Judge Wolf Roasts Trump: From Ford to Furious Trump-Takedown
KEY POINTS
- ā¢Mark Wolf resigned as a federal judge, criticizing Trump for using the law for partisan purposes.
- ā¢In his op-ed, Wolf expressed concern over Trump's treatment of adversaries versus friends and donors.
- ā¢Wolf stated he could no longer remain silent about the White House's assault on the rule of law.
Mark Wolf, the Massachusetts federal judge appointed back when mullets were cool (1985), just dropped his gavel and resignation letter simultaneously last Friday, revealing in a Sunday Atlantic op-ed that Trump treats the law like his personal Netflix queue ā cherry-picking investigations to avoid friends and donors while bingeing enemies. Wolf, who survived the aftermath of Watergate break-ins in the 70s DOJ, says Trumpās legal conduct makes Nixon look like a sneaky kid playing hide-and-seek. Calling out Trump's routine disregard for DOJ's own 'beyond reasonable doubt' rule, Wolf declared silence intolerable and plans to morph into a justice warrior spokesperson. Meanwhile, the White House's Abigail Jackson fired back that judges with 'personal agendas' should at least RSVP with a resignation before whining, proving political drama is truly bipartisan performance art.

When a Reagan-appointed judge says Trumpās legal ethics are āroutine and overtā Nixon-level shady, you know the hot tea is TV-series worthy. Wolf is out here resigning to spill tea on Trumpās DOJ sitcom where friends donāt get prosecuted because friendship > justice.
Mark Wolf just casually compared Trumpās lawyering to Watergate reruns. Who knew 1970s scandals had sequels on Netflix with worse plotlines and more tweeters.
The DOJ's official rule: donāt indict unless you can prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Trumpās rule? Pick your enemies like DLC characters in a revenge game.
