[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bye, bye DOJ independence [img]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GRaVPJ6WcAItEPY?format=jpg&name=medium[/img][/quote] The DOJ has always been consulted to determine if a presidents actions are lawful or not. Remember when Obama went back and forth with his DOJ about what he could legally do about the Dreamers?[/quote] That's not the point. The DOJ has traditionally been independent from the White House when making criminal prosecution decisions - it's one of our democratic norms followed by Presidents of both parties. That is now gone. Kaput. The President can now order DOJ to investigate/prosecute whoever he likes, with no fear of prosecution. You might to read what Nixon did - the Supreme Court now says that's OK. https://www.cnn.com/2017/10/28/politics/justice-department-interference/index.html[/quote]
