"The Department of Justice under President Biden has proven to be a cesspool of partisanship, further evident by the hyper-politicized courts that have taken up President Trump’s criminal trials," Gooden's letter read.

Gooden asked to receive a response to his questions by May 24, 2024.
Trump is currently on trial for making alleged hush money payments while he was campaigning for president in 2016. The former president has pleaded "not guilty" to the charges, and will spend the next several weeks of his 2024 presidential campaign in the courtroom.
