Ending the Weaponization of the Federal Government

AI Summary: This is a policy document, specifically an Executive Order (EO 14147) addressing perceived political weaponization of federal government agencies. This regulation establishes a process to review and potentially correct actions taken by federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies during the previous administration. The order requires the Attorney General to review civil and criminal enforcement activities from the past four years across various departments, identifying instances where agency conduct may have been improper. Similarly, the Director of National Intelligence must review Intelligence Community activities during the same period. Both are required to prepare reports for the President with recommendations for remedial actions. The order emphasizes document retention compliance and directs that any instances of non-compliance be referred to the Attorney General. The document explicitly states that it does not create enforceable legal rights and must be implemented consistent with existing law and available appropriations. The order's purpose is to examine potential misuse of governmental power, focusing on investigations, prosecutions, and actions against perceived political opponents that the document suggests may have been constitutionally or legally questionable.
