DOJ's Sworn Duty: Charge Trump to Uphold Justice for the Nation's Sake

Your days are numbered you horrible man

Message for Trump and the National Media: Mr. Trump: Shut up and get off the national stage; the National Media: Stop giving this man attention and coverage which he seeks and thrives on. Take that platform away from him and help us start to heal as a nation in distress due to the damage he has and still inflicts on the country.

New evidence is based on this current typical example here from SALON with this headline:

“Trump launches Truth Social war on Special Counsel's wife”

Trump and right-wingers claim special counsel Jack Smith's wife shows he can't be impartial

Trump raged online after finding out that the wife of the special counsel, Jack Smith, appointed by AG Garland, is a Democratic donor who was involved in a documentary film about Michelle Obama, which she has produced over 30 in her 20-year career, and that she also contributed $2,000 to Biden’s 2020 campaign  

S/C Smith was appointed by AG Garland to oversee two key investigations into Trump and all with the apparent goal of shielding the DOJ from accusations of partiality.

FYI: Trump is in the middle of two separate investigations by the DOJ: One regarding his involvement in the January 6 attack on the Capitol, and another into his keeping classified records from the White House in his Mar-a-Lago home after leaving office. 

The Trump Organization, and several Trump family members, are also involved in a civil case involving tax fraud launched by New York State AG  Letitia James. Trump continues to claim that the various charges brought against him in state and federal court are simply a witch-hunt perpetrated by his political enemies.

Smith’s wife, Katy Chevigny, was a producer on the Michelle Obama documentary: “Becoming” which was based on the former first lady's book with the same title.

Worse for Trump, it seems in his TRUTH Social rant is the fact that she also donated $2,000 to President Joe Biden's 2020 campaign (according to FEC records) which BTW is NOT a crime in any way. 

Trump wrote Tuesday night about Chevigny and Smith while also attaching screenshots of her Tweets supporting the Democratic Party while accusing the DOJ of being biased in their investigation against him saying:This is just a small amount of information from the wife of the hardline Radical Left Special Counsel (prosecutor), an acolyte of Eric Holder and Barack Hussein Obama.”

Eric Trump joined his father on the conservative social media website, attaching a screenshot of Chevigny's producer credit on the Wikipedia page as proof of a supposed vendetta against the former president, as he wrote: “The wife of the Special Counsel Biden chose to investigate @realDonaldTrump (his likely opponent in 2024) reportedly produced the Michelle Obama documentary. Yes America, you are reading this correctly.

Conservatives are up in arms over Chevigny's Democratic ties, claiming that Biden is using the Justice Department as a political weapon against Trump.

More GOP BS:

From Rep. Andrew Clyde (R-GA) who likened those who stormed the capitol on January 6 as tourists tweeted: You just can't make this stuff up. America cannot stand with a corrupt, two-tiered justice system.”

Former Trump spokesperson Taylor Budowich added on Twitter:No wonder Jack Smith accepted this special assignment … The swamp is hard at work!”

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) said in an interview with Steve Bannon:You would think that if the stated purpose to avoid any type of concern about bias were sincere, then they would at least check to see whether or not when you shake the family tree of the special counsel, any virulent Trump haters, “Never Trumpers,” Biden supporters fall out.”

Notably, many conservatives did not express the same indignation when Virginia “Ginni” Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, wrote to WI and AZ lawmakers telling them to overturn the results of the 2020 elections, and begging Trump then Chief of Staff Mark Meadows in her texts not to concede. 

My 2 Cents: Simple and direct for the DOJ work hard to get Trump behind bars ASAP and that will help the vast majority of the nation to reheal. 

Insulting wives like S/C Jack Smith’s and earlier many times for Sen. Mitch McConnell’s wife, Elaine Chao, with his nasty label: “Your China loving wife, Coco Chow.

FYI: DOJ by-the-book can be seen here keeping in mind this rock bottom principle: “No One is Above the Law.”

At the same time, however, all law enforcement at all levels must remain vigilant for the MAGA domestic terrorists are apt to react to a decision to jail Trump.

We must be prepared to stop them.

Thanks for stopping by.
