COLOR US SHOCKED: Biden Administration Played Part In DOJ Probe Of Trump

New evidence has come to light about the level of involvement the Biden administration had in the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) criminal investigation into former President Donald Trump, according to Just the News.

Government documents revealed that the federal government wanted to waive executive privilege of Trump, over documents that he had at his residence in Florida.

Just The News reported:

The memos show then-White House Deputy Counsel Jonathan Su was engaged in conversations with the FBI, DOJ and National Archives as early as April, shortly after 15 boxes of classified and other materials were voluntarily returned to the federal historical agency from Trump’s Florida home.

By May, Su conveyed to the Archives that President Joe Biden would not object to waiving his predecessor’s claims to executive privilege, a decision that opened the door for the DOJ to get a grand jury to issue a subpoena compelling Trump to turn over any remaining materials he possessed from his presidency.

National Archivist Debra Steidel Wall, had sent a letter to Trump’s attorneys, confirming that the Biden administration had a part to play in the DOJ probe.

“On April 11, 2022, the White House Counsel’s Office — affirming a request from the Department of Justice supported by an FBI letterhead memorandum — formerly transmitted a request that NARA provide the FBI access to the 15 boxes for its review within seven days, with the possibility that the FBI might request copies of specific documents following its review of the boxes,” Wall wrote.

The letter continued:

The Counsel to the President has informed me that, in light of the particular circumstances presented here, President Biden defers to my determination, in consultation with the Assistant Attorney General for the Office of Legal Counsel, regarding whether or not I should uphold the former President’s purported “protective assertion of executive privilege.”…I have therefore decided not to honor the former President’s “protective” claim of privilege.

The White House has previously denied having any involvement in the probe and said they had “no advanced knowledge” about the raid carried out by the FBI at Mar-a-Lago.

“Does ANYBODY really believe that the White House didn’t know about this?” Trump posted on Truth Social. “WITCH HUNT!”

It was also claimed by Wall that Trump had files marked “classified national security information” in 15 different boxes that were returned to the National Archives at the beginning of 2022.

Evan Corcoran, Trump’s lawyer, wrote a letter to the National Archives General Counsel Gary Stern in April stating: 

We have requested the ability to review the documents. That review is necessary in order to ascertain whether any specific document is subject to privilege. We would respectfully request that you restrict access to the documents until we have had the opportunity to review the documents and to consult with President Donald J. Trump so that he may personally make any decision to assert a claim of constitutionally based privilege.

During an interview with Just The News, legal scholar Alan Dershowitz, was not shy to criticize the Biden administration for waiving Trumps’ executive privilege.

“I was very surprised. The current president should not be able to waive the executive privilege of a predecessor, without the consent of the former president. Otherwise, [privilege] means nothing,” Dershowitz said. “What president will ever discuss anything in private if he knows the man who beat him can and will disclose it.”

“The best thinking is that an incumbent president cannot waive the right of the previous president. It would make a mockery of the whole notion of privilege,” Dershowitz continued.

  1. The whole Biden administration should be in jail along with his family members for the crimes that they have committed against this country

  2. They lie, they steal and cheat and nothing ever happens to them. It sounds like, other than to keep the constant harassment going one of their goals is to not leave him with a scrap of paper from when he was president. IF they can’t figure out a way to block him from running in 24 I hope there’s hell to pay when he wins, and he will.
