Trump's DOJ Showdown: Accountability or Just Political Dodgeball?
In a dazzling eight-month pivot, President Trump went full circle on weaponizing justice, demanding prosecutions from Attorney General Pam Bondi against big names like James Comey, Adam Schiff, and Letitia Jamesāall his self-declared 'corrupt fraudsters'āfor 'OVER NOTHING' despite five indictments and two impeachments already under his belt. His Saturday Truth Social shout-out screamed 'JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED, NOW!!!' with the urgency of a prime-time infomercial. But when U.S. Attorney Erik Siebert reportedly wouldn't play ball and resigned Friday, the pressure cooker exploded. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavittās bulletproof logic blamed Biden for causing offense while defending the president's 'accountability' crusade, sparking bipartisan eyerolls and warnings from Sen. Schumer about Americaās unexpected express trip to dictatorship-ville.

Trump demands DOJ prosecutions for his 'perceived enemies' after vowing 'never again' to politicize justice. It's like the guy returning a library book and accusing the librarian of theft for asking nicely.
When Trump says 'justice must be served now,' he means his enemiesā trials should be on a fast-food schedule with zero evidence required.
White House logic 101: weaponizing weaponization is justice. Next meeting: how to make a roundtable square again.
