Representative Daniel Goldman (D-NY) reacted to the DOJ winding down the criminal cases against President-elect Donald Trump by calling it a “travesty” for the justice system. Earlier this week, special counsel Jack Smith filed a motion to clear deadlines within Trump’s criminal case in D.C., indicating the department was preparing to drop it’s charges against the president-elect following his Tuesday victory.

Goldman joined MSNBC anchor Al Sharpton for an interview on Sunday where he said it was “truly shameful” that Trump would be “avoiding accountability” for his criminal charges. The New York lawmaker also dismissed claims that the Biden DOJ was weaponized against Trump.

SHARPTON: Congressman Goldman, you’re a former federal prosecutor. You served as counsel to House Democrats during Trump’s first impeachment. NBC’s reporting that the Department of Justice is now trying to figure out how to wind down two federal cases against him. The January 6th and classified document cases before he takes office. At the same time, Trump is trying to get both his federal and state cases wiped out, especially his felony sentencing here in New York, which which he wants dismissed. And the Georgia election case against him, which is tied up on appeal. What are your thoughts with all of this?

GOLDMAN: Well, I think it is truly shameful that Donald Trump is appears at least right now, to be avoiding accountability for the crimes that a grand jury charged him of.
