This is a reading of the December 22nd, 2022 final report from the select committee to investigate the January 6th attack on the United

States Capitol.

Chapter 4 Just Call it Corrupt and Leave the rest to me.

4.15. President Trump's unprecedented attempt to subvert the DOJ.

The most senior DOJ officials at the end of President Trump's term

stopped him from co-opting America's leading law enforcement agency

for his own corrupt purposes.

Recall that Attorney General Barr commented,

you can't live in a world where the incumbent administration stays in power based on

its view unsupported by specific evidence that the election, that there was fraud in the election.

Richard Donahue concluded that Jeffrey Clark's letter may very well have spiraled us into a constitutional

crisis. Jeffrey Rosen summed up his short time as the acting attorney general like

this. During my tenure, we appointed no special prosecutors.

We sent no letters to states or state legislators disputing the election outcome.

We made no public statements saying the election was

corrupt and should be overturned. We initiated no Supreme Court actions, nor

filed or joined any other lawsuits calling into question the legitimacy of our election and institutions.

President Trump attempted to get DOJ to do each of those things. Episodes of government unfiltered are produced without any additional commentary
