Original Note:
This is misleading and factually incorrect. The President has the power to appoint the Attorney General, but has no influence over DOJ policies and procedures. In fact, the White House and DOJ “aren’t even meant to talk with each other about ongoing criminal investigations…” https://www.latimes.com/nation/nationnow/la-na-justice-department-white-house-20161123-story.html
