NYT: President Biden says Trump is "a Danger to Democracy" and "Should be Prosecuted"


Listen Later

We've had some important developments on the justice front in recent days, including:
Federal Judge David Carter finds Trump "likely committed crimes to stay in power"
The Department of Justice widens its criminal probe to include funders and organizers of the pre-insurrection rally, as well as the fake electors
For past two months, DOJ as been issuing grand jury subpoenas, involving "officials in former President Trump's orbit"
Now comes new reporting from the New York Times that President Biden, as recently as late last year, was telling those close to him that Trump is "a danger to democracy" and "should be prosecuted." The reporting also indicates that President Biden wants Attorney General Merrick Garland to act more like a prosecutor and "less like a ponderous judge."
Given that the DOJ is supposed to be independent from the White House on matters of who to prosecute, when to prosecute and if to prosecute, will this latest revelation impact AG Garland's approach to the course of the investigation into Trump and company?
