Garland denies dispatching Colangelo from DOJ to New York Trump case - Washington Examiner
Rep. Matt Gaetz pressed Attorney General Merrick Garland during a House Judiciary Committee hearing on Matthew Colangelo, Donald Trump's prosecutor in New York.

Attorney General Merrick Garland said he was not involved in a former prosecutor from his Department of Justice moving to the New York team that prosecuted former President Donald Trump.
Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) asked directly about Matthew Colangelo, who was part of the team that successfully prosecuted Trump on 34 felony counts related to his hush money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels.
“You had no problem dispatching Matthew Colangelo,” Gaetz charged.
Garland responded, “That is false.”
Gaetz then commented on the unlikelihood that Colangelo would move between the two agencies by coincidence.
“He made this remarkable downstream career journey from the DOJ in Washington, D.C., and then pops up in [Manhattan District Attorney] Alvin Bragg’s office to get Trump,” Gaetz said.
“I assume he applied for a job there,” Garland responded.
Scrutiny of Colangelo intensified following Trump’s conviction in New York City last week.
Colangelo delivered the opening statement at the historic trial, telling jurors Trump “orchestrated a criminal scheme to corrupt the 2016 presidential election, then he covered up that criminal conspiracy by lying in his New York business records over and over and over again.”
In March, before Judge Juan Merchan imposed a gag order on Trump that prevented him from talking about prosecutors, Trump assailed Colangelo in remarks to the press.
“Remember this: Colangelo was a DOJ guy,” Trump said. “He’s a Biden DOJ guy. Why is he in the Manhattan DA’s office trying the case? That in itself is a conflict.”
Comment:
Well of course Garland will have to lie about Biden using the DOJ against Trump.
The DOJ and the FBI have become the Brown Shirts of the Dirty Democrat Party.
They can't win on the issues, so they must cheat all of the time.
Their abuse of power is what makes them a dangerous totalitarian political cult.
