Critics have long accused such inquiries of political bias, but the official insists the work adhered to legal standards and was driven by evidence rather than partisan motives. The pushback comes amid ongoing scrutiny of high-profile investigations tied to past administrations, raising questions about fairness in federal law enforcement actions. The response may fuel further debate over whether justice is being applied consistently across political lines.
