A top DOJ official involved in Hunter Biden’s case was removed from his post.
Trump’s Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove informed Bradley Weinsheimer that he was removed as associate deputy attorney general.
Weinsheimer worked along side anti-Trump Deep State hack former Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco and ran interference on the Hunter Biden case.
A report from The New York Post suggested Weinsheimer repeatedly went over Special Counsel David Weiss and was actually in charge of the Hunter Biden tax fraud case.
According to Bloomberg Law, Weinsheimer served in the DOJ for more than 30 years. He was told to take another position in the immigration enforcement division or be fired.
Bloomberg Law reported:
Delegating such weighty tasks to political aides — both first-time DOJ employees — without a career official’s involvement is a dramatic departure from past practice.
Previous versions of the delegation order assigned many of the same powers to a career associate deputy attorney general. That person’s involvement helped insulate thorny matters affecting the department’s integrity from partisan influence and ensured that the experience of the most senior non-political official was brought to bear, former DOJ officials said.
But the most recent holder of that post, Bradley Weinsheimer, was removed from the job, several people familiar with the decision told Bloomberg Law. News reports first circulated on Weinsheimer’s demotion Jan. 27, the same day as Bove’s signature line on the order.
Transferring Weinsheimer’s portfolio to far less experienced political aides can make the department vulnerable to controversies akin to Bove’s handling of the New York Mayor Eric Adams dismissal, the former officials said.
Weinsheimer had been at the department for three decades, and his predecessors had substantial DOJ experience as well.
