Attorney General Merrick Garland named a special counsel to oversee the Justice Department's investigations into Donald Trump.
Attorney General Merrick Garland has named a special counsel on Friday to oversee the Justice Department's investigation into the presence of classified documents at former President Donald Trump's Florida estate as well as key aspects of a separate probe involving the Jan. 6 insurrection and efforts to undo the 2020 election.
The move, which is being announced just three days after Trump announced his 2024 candidacy, is a recognition of the unmistakable political implications of two investigations that involve not only a former president but also a current White House hopeful. Though the appointment installs a new supervisor atop the probes - both of which are expected to accelerate now that the midterm elections are complete - the special counsel will still report to Garland, who has ultimate say of whether to bring charges.
