arrested and tried as a TRAITOR them put in a Federal Prison !
A total scam at the taxpayers expense!!!
They have already proved Trump did nothin wrong – this liberal is just trying to make a name for herself for future ambitions – it will backfire in her face
They are using the same tactic of distraction as they did before.I believe that the people are much wiser now.Funny thing about lies ,they always come back to bite you.Without truth there is chaos.
The deputy DA needs to be in jail.
LET’S GO BRANDON
FJB
The Democrats think they can “Get Away” with anything but they will suffer their ideologic Green Illegal immigrant wishful thinking ideas until November when the brakes are engaged and their idiotic plans to turn AMERICA into a cesspool of Drugs and Crime and Illegals come to a Screeching Halt!
LMAO had 2 failed impeachments NY AG has 3 failed investigations and found nothing you had the miller probe and found nothing here ann IDEA Biden’s crimes have so much proof of criminal activities in his own voice how about going there instead of trying to save the deep state from a man there overly afraid of LMAO he coming back 2024 and finishing the job of draining the corruption which is both democrats and republicans
Vermin, Vermin everywhere these days, can’t wait for the GREAT FUMIGATION of 2022 in November!!!
But no investigation into Hunter Biden’s corruption despite GBs of data and video showing many and varied illegal activities. No investigation into Hillary Clinton and her use of the State Department to fund the Clinton Foundation, sell uranium to the Russians, or arms to Syria through Benghazi. The DOJ is only interested in pursuing Republicans and protecting Democrats (by smashing phones and hiding laptops). We are already a One Party nation, a Party that is gutting us so we fit in with the rest of the Third World as global governance proceeds. Obama succeeded in radically transforming America, and now he rules over the nation’s suicide (open borders, woke military, Communist educators, more fentanyl deaths in one year than the Korean and Viet Nam wars killed in 14 — the hand in the Biden sock puppet.
