Judge Criticizes DOJ for Ignoring Subpoenas in Biden Impeachment Inquiry

A federal judge appointed by President Biden accused the DOJ of hypocrisy for not allowing attorneys involved in the Hunter Biden investigation to testify, despite imprisoning others for similar defiance.

U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes rebuked the DOJ for instructing attorneys Mark Daly and Jack Morgan not to comply with House subpoenas.
The criticism came during a hearing on a lawsuit filed by the House Judiciary Committee, part of a Republican-led impeachment inquiry into President Biden.
Former Trump advisor Peter Navarro is currently imprisoned for refusing to comply with a congressional subpoena, highlighting the perceived double standard.
The DOJ's refusal to allow testimony is part of a broader investigation into Hunter Biden's alleged tax offenses and the president's potential involvement.
The judge's remarks underscore tensions between the executive and legislative branches, with the impeachment inquiry into President Biden ongoing.
