Trump administration faces fresh scrutiny after DoJ drops bribery case against Indian billionaire

Warren and Blumenthal raise concerns about case against Gautam Adani, who promised to invest $10bn in US

For the second time this year, two Democratic senators have demanded that the US attorney general, Todd Blanche, answer questions about the Department of Justice’s handling of the case – and raised concerns over its judgment under Donald Trump.
