WASHINGTON The U.S. Justice Department will tighten its rules around obtaining records from members of Congress, Attorney General Merrick Garland said Monday, amid revelations the department under former President Donald Trump had secretly seized records from Democrats and members of the media. Consistent with our commitment to the rule of law, Garland said in a statement, we must ensure that full weight is accorded to separation-of-powers concerns moving forward. Garland s statement came as a Justice Department official said the top national security official, John Demers, planned to leave by the end of next week. Demers, who was sworn in a few weeks after the subpoena for the Democrats records, is one of the few Trump appointees who has remained in the Biden administration.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The Justice Department will make its policies for obtaining records of U.S. lawmakers more rigorous after former President Donald Trump’s administration secretly secured data on members of Congress, journalists and a former White House lawyer, the top U.S. law enforcement official said on Monday.
Attorney General Merrick Garland in a statement here also said that political or other improper considerations must play no role in any investigative or prosecutorial decisions and that anyone within the department who fails to live up to that principle will be met with strict accountability.
Democratic congressional leaders on Sunday vowed to investigate the department’s “rogue” actions under Trump, including its move to obtain the communications records of House of Representatives Democrats Adam Schiff and Eric Swalwell as part of a probe into leaks of classified information. Schiff and Swalwell both were critics of Trump, a Republican.
