THE DOJ TRACKER: PART I — 2025 INTERFERENCE REPORT
White House Interference Index (Source: Justice Connection — DOJ Tracker)
What follows is not commentary.
It is structure — an indexed record of the administration’s direct interventions into the Department of Justice between January and October 2025.
Each entry documents an action that altered, delayed, or redirected the Department’s proper legal function.
Events are organized by month, category, and severity.
Then cross-linked through narrative arcs that show how short-term disruptions evolved into structural shifts.
This document does not interpret motives.
It traces mechanics of interference —
who acted, what changed, and how institutional capacity was weakened or re-purposed.
Every event derives from verified public reporting aggregated by Justice Connection’s DOJ Tracker,
a continuously updated chronology maintained by former Justice Department professionals.
Justice Connection — Definition and Scope
Justice Connection is a nonpartisan network of former Justice Department attorneys, career prosecutors, and ethics officials —
Democrats, Republicans, and independents —
who track and document threats to the Department’s independence.
Its DOJ Tracker compiles verifiable incidents drawn from court filings, inspector-general records, agency memoranda, and major-outlet reporting.
The network’s purpose is documentation, not advocacy.
It does not lobby.
It does not endorse candidates.
It does not publish opinion.
Its credibility rests on direct professional experience within the Department of Justice and on a strict commitment to evidentiary sourcing.
In this consolidation, the DOJ Tracker serves as the primary evidentiary spine.
Each event is cited to it, ensuring the record remains transparent, auditable, and historically grounded.
Timeline Commences — January through March 2025
