The top criminal prosecutor in the Washington, DC, US Attorney’s Office, Denise Cheung, resigned Tuesday after declining a request from her Trump-appointed superiors to open a grand jury investigation that she viewed as premature, according to multiple people familiar with the matter.
Couldn’t she investigate and find everything was perfectly fine?

Cheung, a long-time DOJ employee, had been asked to shepherd an investigation into an Environmental Protection Agency funding decision during the Biden administration and then use DOJ’s powers to freeze that funding.
Looks like it had more to do with the second part.
While Bove’s office insisted that it had, citing a Project Veritas video, Cheung and others didn’t believe the evidence on hand was enough for a grand jury investigation, her letter and additional sources told CNN.
She said after the pushback, the Justice Department instead wanted to freeze assets in a bank related to the Biden-era EPA funding.
Project Veritas content is seriously compromised much of the time; it’s often undercover video which is selectively edited to produce something misleading. You can’t use it as evidence without getting the rest of the context.

They also went to jail for this shit. How they are still around is a testament to how moronic people are.
