Rebuilding trust in the Justice Department starts — but doesn t end — with Biden s choice of attorney general

Rebuilding trust in the Justice Department starts but doesn t end with Biden s choice of attorney general Crystal Hill Before Attorney General William Barr assumed office in February 2019, a startling memorandum on Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation that Barr composed and sent, unsolicited, to the Department of Justice surfaced around the time of his nomination. Barr, in his 2018 memo, asserted that the U.S. Constitution “places no limits on the president’s authority to act on matters which concern him or his own conduct,” revealing for some legal scholars a troubling view of the scope of presidential power, or at least of Trump’s.

Investigation of Hunter Biden must remain independent of White House influence

Investigation of Hunter Biden must remain independent of White House influence The problems of the president-elect’s son aren’t going away. Since his election, Joe Biden has kept his focus firmly on his prospective personnel and policy plans, mostly ignoring at least publicly such potential distractions as President Donald Trump’s legal maneuvers and his son Hunter’s legal problems. Until Monday night, when the president-elect celebrated his Electoral College victory, he had rarely commented on his defeated opponent’s increasingly far-fetched legal steps and verbal rejoinders. After all, he will be gone when Biden becomes president on Jan. 20.

Biden looking for Commerce secretary to rebuild relationships with business community

Biden has named the majority of his Cabinet selections but Commerce is still outstanding. Two notable businesswomen, Meg Whitman and Mellody Hobson, have been floated as possible nominees, with some suggesting he could choose a Republican for the role.

Business leaders consistently say they long for normalcy and predictability. This present team has not sought input from the business groups as in the past. Choosing a Republican or someone close to the business community would go a long way to help solidify his support among this neglected segment, a former senior Trump Commerce official said.
