Matt Whitaker: "I don't have any reason to believe there's enough evidence to indict President Trump."

The US Department of Justice launched two investigations just days after Donald Trump launched his third bid for the White House.

Jack Smith is heading both DOJ investigations as a special counsel, examining Trump's role prior to the January riot and whether he retained sensitive documents at his home in Mar-a-Lago.

If I'm sitting in the shoes of someone who needs to indict a case, I want to know why, who the victim is, and what happened.

The DOJ may not have the "smoking gun" to indict the former president, according to the Attorney General.

The Biden administration is struggling to get a handle on the crisis at the southern border.

Garland's appointment has Trump in mind, but it's not what you think.

According to Customs and Border Protection, an average of 2,693 migrants per day are evading apprehension.

There is no legal justification for Title 42. There's a political reason for it. The administration wants it to continue in place because it's the only tool they have left.

The discussions that he had with members of the Biden administration did not go well.

I worked with the president and others in the cabinet to come up with a solution to address all these issues. We were close in the meetings, but nothing happened.
