Eastman and Yoo: Dems' unrelenting drive against Trump continues to do real harm to presidency, Constitution
Fox News
While Congress has a right to investigate the events leading to the terrible riot of Jan. 6, it does not have a right to override the constitutional prerogatives of an independent branch of government.
On January 23, 2021, Senate Judiciary Committee Democrats sent a letter to the Department of Justice demanding production of documents concerning meetings and communications between Trump and high-ranking Justice Department officials regarding election fraud. House and the Senate committees subsequently followed up with subpoenas for a slew of top former Justice Department officials, such as Acting Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen, assistant attorney general Jeffrey Clark, and U.S. Attorneys in Georgia and New York. In normal times, the Justice Department would immediately reject these demands. Article II of the Constitution specifies, after all, that the President "may require the Opinion" from his principal officers "upon any Subject relating to the Duties of their respective offices."More Related News
