47's weaponization of the DOJ shows the US is now a dictatorship

[Jingthing]

I and many other people warning of the danger that is Trump (before and after the election) to American democracy have been accused by both maga cult members and just people who haven't been paying attention of indulging in hyperbole.

 

No.

 

You were wrong,

 

It was not hyperbole.

 

In fact it is much worse than most people making the warnings thought it would be. I include myself in that. I was sure it would be very bad, but not this bad.

 

The DOJ of course is just one part, but a massively important part, of the emerging Trump dictatorship. 

 

But it is very illustrative of what his regime is doing across every aspect of American life.

 

Trump contorting justice department into his ‘personal weapon’, experts warn | Trump administration | The Guardian

As Donald Trump’s Department of Justice expands investigations of his foes and ousts dozens of lawyers and staff who worked on cases targeting himself and his allies, scholars and ex-prosecutors say the rule of law is under siege in the US as the department morphs into Trump’s “personal weapon”.

The justice department’s politicization to please Trump was underscored by an announcement on 23 July of a new “ strike force” to investigate unsubstantiated charges that ex-president Barack Obama and top officials conspired to hurt Trump’s 2016 campaign and his presidency with inquiries into Russian influence operations to help Trump win, say critics.

The announcement came the day after Trump dodged queries from reporters about the justice department’s failure to produce long-promised files about the notorious sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, and pivoted to blast Obama without evidence for “treason”. Trump’s conspiratorial charge echoed dubious claims by his national intelligence director, Tulsi Gabbard, who days before called for a justice department inquiry into a purported “treasonous conspiracy”.

unsubstantiated by WHOM? the media outlets funded by his enemies?

 

you don't think people in power fight amongst themselves and play dirty tricks and try to take each other down?

 

maybe Barack and other top officials DID conspire. 

 

how do you know what's going on behind the scenes?

 

your fake news doesn't prove anything. 

 

 

[Jingthing]

This video which includes an extensive interview with a former DOJ federal prosecutor who was actually doing his job to defend the constitution instead of following orders of the current president illustrates my point dramatically. There has never been anything like this in American history. Yes we did it to ourselves by putting Trump in power, but it's high time more people face up to what has happened.

Are we supposed to forget the left tried for a decade to cook up fake crimes to jail Trump with? 2 hoax impeachments? Navarro and Bannon actually jailed. Lawfare at it's most pure.

 

Bro, stand back and standy by. This is PAYBACK time. Sweet KARMA. 

Schiff, Pelosi, the empty shell of Biden, his brothers, sisters, son, wife, Cheney, Kinzinger, Schumer, Hillary, Bragg, James, Smith, Willis, Merchan, Engoron etc etc will all be banged up in supermax for their treasonous conspiracies. And the best part is, you guys started it all with your stupid witch-hunt🤣😂😅

Nothing to do with the topic which is that the DOJ is supposed to be independent and now under dictator Trump is clearly not.

But I get it. People in the maga bubble don't care.

Remember when the op and others were sure trump would go to jail and Biden was on point.

The DOJ has never been independent.   The DOJ is part of the executive branch and is headed by a political appointee.

Judging by the non existent coverage of it on the World News Forums of the world !

It either means two things!

It would seriously give Trump a Political advantage big time or

Trump's Doj & State Authorities investigating everything involving  Raw Declassified Intel is over the target, like the Enola Gay was dropping the A Bomb.

Oh my! The vapors run thick in the fever swamps of MAGAstan!

 

Trump was investigated BECAUSE he committed actual crimes.

 

A quid pro quo withholding already approved equipment to Ukraine in return for fabricated junk about Biden is a crime.

 

Stealing hundreds of classified documents is a crime.

 

Fraudulent claims on bank loan and insurance applications is a crime.

 

Fomenting an attack on the Capitol, after calling his losers to DC for the 6th is a crime.

 

Pressuring a SecState of GA to "just find me 11,780 votes" is a crime.

 

Having his Campaign Chair travel to Spain to give GRU asset Konstantin Kilimnik internal polling data is willful cooperation with a foreign power to influence a US election. That meeting is not in dispute, not even by the Republican Senators who sat on SSCI and authored the report on Russiagate.

 

Now he wants to go after Obama, because the petulant child Trump is still miffed over a joke Obama told more than a decade ago at the White House Correspondents Dinner.

 

Gabbard claims she "found" evidence of Obama's guilt, when she found absolutely nothing. She barked about a meeting Obama held, a meeting that was known when it happened and was thoroughly investigated by the SC Trump appointed, John Durham.

 

Only those with the IQ of a turnip, which is to say MAGAnistas, are dumb enough to not understand this.

Good grief already, now that the tables have turned on the left, they have found themselves faced with the blowback of their filthy shenanigans and dirtbag misdeeds of keeling over the DOJ that is now in the process of righting itself. Now they have nothing except to scream and holler as the vice tightens on their miserable existence.

Now the commerce department is demanding 15% fees for export license  of top end AI chips to China. Export license is given based on national security and should not be based on a fees.

Yes, even Trump has had to pay for a fraction of the crimes he has committed. Unfortunately, he has not yet had to stand trial for the Jan 6th 2021 coup attempt. For that he deserves one punishment, and one punishment only.

[ronnie50]

The DOJ is supposed to act independantly of the White House. That's the whole idea of separation to ensure checks and balances. If the Administration, the Congress, the Supreme Court and the DOJ are all having a circle j#rk, then there is no separation and no checks or balances. Meantime, the President is going to deploy soldiers onto the streets of the nation's capitol - just because he wants to. If you still can't, by now, see how your Republic and its democracy are coming apart at the seems, then I guess you never will - or maybe until someone comes to arrest your loved ones.

Trump is appointing idiots while career prosecutors are leaving the DOJ.

[Patong2021]

Hysterical over the top claims do not support a position. The USA is not a dictatorship. Trump is using all the powers that he has. It is up to the other branches of government to intervene if they believe it is not right. He has not stopped their intervention.

You can call the Trump administration doctrinaire or brutal,  but that's not a dictatorship.

Not really. If  prosecutors are incompetent, then  criminals will walk. it will be the  general population  who suffers, and that will not be felt for years, long after trump is retired.

The reality is that most criminals are poor and rely on public defenders. They will  have a similar problem as funding for public defenders is slashed  and lawyers will not have time for all the cases. people will be forced to accept plea deals.
