Before being sworn in Republicans accused Biden that he will politicize DOJ and go after events.

He did everything to prevent that appearance even by choosing a conservative judge for that position.

Yeah it was a bad idea, as Republicans continued that narrative.

Though with this blaming I rarely see mentioned SCOTUS, which actually was the biggest reason why it didn't go anywhere. They kept throwing him lifeline after lifeline, when at one point there was nothing that could save him, they pulled absolute immunity off their ass, because sure as hell it isn't in the Constitution.

How? Trump was charged with two major crimes under Biden's DOJ.

Also unless you're a fascist like Trump you don't sick your appointment to the US Attorney General position and DOJ on anyone, let alone a political opponent. Garland and the Smith indeed did investigate and ultimately charge Trump.

They couldn't being it to trial because Trump had already previously stacked the courts, who blocked Smith at every turn.
