Trump's DOJ used to pursue Trump's critics

A book by a former top federal prosecutor offers new details about how the Justice Department under President Donald J. Trump sought to use the U.S. attorney’s office in Manhattan to support Mr. Trump politically and pursue his critics...(C)onduct that had annoyed the president was now a priority of the Department of Justice.”

https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/08/n...rump-book.html

So, the guy who shrieks "witch hunt" any time he is investigated pressured the FBI to conduct witch hunts against those who annoyed him?

So the ones crying that Biden is weaponizing the DOJ are just projecting? Go figure.

The MAGAmaniacs will probably get mad enough to boycott something. Then gather up their big tRump 20-whatever flags and parade up & down in front of a country club they'll never be allowed to set foot in.

It's a shame you don't believe that 'conspiracies' exist.

I could reference printed material from multiple sources testifying that Bill Barr himself is a hard-core crook. The sources weren't sued for slander, or anything. They did face financial persecutions, and in some cases, have been killed under mysteries circumstances.

That's books, not videos which are always fake (according to you).

His turd-polishing of the Mueller report was indeed scandalous, as was his intervention in the Michael Flynn (and other) cases. Barr is on a reputation salvaging tour, but he remains a Trump enabler and thereby an enabler of fascism. Phuck him.

I think you have misunderstood me. I just do not chase conspiracies since I can very easily determine facts from print media reports and analysis.

If Bill Barr is indeed is a crook, facts may bear this out. I do know he covered for Trump but did not overtly break any laws to the best of my knowledge.

Now what I seldom do is go chase news items to find out Bill Barr is a crook or just a lawyer doing his job. This is what leads to conspiracies and I completely avoid it.

Agreed. In a recent interview, after dumping on $45 profusely, he then admitted he will vote for Trump in 2024 if he is the Republican nominee. Beyond salvage imo.

In Central Valley CA, an in your face MAGAland, a US & 2020 flag is requisite on all MAGA mobiles (PU trucks).
