In recent weeks, Trump has been pressuring Justice Department officials for results in these and other investigations, recently admonishing a group of US attorneys for failing to deliver on cases he wants brought. The Weaponization Working Group is now expected to start meeting daily with the goal of producing results in the next two months, according to the person familiar with the plan. A Justice Department spokesperson on Sunday declined to provide specifics around the meetings, noting the agency does not discuss ongoing investigations, but acknowledged the efforts of the Weaponization Working Group continue. “The Justice Department is actively looking into the areas outlined in Attorney General Bondi’s Day One memo,” the spokesperson said. The group’s efforts are unrelated to the Department of Justice’s individual prosecutions of Trump’s political adversaries.
