Trump is openly directing the Justice Department to go after his political adversaries, adding to a sense of unease inside the department about job security and ethical obligations.
Even in an era of nonstop social media posts, Trump’s weekend update stopped many government attorneys in their tracks. The president said he wanted to see justice served.
“We can’t delay any longer, it’s killing our reputation and credibility,” he wrote.
What Trump said couldn’t wait are criminal investigations of his most prominent critics: former FBI Director Jim Comey, New York Attorney General Letitia James, and California Democratic Sen. Adam Schiff.
Destroying the judiciary is not a distraction, it’s part of the fascism. Can we stop posting these on every single story?
I agree with you 100%. I do also feel that those files may be the Achilles heel as both sides of the aisle (that haven’t actually engaged in those activities, which I believe and hope are the vast majority) can agree on.
His interest in underage girls was well documented before he was even elected the first time. I can’t imagine what this could possible change. If anything, the Epstein files are a distraction from these real, actual harms being committed right now. Even Republicans are starting to turn against some of the things he’s doing. I think that’s where we should focus.
Yeah but we know this was indeed the first time there was hesitation within the core maga, let alone a broader negative effect with swing voters.
It’s pretty clear the Epstein files hit differently than almost anything else.
