The Department of Justice (DOJ) and White House press secretary Jen Psaki
are doing damage control after President Biden told reporters Friday
evening that anyone who defies a congressional subpoena should be
prosecuted.
The remarks by the president come as the Jan. 6 select commission is
ramping up issuing subpoenas for former President Trump administration
officials and others who may have information on Trump's efforts to
investigate claims of voter fraud in the 2020 election.
Biden told reporters in a South Lawn gaggle outside of Air Force One, "I
hope the committee goes after them and holds accountable." He was
referring to individuals who refuse to comply with a congressional
subpoena.

SUBPOENA HOLDOUTS
One reporter followed up, "Should they be prosecuted?"
"I do, yes," responded Biden.
DOJ spokesman Anthony Coley responded with a terse statement Friday
evening in response to Biden.
"The Department of Justice will make its own independent decisions in all
prosecutions based solely on the facts and the law. Period. Full stop,"
said Coley.

In addition, Psaki attempted to clarify Biden's statement on Twitter,
stating that the president supports the "independent role" of DOJ's
prosecutorial decisions.
Former President Trump DOJ official Jeffrey Clark was subpoenaed by the
commission earlier this week for testimony and documents.
In addition, former Deputy Attorney General Jeff Rosen reportedly sat down
for an interview with the commission on Wednesday.

"Probably best @POTUS leave this to the AG," former President Obama
adviser David Axelrod also tweeted, referring to Attorney General Merrick
Garland.
