Trump Slams ‘Communist’ Persecution Of Conservatives While Speaking At DOJ
SUMMARY
President Donald Trump took the stage at the Department of Justice Friday, blasting what he called a “communist” persecution of conservatives under past leadership. “They turned this into the Department of Injustice,” he said, claiming feds targeted patriots while letting radicals off easy. Trump pointed to his November landslide as a “mandate” to dig into government corruption, vowing, “Those days are over.” He listed foes like Marc Elias—tied to the Steele dossier—and Jack Smith, who dropped cases against him pre-inauguration. Trump didn’t spare ex-AG Merrick Garland, Joe Biden, or Norm Eisen’s CREW, which pushed to boot him from Colorado’s ballot. “Bad people,” he called them, saying they tried to crush him with hoaxes, spying, and Mar-a-Lago raids. Sens. Grassley and Johnson just flagged anti-Trump agents snooping on his and Pence’s phones, fueling his fire. AG Pam Bondi kicked things off, praising Trump’s fight, and he promised to “expose” rogue feds and boot them out.
