Biden-appointed judge eviscerates DOJ

U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes on Friday sharply criticized the Department of Justice for instructing its personnel not to comply with subpoenas from the House Judiciary Committee while pursuing charges against former Trump officials who defied congressional subpoenas.

Reyes, an appointee of President Joe Biden, oversaw a hearing in a legal dispute between the DOJ and Judiciary Committee over subpoenas the panel issued to Mark Daly and Jack Morgan, two attorneys with the DOJ, to testify in their ongoing impeachment inquiry, Politico reported.

The Judiciary Committee sued in March to compel testimony from the two attorneys in the DOJ Tax Division, though the DOJ instructed the pair not to comply.

Reyes, for her part, appeared to accuse the DOJ of hypocrisy, stating, "I think it's quite rich you guys pursue criminal investigations and put people in jail for not showing up" but then order personnel to do the same thing.

She further highlighted the contrast between the DOJ's behavior in this matter and the prosecution and incarceration of former Trump advisor Peter Navarro, reported to prison last month to begin serving his four-month sentence for contempt of Congress after he ignored a subpoena from the House Jan. 6 Committee.

"There's a person in jail right now because you all brought a criminal lawsuit against him because he did not appear for a House subpoena," she added.

She ordered the DOJ to attempt to negotiate a resolution with House Counsel Matthew Berry.

Reyes was appointed to serve as a District Court judge in February of last year.

Morgan and Daly were participants in the tax investigation into first son Hunter Biden that has faced allegations of political interference from IRS whistleblowers who worked on the case.

Another reason they can’t let Trump win because they’re all guilty of exactly what they accuse us of.

Remember when that federal judge excoriated the DOJ in the Senator Ted Stevens case? And do you remember what punishment was given by the judge? It was a whole lot of nothing.

Ok good observation.

And a judge could have refused to impose a sentence in the Navarro case because of the DOJ's behavior. But that didn't happen. Arbitrary or targeted enforcement for obvious political reasons is unconstitutional, yet a judge bent over for the DOJ anyway.

So, in the end the judge did nothing.

DOJ attorneys walked out of the building laughing at that judge.

If you think the Judiciary is going to do anything at all to restore the rule of law in this country, think again.

Within an hour of Trump swearing in there should be several hundred DOJ, FBI, Dem politicians and election officials arrested, shackled, and jailed. Then give them the Biden Regime traditional 3 year wait for trial with no bail, and in substandard cells.

But SFP said lawfare against Trump and Republicans is just a myth.

Judge Reyes knows that Biden's DOJ is corrupt and she should be commended for her honesty.

He usually only opines on legal decisions that advance the agenda of grown men having sex with young boys.

SFP is the anti Gary Plauche.

And the DOJ’s out. How long to “negotiate” a “resolution”?
DOJ should have been ordered to comply with the requests.
