The reporting
Joe diGenova resigned from his Justice Department post overseeing a South Florida-based investigation into whether former law enforcement and intelligence officials conspired against President Donald Trump. DiGenova said he submitted his resignation letter to Attorney General Todd Blanche at 3 p.m. and called serving Trump and the department “an honor and a privilege.” The inquiry, sometimes called the “grand conspiracy” probe, targeted officials tied to Trump-Russia investigations and Obama- and Biden-era actions. He left without announcing charges amid reported clashes with DOJ leadership over the investigation’s pace.

Trump’s Justice Department was abusing its power by pursuing a politically motivated investigation of his adversaries. Officials were acting unethically by pushing for charges despite weak evidence and serious concerns about the probe’s legitimacy.
