Biden is politicizing Justice Department, Republicans say

President Joe Biden is politicizing the Justice Department, according to some Republican critics, echoing a charge he made against former President Donald Trump while vowing to be different.

The White House insists the DOJ is independent of Biden as the department responds to Georgia’s election law, Texas’s abortion legislation, and parents who are angry with their children’s school boards. The department is also preparing to consider measures regarding Congress’s investigation into the Jan. 6 Capitol Hill sacking.
