The Federalist's Mollie Hemingway on Thursday's 'Special Report' said the highly politicized Department of Justice can be "used offensively" to go after political enemies and used defensively to protect others by using the excuse "we can't answer any questions."
"A special counsel is a tool that the Department of Justice has," Hemingway said. "In the hands of a very politicized Department of Justice, like the one we have now, it can be a weapon. It can be used offensively to go after political opponents such as the way the Department of Justice is going after their primary political opponent, former President Trump."
"It can also be used defensively to protect, like Jeff [Mason] points out," Hemingway continued.
