The Trump Justice Department summoned US Marshals to deliver a letter to fired Biden-era pardon attorney Liz Oyer to warn her about her testimony at a ‘shadow’ hearing by congressional Democrats.
President Trump’s Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche fired Elizabeth Oyer last month.
Elizabeth Oyer told The New York Times she was fired for refusing to restore actor Mel Gibson’s gun rights.
“Giving guns back to domestic abusers is a serious matter that, in my view, is not something that I could recommend lightly because there are real consequences that flow from people who have a history of domestic violence being in possession of firearms,” Elizabeth Oyer told The New York Times.
The Justice Department tried to invoke executive privilege and warned Oyer against testifying in a shadow hearing on Monday.
