Trump Is Calling the Shots at the Justice Department

President Trump attacked former President Biden and former Special Counsel Jack Smith in an Oval Office screed.

Said Trump: “I think it was the worst weaponization of a political opponent in the history of the world… Deranged Jack Smith in my opinion is a criminal. I hope they’re gonna look into Weissmann too… Lisa Monaco should be looked at very strongly.”

The New York Times notes the reaction of top Justice Department officials: “They smiled, nodded and shuffled in place as he spoke.”
