Biden has 'restored the integrity' of Justice Department, House Democrat tells ABC
Many conservatives feel the DOJ has been weaponized under Biden

Rep. Dan Goldman, D-N.Y., insisted Sunday that President Biden has "restored the integrity of Department of Justice," despite the DOJ facing heat from conservatives for a plethora of issues as many feel it has been weaponized.
ABC News' Jonathan Karl noted that White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has said a pardon for Hunter Biden is off the table, but that President Biden himself hasn’t publicly ruled it out, before asking if a pardon for his son would be a mistake.
"Yes, and I don’t think there’s any chance that President Biden is going to do that, unlike his predecessor, who pardoned all his friends and anyone who had any access to him," Goldman said on "This Week."
"President Biden has restored the integrity of Department of Justice, and I think you see that in this case where he kept on — and Merrick Garland kept on a Trump-appointed attorney to investigate the president’s son," Goldman continued. "If there is not an indication of the independence of the Department of Justice beyond that, I don’t know what we can look for."
