Justice Dept. Never Fully Examined Trump’s Ties to Russia
SERIOUSLY! ARE YOU KIDDIN’ ME!! #11 Justice Dept. Never Fully Examined Trump’s Ties to Russia, Ex-Officials Say Aren’t These People Supposed to Know Better? How are people supposed to respect the rule of law, when federal officials can act ‘secretly’ to curtail investigations? -kmortland “The former deputy attorney general maneuvered to keep investigators from completing an inquiry into whether the president’s personal and financial links to Russia posed a national security threat.” “But law enforcement officials never fully investigated Mr. Trump’s own relationship with Russia, even though some career F.B.I. counterintelligence investigators thought his ties posed such a national security threat that they took the extraordinary step of opening an inquiry into them. Within days, the former deputy attorney general Rod J. Rosenstein curtailed the investigation without telling the bureau, all but ensuring it would go nowhere.” https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/30/us/politics/trum...
