NEW YORK - Former president Donald Trump and a Justice Deptment official plotted to oust the acting attorney general to try to advance baseless election claims, interviews show.
The previously unknown chapter was the culmination of former President Trump's long-running effort to batter the Justice Department into advancing his personal agenda.
This account of the department’s final days under his leadership is based on interviews with four former Trump administration officials who asked not to be named because of fear of retaliation, according to the New York Times.
