Lauro hailed the decision as a victory for constitutional rights, criticizing what he described as a politically motivated DOJ under Merrick Garland and Jack Smith.
“Our long national nightmare of a politicized and weaponized Department of Justice is finally over,” Lauro said. “Judge Cannon’s decision protects and upholds the sanctity of our constitutional rights.”
