‘Dangerous abuse of power’: lawmakers sound alarm over Comey indictment Democrats and legal experts say indictment is latest sign Trump is turning justice system into weapon to silence critics

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...tment-reaction


Biden did the same thing for 4 years including ordering U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland to make up anything to throw Trump in prison during the several attempts in NY State and Georgia State by Leticia James and Fani Willis, who is now in trouble

But did the Democrat lawmakers sound any alarms then?

Talk about dripping with irony.

... The Dangerous Abuse of Power was Comey tryin' to force out
President Trump... The trial is gonna expose all that.
Comey surely believes he's "home free" with a trial in liberal land
and a liberal judge.

... Let's see! ...

Democrats are all about rules for us but not for them.

No One cares what she thinks.

We'll see that beautiful bean footage when it comes to the grand jury.

You reap what you sow.

Doesn’t anyone remember the Saturday Night Massacre?

The last time the president used the Justice Department this way it led the Republican party to threaten Nixon with impeachment and eventually the resignation of the president.

Let’s look at the timeline.

One federal prosecutor, U.S. Attorney Erik Siebert, resigned rather than secure an indictment.

Trump sends a direct message to Pam Bondi via Truth Social.
He Writes:

Pam: I have reviewed over 30 statements and posts saying that, essentially, “same old story as last time, all talk, no action. Nothing is being done. What about Comey, Adam “Shifty” Schiff, Leticia??? They’re all guilty as hell, but nothing is going to be done.” Then we almost put in a Democrat supported U.S. Attorney, in Virginia, with a really bad Republican past. A Woke RINO, who was never going to do his job. That’s why two of the worst Dem Senators PUSHED him so hard. He even lied to the media and said he quit, and that we had no case. No, I fired him, and there is a GREAT CASE, and many lawyers, and legal pundits, say so. Lindsey Halligan is a really good lawyer, and likes you, a lot. We can’t delay any longer, it’s killing our reputation and credibility. They impeached me twice, and indicted me (5 times!), OVER NOTHING. JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED, NOW!!! President DJT

Then he appoints a hand picked attorney, Lindsay Halligan a former Miss Colorado contestant and Florida home insurance litigator whose job was to be the woke police at the Smithsonian, to the role of Attorney General just to get an indictment.

That results in an indictment for two of three counts and a one and a half page indictment letter signed by no one else in the justice department but Lindsay Halligan. Which is unusual itself that no one else wanted their names on it.

This is so blatantly a personal vendetta against James Comey that it crosses the line into dictatorial behavior.

This is the kind of thing that should get the Senate to act but won’t because they are too scared of retribution themselves to follow their oath to the constitution.

Trump's abuse of power is exponentially greater. He has stated he can do anything because he is President. Even members of his own party express concern.

try not to embarrass you when I point out that you're
woefully misinformed.

... You obviously don't understand how and why the liberal
louse Erik Siebert "took the case"... It wasn't that
"nobody else" wanted it, mate. ... He Took The Case To
Make Certain There Were NO CHARGES Brought Against Comey!

... And Why??

... Because Erik's in-lawed Father (his Wife's Dad)
just happens to be a Godparent of Comey's Daughter!

... Do Ya think that FACT should have been DISCLOSED
BEFORE Siebert made his decision on things?? ....

... No bleedin' wonder Siebert was FIRED from this.

... ... But keep on letting the LYING
liberal media do yer thinking for ya.
Though, PLEASE try not to let yer hatred of Trump surely
cloud yer judgement.

.... Ya know... this kind o' thing - biased people who
step in to weaponise the government against Trump, needs
to be looked at by Congress...
