Donald Trump wanted to use the United States Department of Justice to go after late-night comedians who made fun of him, Rolling Stone reports.
“As president, Trump briefly attempted to get Justice officials to twist campaign finance laws and the federal equal-time rule to declare that anti-Trump material broadcast by Saturday Night Live, Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert, and others was somehow illegal.”
