President Trump is directing the Justice Department to prosecute his perceived political enemies, upending the career ranks and raising questions about selective prosecution.

"His statement was roundly criticised by Democrats, including Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer who said "this is the path to a dictatorship".

"The justice department has always been a very, very strong civil service, no matter who was in charge, a Democrat or Republican. They went after law violators without fear or favour," he told CNN on Sunday.

"He's turning it into an instrument that goes after his enemies, whether they're guilty or not," he said of the president.

Asked about his comments on Sunday, Trump said: "They have to act. They have to act fast."

;;
His contempt for the Law is obvious; his partisan prosecutions are Putinesque.

Of course, best of luck getting a conviction for whatever nonsensical charges he "trumps" up.

In the first minute of his speech at the Kirk Political Send Off, that dignified senior American Leader of all the People said this:

"I hate my political opponents!".

Only among MAGAbillies could a convicted felon, deadbeat, chiseler, liar and scofflaw be seen as heroic.
Want an explanation, at least a partial accounting for this weirdness?
Look at their twisted, makeup heavy, glittery, get rich quick churchtime hucksters.
It's religion as entertainment carnival and circus for nonthinkers and their manipulators.
Difference is, having traveled with a circus, show people actually deal with reality.

#56 | Posted by lfthndthrds

Absolutely. Trump had 11 counts of obstruction of justice from the (intentionally crippled) mueller investigation just stitting there at the Justice Department. Biden chose a moderate conservative judge to be the nation's chief prosecutor. That man merrick garland broke his oath of office to protect and defend the constitution from all enemies foreign AND DOMESTIC, and start charging trump with all the crimes he'd stacked up. Instead they did nothing except prosecute trump's foot soldiers for years until they ran out the clock. Simply charging him as an insurrectionist under the 14th ammendment would have barred trump from running again. Never investigated why the saudis gave trump's son in law 2 billion dollars. Never investigated the republicans who were asking trump for pardons after assisting in his fascist coup attempt. Never kicked out the news stations who INTENTIONALLY lied to the country about imaginary election fraud.

Biden was a ----- who was too stuck in the past to comprehend the actual fascist uprising being orchestrated right in front of his face. He really thought trump was just an abberation, Jan 6th was the event that would snap his cult out of their hypnosis, and republicans would go back to normal.

That miscalculation - that republicans aren't really that bad - is what ended the american experiment.

#57 | Posted by SpeakSoftly at 2025-09-26 07:50 PM

I'd go a big step further

On day 1 Biden should have had ------- arrested and sent to Gitmo and given him a swift military tribunal, found guilty and suffered the fate of a traitor.

Biden could have dared any of the Republicans in congress to say boo, threatening any co-conspirators with a similar fate.

He should then have removed the 3 SC justices ------- appointed as tainted by a traitor

and again, dared the Republicans to say boo.

He could have capped it off with a promise, if the country remained peaceful, to step down in '24 and allow for a full and open election.

------ got reelected because of the moral bankruptcy of the American electorate, i.e. people like you.

Americans had a choice between a rapist, conman, felon, grifter, thief, liar and, oh yeah, insurrectionist and a normal human being.

Americans chose the rapist

They had no excuse, they knew EXACTLY what he is.

It shouldn't have been close, but a significant number of Americans are vile despicable scum like you; the evidence being who they voted for.

Obfuscate all you want, that is a simple ------- truth.

#59 | Posted by truthhurts at 2025-09-26 08:36 PM

The Homan thing is a perfect example of magat scum vile, despicable behavior.

The -------- was caught red handed taking a bag full of cash. Something countless politicians have been arrested for.

------- magat scum drop the investigation.

ANY other administration would fire that fat ass the second the news broke.

Instead, the ------- administration says it was Biden essentially using lawfare against the ------- campaign.

BUT THE STORY DIDNT COME OUT DURING THE ELECTION!!

Most corrupt government, by far, in our nation's history.
