‘Americans Should Be Enraged’: Reports Expose Unprecedented Corruption at Trump DOJ | “I wouldn’t even call it the Justice Department anymore. It’s become Trump’s personal law firm.”

That was always the intent. That is why Trump picks incompetent bootlickers to positions of authority

Harsh penalties should be a core platform piece of any serious democrat going forward. This kind of criminal behavior can’t be tolerated in a functional society.

They should be, but I get the feeling that after all the other things that Americans should be enraged at, this will also only enraged a small subset and those in power continue on unchallenged.

DOJ needs to be made fully independent of the executive.

A third of the country is enraged.
Another third is too stupid to pay attention.
And the final third is cheering it on and calling trump king.

This isn’t even being kept a secret by the Trump admin. He is openly giving orders to the DOJ on his stupid fucking truth social account in a completely unprecedented breach in the DOJ’s independence.

If Americans didn’t want the DoJ to be under the (tiny) thumb of a corrupt convicted criminal then they should have voted differently in 2024.

Every senator who voted to confirm AG Bondi and other staffers should be held accountable because this was foreseeable from the beginning.

A Hollywood casting department could not have found more appropriate characters to play the part of the Dictator’s evil sycophants.

We are enraged. Other than picketing the place (which I’m up for), what does the author suggest we do about it?

Why anyone is following any law is beyond me. It starts at the top. Our country has rotted and its up to us to do something about it as always. Goddamn fucking elite need a reset.

There is no justice. This was his plan. A truly weaponized department to do his bidding. The good news is (if there is any), the FBI and other departments still have very dedicated people who are trying their hardest to hold the line and fight the injustice.

And like everything he touches, turned into shit and runned by the most incompetent people

I mean they summoned Boebert to the Whitehouse to be confronted by the heads of the FBI, DOJ and their deputies. Who knows what she was threatened with to try to get her to take her name off the discharge petition.

This was all so predictable. He did it last time. This time it was going to be obviously worse.

Why does it feel like these stories are always 6 months old?…

The department of justice has been the GOP’s personal law firm since 1992.

The agencies of DHS, DOJ, DOGE have been weaponized, politicalized, militarized, to serve one. The optics of DHS and DOJ appear to be the playbook of the “Third Reich,” DOJ acts as Gestapo; DHS acts as SS; and DOGE acts as the SD.

Reminder that Pam Bondi was picked because she already accepted a 50k bribe from Trump in the past to drop cases against him in Florida.

This is what happens when you put corrupt criminals in charge of “justice.”

These corrupt clowns are exactly who 77 million voters wanted in control. Your Republican neighbors, coworkers and family members actually CHOSE the GOP, knowing full well how despicable, deceitful and corrupt they are. There is no excuse for voting Republican. We’ve watched them lie, cheat, steal, destroy, pervert justice and attack the American people, our democracy, constitution and institutions for nearly 10 years. This country cannot survive this onslaught of lawlessness in the federal government. Democracy is collapsing under the voters’ decisions last November. Another 90 million eligible voters chose not to bother preventing it, by just abandoning their own right to vote. We (not the 75 million of us who voted for Democrats) literally chose to destroy our country from within. I don’t think this nation will ever recover.

It’s, of course, bad that Trump is doing this, but what a crappy system this is that allows presidents to do things like this. Presidential pardons, what bullshit.. separation of power, my butt.

If the Democrats take over Congress in 2026, can you imagine the hearings and investigations in 2027?

Yeah but Americans won’t care. They can only see as far as their grocery bill, that’s where the majority of their caring ends.
