The Department of Justice has failed to secure and indictment against Democrats who recorded a video and suggested to military members that they should disobey lawful orders.
I know, they said ‘unlawful orders’ in the video. But everyone knows they wanted the military to mutiny against Trump and his immigration crackdown around the country, as well as his defense against America against these foreign drug dealers.
Here’s the news:
WASHINGTON — The Trump administration tried and failed on Tuesday to secure an indictment in connection with a video featuring six Democratic lawmakers urging members of the military and intelligence communities not to comply with unlawful orders, three sources familiar with the matter told NBC News.
It was not clear how many of the lawmakers the Trump administration attempted to indict, or if the failed attempt will be addressed in a future court hearing.
The indictment pursued by the office of U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro is the latest example of the Justice Department targeting the president’s perceived political opponents. The government attorneys assigned to the case are political appointees, not career Justice Department prosecutors, according to a source familiar with the investigation.
A Justice Department spokesman and a spokesman for the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia did not immediately respond to a request for comment Tuesday night.
The FBI had sought interviews with the six members of Congress who appeared in the video that was posted to social media in November: Reps. Jason Crow of Colorado; Maggie Goodlander of New Hampshire; and Chris Deluzio and Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania; along with Sens. Mark Kelly of Arizona; and Elissa Slotkin of Michigan.
“The president’s perceived political opponents”??? How about we call them America’s political opponents, because that’s exactly what they became when they suggested the military mutiny against Trump.
I never thought this prosecution would actually work – and it still might – but I can’t blame the DOJ for trying after what these Democrats pulled.
