DOJ Argues Protesters Lafayette Square Lawsuit Should Be Dropped as Trump s Out of Office On 5/28/21 at 5:09 PM EDT Department of Justice lawyers want to dismiss lawsuits filed against former President Donald Trump after he had Lafayette Square cleared of Black Lives Matter protesters for a photo op last June because he is no longer president. Christopher Hair, a Justice Department attorney, said that because President Joe Biden is now in office and unlikely to carry out similar actions, the lawsuits are unneeded. These lawsuits seek to prevent a recurrence of the June 1 events in Lafayette Square, Hair said. The lawsuit was filed by the American Civil Liberties Union, which claimed that Trump and then-Attorney General William Barr unlawfully conspired to violate the civil rights of protesters when they were forcibly removed.
