Stop the ‘Special Counsel’ Shenanigans

Here’s an idea: To end the deception of the public, Congress should defund any special-counsel investigation as to which the attorney general’s special-counsel appointment does not comply with the special-counsel regulations.

This would not prevent an attorney general from assigning any prosecutor of the AG’s choosing to any Justice Department investigation. It would merely prevent the Justice Department from misleading the public about its supposed efforts to ensure the integrity of its investigations — as AG Merrick Garland has done with his appointment of sham special counsel David Weiss, a high-ranking Biden Justice Department official who remains the Delaware U.S. attorney, to continue conducting the investigation of Biden family corruption, which Weiss has been sabotaging for five years.
