Dope1,

I have to disagree with the notion that the DOJ was EVER "independent." (I'm not saying you believe that but why even concede that it should be?)

That's just malarkey when for example Biden wants his DOJ to do something but giving the President some measure of plausible deniability.

DOJ is not independent, it can't be, and it shouldn't be. The Attorney General is a member of the President's candidate and answers directly to Presidential authority.

DOJ just like every other part of the Executive branch is not, never was, never was intended to be, and never will be--and should NOT be--"independent" of Presidential control.
