haha of course they do. the DOJ is not an independent agency they are an Executive Branch cabinet level agency

 

[Dante Reawakened]

if need be yes. Why do you think the president is above rhe law?

The DOJ has investigate President before. Only Trump demanded they be the President's law firm, working for him.

try reading up.

[ In 1978, as part of its post-Watergate resurgence, Congress gave them extraordinary functional independence within the executive branch and made them more beholden to Congress. These new “statutory IGs” are confirmed by the Senate and must report semiannually to Congress. They have access to all records and information inside the relevant agency and full power to launch investigations, issue subpoenas, and refer criminal wrongdoing to the Justice Department. ]

YEs he did.

A special counsel is appointed for appearances sake -- executive branch investing itself. But the DOJ is not the President's private law firm like Trump kept demanding they be.

He kept demanding and got the Doj to investigate itself: Durham.

[Dante Reawakened]

I hereby demand, and will do so officially tomorrow, that the Department of Justice look into whether or not the FBI/DOJ infiltrated or surveilled the Trump Campaign for Political Purposes - and if any such demands or requests were made by people within the Obama Administration!
