An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Investigate DOJ Interference and Protect Judicial Independence

2 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

I am writing to express my deep concern over recent events that threaten the integrity of our justice system and the separation of powers. Two incidents, in particular, demand immediate attention and action from Congress. First, I am alarmed by the abrupt closure of an FBI investigation into Tom Homan, which allegedly uncovered evidence of him accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. This probe was reportedly shut down by the Department of Justice in early 2025, with a DOJ appointee dismissing it as a "deep state" investigation. This characterization and the subsequent termination of the probe raise serious questions about potential obstruction of justice and political interference in law enforcement activities. Equally troubling is President Trump's recent message to Pam Bondi on Truth Social. In what can only be described as a thinly veiled threat, Trump ordered Bondi to investigate his political enemies, implying she could be replaced if she failed to comply. This blatant attempt to weaponize the justice system against political opponents is a direct assault on the rule of law and democratic principles. These incidents highlight a dangerous pattern of disregard for the independence of our justice system and the constitutional separation of powers. As my representative, I urge you to take immediate action: 1. Initiate a congressional investigation into the closure of the Tom Homan probe, examining who made the decision, on what grounds, and whether there was improper influence from political actors. 2. Launch an inquiry into Trump's public message to Pam Bondi, exploring potential violations of laws regarding obstruction of justice or abuse of power. 3. Propose legislation to strengthen the independence of the Department of Justice and other law enforcement agencies from political interference. 4. Hold public hearings to address the broader issue of executive overreach and its impact on the justice system. It's time for Congress to reassert its role as a co-equal branch of government and act as a check on executive power. The blatant lawlessness we're witnessing cannot go unchallenged. Our democracy depends on your willingness to stand up for the rule of law and hold those in power accountable, regardless of their political affiliations. I eagerly await your response detailing the specific actions you will take to address these critical issues and uphold the integrity of our democratic institutions.
