Judge Wolf Roasts Trump: From Ford to Furious Trump-Takedown
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.
