President Trump Twists Idea of Justice to Serve His Interests – Day That Was | MSNBC

An emboldened President Donald Trump is leaning on the Department of Justice to help his friends and pursue his enemies. Just this week, the DOJ overruled federal prosecutors who had recommended a seven- to nine-year prison sentence for Trump confidant Roger Stone, and has opened an inquiry into the FBI interview at the heart of Trump ally Michael Flynn’s guilty plea. The DOJ also finally dropped an investigation into former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, after finding no evidence to support charges against him.

    1. It’s what it’s like to live in Tubby’s mind, just after the Big Macs and just before a session on the gold-plated toilet. Singing to himself, “Trump’s gonna dump, ohhh yeahhhh…”

    1. @Chuck Ster we are glad if we want a malignant narcissist in the White House. How very sad the malignant narcissist infects those, like you, with a trump delusional syndrome. Nasty virus, that.

    1. @Gabriel Harris It totally does. I’ve tried going thru the comments, can’t find any comment that names the song/band

  1. What, in your wildest imaginings would lead you to believe that the DOJ has ANYTHING to do with the search for “justice”?

    1. @tonak1 name 2 that don’t begin with “Fox”.

      Birtherism is just a political way of saying “I’m a racist”.

      Republicans controlled House AND Senate while they spent 4 years investigating Benghazi, Uranium One and Hillary’s server and COULD NOT PRODUCE A SINGLE INDICTMENT. Even the DOJ Inspector General has found no crimes committed by FBI in Russia probe, yet the MAGAts still continue to spout these disproven lies.

      Not the media, or the Democrats. It is the Republicans who push these lies on the American people.

    2. @steve stamboldjiev Here we go, call an opposing view as being racist, particularly when dealing with obysmal’s highly suspicious certificates. You’re placing your “faith” in a fraud.

    3. @ScoringBox Chelsea Manning did 7 YEARS and she was not a buddy of Obama .
      Big difference S..T for brains.
      Trump has not got to pardoning his butt buddies yet but don’t worry that will be next .
      Stop supporting this traitor to the constitution the justice system and the people .
      Traitor.

    1. MasterWayneDK58 : designed to trigger fight/flight hormones for emotional reinforcement – uneccessary and unprofessional.

  3. “The presence of chaos, change, poor management, and bullying in an organization may not … be causally linked to each other but rather to the presence of Corporate Psychopaths who, as toxic leaders, cause each of these to exist simultaneously.”
