CAFE Insider CAFE Insider 6/8: Why is DOJ Defending Trump?
In this episode of the CAFE Insider podcast, Preet and Joyce break down the news that the DOJ under Attorney General Merrick Garland is maintaining its position that it should defend Donald Trump against a defamation suit brought by E. Jean Carroll, a writer who has accused Trump of raping her in the 1990s. They also discuss newly-released emails that show Mark Meadows, former White House chief of staff, pressuring the DOJ to investigate election fraud conspiracy theories, and the new developments in the criminal investigations into Trump and Matt Gaetz.
