If he is, good. Because that's what I voted for
jWeaponizing the DOJ is nothing new, is it, Raskin?
The Trump Administration is actually following the law. Puck face wouldnāt recognize the law if he tripped over a book of statutes!
Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) said Thursday on CNNās āOutFrontā that President Donald Trump is weaponizing the Justice Department by conducting a criminal investigation into New York State Attorney General Letitia Jamesā office.
Raskin said it was part of his āpolitical revenge tour.ā
Guest host Jim Sciutto asked, āWhen you look at these two cases, the civil fraud case, trial judge ruled Trump inflated his worth. And you look at the case against the NRA, a jury determined the NRA CEO misspent the organizationās funds. Anything criminal in those cases that you can perceive? And do you see this as evidence that he is now weaponizing the Justice Department?
Raskin said, āWell, of course he is. Heās on a political revenge tour. Look, in America, if you disagree with a prosecution or a civil lawsuit thatās been brought against you, then you mount a defense against it. Donald Trump had high-priced lawyers working for a defense against the civil fraud suit, but he was found guilty and fined $450 million in debt. He owes that is now worth more than a half billion dollars because he still hasnāt paid it. Itās the same thing with respect to the civil lawsuit against Wayne LaPierre. He lost his suit for having misspent millions of dollars that belonged to the NRA.ā
Do you blame Trump? The Dems put everyone through hell to retain power: threats of prison, some imprisoned with their rights ignored, people maimed and murdered all in the name of the Covid shot, children lost at leat 2 years of education and socialization, loved ones died without family present, health care became increasingly the channel for death. Those involved should be publicly hanged. Unless and until justice is served the crimes will only continue. So yes, retribution is just and needed.
I don't think it should be called retribution, let's call it justice
This pathetic POS needs to spend serious time behind bars.
Damn I love your statement ! Has such an exciting ring to it !
cry me a river dickhead...YEEEEEEER NEXT
Well, turnabout is fair play.
So what? If democrats did nothing illegal, then a weaponized DoJ can't hurt them. Nothing at all to worry about, dear Dems
Just look at Trump for proof of that. Democrats weaponized the DoJ against Trump- no biggie, he's a free man today because he did no wrong. Will Lady Justice not judge the democrats the same way?
And?
Good.
He looks dead.
We, of course he is you Dimwit!!!š
And well he should. The Democrats revealed problems in our legal system by their use of law fare, corrupt judges and collusion of officials determined to defeat political opponents. Trump is now working to repair and correct criminal activities of those who are entrusted to make or enforce laws but consider themselves above it
Just think about the term "weaponizing the DOJ" for a minute....I mean isn't that exactly what we want the Department of Justice to do. How else are we to bring justice to the criminals of which Raskin may well be one. I have no problem with the term; at least not now that we are trying to clean up the corruption in government.
This thing is beyond faggot
They very carefully use that word revenge. But revenge doesn't mean unwarranted, though that's how they frame it.
Revenge:the action of inflicting hurt or harm on someone for an injury or wrong suffered at their hands.
If any of the people who actually listen to people like Raskin actually knew what revenge meant, maybe they wouldn't... Ah fuck it. Yes they would. They're stupid.
Justice - "The impartial application of laws to ensure people are treated according to established rules, rights, and duties."
Justice is tied to law! Revenge shouldn't enter the equation.
Yes, and everyone treats each other with respect, there is no crime, and we have no need for money because we all share the load!
There is a difference between "Revenge" and "Justice". This is Justice we are seeing. Laws were broken.
No, the people demand the doj investigate and prosecute everyone who illegally and unconscionably wronged the freeman trump. Russiagate, weaponize jjuduciary, assassins. Screw you raskin. The people condemn you amd all the corrupt traitors we know the game now you frauds.
