NEW: @TheJusticeDept alumni, served in both R & D admins, applaud AG Garland's commitment to holding accountable anyone "at any level" who was "criminally responsible for the assault on our democracy" on #Jan6 — whether in the Capitol or not. 1/4 medium.com/@DOJ.Alumni/st…
The investigation "should extend to any actions of administration officials & others to overturn the will of the voters that preceded and followed the insurrection," says their letter, incl. “attempts to pressure federal & state officials to violate their responsibilities." 2/4
The @TheJusticeDept alumni support the AG in investigating high-ranking officials, incl. the former POTUS if that’s where the evidence leads. Doing so is not politicizing the DOJ, they write, it is the embodiment of its mission to pursue equal justice. 3/4
Their letter sends the important message that ensuring accountability for the most powerful actors who assaulted our democracy is critical to preserving the rule of law and democracy itself. 4/4
