Garland defends Justice Department backing Trump-era decisions


At a Senate hearing on Wednesday, Garland was asked to respond to criticism against the Justice Department s (DOJ) efforts to fight the release of an internal legal memo from the Trump era and its defense of the former president in a defamation suit from a woman who accused him of rape.
