They Don't Even Try To Hide It Anymore!

Trump is getting embolden now the Congress is deadlocked! It is something in plain sight something everyone just winked and nodded.

The DOJ Just Admitted to Weaponizing a Prosecution Against Trump’s Foes

A federal court threw out all charges against the Broadview Six—a group of protesters accused of obstructing a Chicago ICE facility—during a heated hearing on Thursday at which Justice Department officials apologized for egregious misconduct in securing the indictments. U.S. District Judge April Perry excoriated prosecutors for using illegal tactics to get the criminal charges past a skeptical grand jury, dressing down U.S. Attorney Andrew Boutros and his colleagues for their “incredibly shock[ing]” malfeasance. The Broadview Six will now walk free, and may even apply for President Donald Trump’s fund for victims of government “weaponization.”

A federal judge has blocked an attempt by the Trump administration to subpoena Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and other state officials, accusing the Justice Department of using its investigatory powers to retaliate against state officials for not cooperating with federal efforts to crack down on illegal immigration.

In a ruling unsealed Monday, U.S. District Judge Patrick Schiltz found the “dominant purpose” of the subpoenas was to “coerce Minnesota officials into assisting the federal government with enforcing civil immigration law and to harass and retaliate against them for failing to do so.”

And we saw it in the case the DOJ brought against the Federal Reserve:

Judge blocks DOJ's criminal probe of Federal Reserve, blasting it as political

A federal judge put the brakes on the Justice Department's criminal probe of the Federal Reserve, saying it was part of an improper campaign by the Trump administration to pressure the central bank into cutting interest rates more aggressively.

Judge James Boasberg quashed subpoenas that had been issued to the Fed in January, ostensibly seeking information about cost overruns on the renovation of the Fed's headquarters. At the time, Fed chairman Jerome Powell had called that a pretext. And Judge Boasberg agreed.

"The Government has offered no evidence whatsoever that Powell committed any crime other than displeasing the President," Boasberg writes in a newly-unsealed opinion. "There is abundant evidence that the subpoenas' dominant (if not sole) purpose is to harass and pressure Powell either to yield to the President or to resign and make way for a Fed Chair who will."

Like I wrote this morning, Trump knows that Congress is deadlocked and will not do anything! They are so emboldened that it is an open secret!

Here are just some of the people Trump's Justice Department has gone after:

• Letitia James
• Adam Schiff
• Tim Walz and other Minnesota Democratic officials 
• Jack Smith
• Liz Cheney 
• Anthony Fauci
• John Bolton
• Robert Garcia

There are also reports of the DOJ trying to investigate members of Congress for telling the military to obey the law. ABC News reported;

Several Democrats accused by President Donald Trump of "seditious behavior" defended their message to military members that they can refuse illegal order. The president and administration officials suggested the action could be punishable by law.

The video featuring six Democrats who served in the military or in the intelligence community set off more than a dozen social media posts by Trump, who called them "traitors" and said their action could be "punishable by death."

"I think it's important to say that there is nothing more American than standing up for the Constitution, that's what we were doing. President didn't like it, so now he calls for us to be hanged," Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly said on CNN's "The Source with Kaitlan Collins" on Thursday night.

Furthermore, Trump has appointed judges who put their beliefs before the Constitution. The Republicans refused Mitch McConnell/the Senate refused Obama's appointment to fill Justice Antonin Scalia's opening, saying mid-February was too close to the elections. Yet, that didn't stop them from putting Amy Coney Barrett on the bench just days before the 2020 election.

Trump, more than any other president, has weaponized the judiciary. He makes Nixon look like a saint.
