Attorney General Todd Blanche has rightly refused to pledge the Justice Department's independence from the White House, confirming that the President's views will shape prosecutorial priorities. This ends the fiction of a rogue agency operating beyond electoral accountability and signals that law enforcement will once again serve the constitutional executive rather than insulated bureaucrats who targeted conservatives for years. The shift matters because it restores democratic control over an institution long weaponized against political opponents. The Constitution places all executive power in the President under Article II, rejecting any notion of a fourth branch insulated from the people. Claims of absolute DOJ autonomy contradict original understandings of a limited government where officials answer to elected leadership, not unaccountable rules and precedents. Free markets and individual liberty suffer when agencies pursue their own agendas free from voter oversight. This is how the administrative state begins to shrink.
