Subverting Justice

Late in his administration Donald Trump attempted to subvert the Department of Justice (DOJ) and bend it to his will by replacing top DOJ officials with his own cohorts and cronies.

He attempted in at least nine meetings to undermine the DOJ and results of the 2020 election.

Finally in a lengthy Oval Office meeting, three top DOJ officials threatened to resign, as did two White House counsel officials.

Trump was forced to back down.

This document is the official U.S. Senate Report on this sordid affair.
