What good is being president if you can’t instruct your justice department to investigate the woman you raped? Excuse me! I thought this was America!

All pretenses of not being a personal bludgeon have been dropped.
Was there any pretense before?
Well corporate media outlets held a pretense to toe the line and try to keep social democratic movements from gaining popularity by pretending all is normal, all is well.
Sure, when it comes to media, but the pretense of the doj not being a cudgel is what i meant
Actually she is his adjudicated rape victim, not accuser
CNN is owned by a MAGA billionaire shithead and the use of the word "accuser" instead of "sexual assault survivor" is likely intentional.

Literal political weaponization to go after a victim of your leader. The Republican party is so despicable...

Imagine thinking deplorable doesn't define a republican, especially with actions like these and days like Jan 6th under their belt.
Accuser makes it sound like he was not found guilty of rape. If Trump is not impeached the US will be rightly viewed as an autocratic banana republic.
I feel like we blew past banana republic a while back and are onto deciding whether we're a nation of laws at all anymore. The idea that the US is a democracy is laughable.

First he raped her. Then he violated her. Now he will try to kill her. I want her on a coin.
She should get the entire slush fund.
^ This.
Cannot wait to see some reporter or politician ask Todd Blanche if she's eligible for the money.
Why is this not an Onion headline?
Is this the same administration that said Biden weaponized the DOJ?
Every accusation is a confession of either what the Repedopublicans are already doing, or what they plan to do.
Every. Time.

OK, but if she wins again Trump gets hanged. Deal?
Nah, the fix is in. Trump's administration doesn't even pretend to be on the up and up. Openly corrupt and the conservative wing has lost its mind more than usual to approve the behavior, whether it's in courts or congress.
They are going to toss her in prison for daring to inconvenience dear leader.
This justice department is very incompetent. The only political prosecution they ever got to a trial I can remember is the guy who threw a sandwich at one of their thugs, and the jury threw that shit out.
Everything else has been dismissed because this is the worst bunch of lawyers to ever lawyer.
2 years ago, career attorneys with decades of experience would drop everything to get a job in the justice department because it was so prestigious. Now they're having trouble recruiting kids straight out of law school graduating at the bottom of their class.
And federal judges are DONE with these clowns. It's not just a presumption of innocence for the defendant. The justices's default assumptions are increasingly that the justice department is actively lying.
STOP. CALLING. IT. THE. JUSTICE. DEPARTMENT.
It is the JUSTIFICATION Department.

The GOP just HATES the law. They must despise having a Constitution which establishes a country of laws since they allow this kind of autocratic dictator shit to keep going on under their seal of approval.
Wilholt's law:
Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.
Will no one rid us of this turbulent ~~priest~~ Todd Blanche?
God I'm so sick of this entire corrupt administration and their fucking childish vindictive bullshit.
The irony of him drawing more attention to this through his vendetta.

Good thing they just created a fund for people who are victims of a weaponized justice system.
/s
Hasn't he given her enough money? You already know she's unforgivably litigious, so you give her another reason to sue, after the judge inevitably throws out this case, like they've thrown out every one of these cases?
He hasn't paid a cent
And it sounds a lot like you're accusing her of being vexatious

I didn't rape that woman, I only rape children. I didn’t loose the 2020 election. My very fine phone call with Georgia proves that. 🫲🍊🫱
"Babe wake up, new most corrupt thing ever just dropped"
Political weaponization/slush fund compensation incoming? No? What do you mean corruption?
Well, some people no doubt thought the orange buffoon was preferable to a woman in a powersuit with a funny laugh...
I think he thinks he's dying and he doesn't want a rape on his record before he dies. Whether or not he's actually dying, is anyone's guess.
I think he's just getting angrier, like dementia patients often do. Also, he needs a distraction from the Iran war, which was a distraction from the Epstein files, which was a distraction from...
