CNN’s Jim Acosta requested, “Do you suppose on the finish of the day the justice division will do what Liz Cheney is saying and in the event that they see a case, act?”

Dean answered:

  I feel they are going to. I feel that Merrick Garland is a profession Justice Division man. He has an excellent sense of what it’s wish to be in that division. And he is aware of that that — these workers attorneys would revolt if he simply turned apart a transparent case that was sitting on the market in opposition to this president. I feel he’s bought to. His different various, after all, is to nominate a particular prosecutor as a result of he thinks it’s political and attempt to delay the choice by going by that course of. 

However the different factor is, Merrick Garland needs to get the Division of Justice again the place it was when it had respect. Earlier than the Trump group type of tore it aside and depressed a number of attorneys. In order that they need to do that internally. I feel Garland will do this. I feel he’s given two press conferences now the place he stated anyone and all people who’s concerned criminally shall be handled. He’s all however stated if it’s the president, I’ll indict the president. So I feel now we have to provide him the advantage of the doubt and I’ve only a few doubts.

The consensus seems to be rising amongst authorized consultants that it’s getting extra seemingly that the Division of Justice will transfer to cost Donald Trump. Earlier than the 1/6 Committee hearings, it was tough to seek out many consultants within the authorized neighborhood who believed that Trump could be charged. A lot of the dialog was criticism of the Justice Division and Garland for not going after Trump.

The DOJ’s investigation into Trump and the faux electors turned public data, and the 1/6 Committee unveiled a mountain of proof in opposition to Trump and his associates.

Now the shock shall be if the Justice Division doesn’t pursue motion in opposition to Trump.
