Released Reports
The DOJ released two special counsel reports this week.
Monday, Special Counsel David Weiss’s final report on his investigation into Hunter Biden’s federal tax and gun charges was released. In it, Weiss defended his decision to prosecute the President’s son—which President Biden called a “miscarriage of justice”—saying the six-year probe was “thorough” and “impartial.” Hunter was convicted in both cases but pardoned by President Biden in December.
Yesterday, the DOJ released part of former Special Counsel Jack Smith’s final report on his two-year investigation into President-elect Trump, a 174-page document alleging Trump obstructed 2020 election results. The report—which Trump’s lawyers called a “politically motivated attack”—said that the DOJ had sufficient evidence to “sustain a conviction at trial” had Trump not won reelection in November.
Verse to consider whether you think justice won out or fell short… “Therefore the Lord is waiting to show you mercy, and is rising up to show you compassion, for the Lord is a just God. All who wait patiently for him are happy.”
