Merrick Garland's DOJ Forced Trump Raid Not FBI

Senator Josh Hawley presses Merrick Garland about the FBI raid of the Trump home in Mar-A-Lago during the Senate Judiciary Oversight Hearing on March 1, 2023.

Sen Josh Hawley: "Attorney General Garland, you said in or last exchange that it's your practice to defer to FBI agents in the field when it comes to investigations, apprehensions of subjects, I was, given your answer, to read in this morning's Washington Post that the FBI is saying that you over ruled them when it came to raiding ex-president Trump's personal residence. Washington Post reports this morning "Showdown before the raid" that senior FBI officials who would be in charge of leading the search resisted doing so as too combative and proposed instead to seek Trump's permission to search his property. These field agents wanted to shutter the criminal investigation all together in early June, the post reports, but they were overruled by main DOJ. So, I guess, in light of your earlier testimony just this morning, my question is how often do you overrule FBI field agents for political purposes?"
