The Justice Department is rescinding its protocol for federal executions that allowed for single-drug lethal injections with pentobarbital.

House Democrats are urging Merrick Garland to take all necessary steps to release special counsel Jack Smith's report on Donald Trump's handling of classified documents.

Democratic lawmakers blamed the Department of Justice not bringing charges against President-elect Trump sooner for assuring his election victory.

Democrats urged the attorney general to release the remainder of the special counsel's report even if it means dismissing charges against Walt Nauta and Carlos De Oliveira.

Attorney General Merrick Garland plans to release Jack Smith's report on Trump's alleged election interference, but the timing remains uncertain.

In a filing, Garland outlined his intentions to publicize the final memo on Trump’s 2020 election subversion case, which constitutes “volume one” of Smith’s report, while handing the controversial details of Trump’s classified documents case to the chair and ranking member of the House and Senate Judiciary Committees.

Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee say Attorney General Merrick Garland should "take all necessary steps" to ensure the rest of the special counsel's report is released before Trump takes office.

Six months after she dismissed the classified documents case against Donald Trump, U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon can now decide whether to squash the release of Jack Smith's report, too.

In a farewell speech to Justice Department staffers, outgoing Attorney General Merrick Garland on Thursday appeared to rebuke attacks from President-elect Donald Trump and his allies who have "wrongly criticized" the department as politically motivated.

In his farewell address, Attorney General Merrick Garland sought to encourage an embattled DOJ facing uncertainty and to unabashedly defend his tenure and their work.
