Former President Trump was, understandably, not amused. “A Trump spokesperson told the Daily Caller, ‘This is a totally expected political stunt by a feckless, politicized, weaponized Biden Department of Justice.’”

“’The Department of Justice has long recognized that in certain, extraordinary cases, it is in the public interest to appoint a special prosecutor to independently manage an investigation and prosecution,’ Garland said.
“’Based on recent developments, including the former president’s announcement that he’s a candidate for president in the next election, and the sitting president’s stated intention to be a candidate as well, I have concluded that it’s in the public’s interest to appoint a special counsel,’ he added.”

“Prosecution over the Emoluments Clause failed, and the Jan. 6 Committee failed to serve the long-sought indictment that’s become the top item on the Democrats’ policy agenda for six years. Now that the Select Committee’s days are numbered with an incoming Republican majority, Garland’s move to bring a special counsel into the mix is a move to cement the Jan. 6 inquiry into a forever investigation. But while the panel admitted their investigation was all about last week’s midterms in March, Garland is pretending his department’s politized investigations are all about public integrity.”
The Federalist also notes that Garland has declined to appoint a special counsel to investigate Hunter Biden, raising suspicions of political bias.
