   🧵 via Katie Phang: 1/...

   Let's be clear:

   #Trump visiting the DOJ today is NOT NORMAL.

   He will use this time to threaten his enemies with deploying the DOJ against them and to declare that he is weaponizing the federal government against his opponents.

     6/ I lied. Phang is too on the nose to ignore:

     Trump now praising Judge Aileen Cannon. He denies knowing who she is, but simultaneously admits that he appointed her to the bench.

     So he appointed a judge about whom he has no idea?

     Steve's Place repeated this.

     5/ That's all from me on this. I rarely share his words, but Katie Phang was so incensed, I wanted to share HERS.

     Via Rupar:

     Trump on Washington DC: "If the administration can't do the job, we're gonna have to take it back and run it through the federal government."

     3/ More:

     Trump now calling former leadership and staff at the DOJ as "hacks" and that they "weaponized" agencies to subvert the "will of the people."

     Trump says that they "spied" on his campaign and "persecuted" his family.

     Trump says that former DOJ "terrorized the innocent."

     THERE IS NO MANDATE.

     The fact that Trump is delivering such highly politicized remarks, as well as some lies, at the Department of Justice is outrageous and disgraceful.

     2/ More:

     Trump: "We are restoring equal justice under the rule of law."

     Irony continues to die.

     Trump now praising Todd Blanche and Emil Bove who both represented Trump when he lost his NY criminal trial and was convicted of 34 felonies.

     Trump saying that Mike Flynn unnecessarily "went through Hell."

     It would great if the #NYT and/or #WaPo covered these contradictory claims with the same zeal they demonstrated when Biden got a name wrong. I know that's asking for too much but a girl can dream.
