Vance has put a hold on Justice Department nominees to protest prosecution of ex-President Donald Trump.
l of all Justice Department nominees as a way to protest what Vance calls “the unprecedented political prosecution” of former President Donald Trump.
Vance lodged an objection to Durbin’s effort to unanimously approve the nominees, stressing that he doesn’t object to their qualifications. “I don’t want to be objecting to these nominees, but what I like much less is the fact that these nominees will be used by the Attorney General for politics over justice,” Vance continued. “I would very much like if the Department of Justice focused on the work of law enforcement instead of politics. Until it does, I will object to these nominations, I will object to giving unanimous consent.”
He said Biden has respected the Justice Department’s independence and never interfered in any investigation of himself and his family, while “Trump treated the Justice Department as his personal law firm for four years, and he continues to undermine the rule of law by repeatedly threatening and making baseless accusations against judges, prosecutors grand jurors and witnesses.”
