CNN’s Anderson Cooper on Friday accused President Donald Trump of trying to turn the United States into a banana republic, given that he is “weaponizing the military.”
While discussing the Department of Justice is dropping its investigation into former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, Copper said, “It fits into the larger theme of weaponizing the Department of Justice against perceived enemies or just people the president doesn’t like.”
He continued, “There was a transcript released today in which the judge in this case previously told Justice Department attorneys that the handling of the case was disturbing in the judge’s words and getting close to a banana republic. Do you agree?”
McCabe said, “I absolutely agree. That’s one of the things that concerns me most about not just the president, but the way that the Justice Department has handled these matters that are clearly so important to this president. We don’t expect to live in a country where the previewed political enemies of the president suddenly become the subjects of criminal investigations in a pursuit to throw political enemies in jail.”

I’m for their worst nightmare becoming reality.
The prancing coprophage has nothing of merit to add to the conversation, except that his contrived histrionics can be funny, if you’re in the mood for idiocy.
Sheesh! Military by its very nature is weaponized. Without weapons there is no military.
He’s got the POTUS mixed up with the Kenyan Usurper....again.
Having weaponized the courts, the FBI, DOJ, CIA and NSC and they are now waking up to he fact that this is a banana republic
Same people telling us for years to trust FBI/CIA over our elected officials are now warning of a banana republic?
Another projection special from a left-wing tool.
We’re being lectured to by a liar on how lying is evil! You can’t make this up!
Didn’t seem to bother anybody when Obama weaponized the NSA, the FBI, the CIA, the IRS, right? As long as his allies do such things it’s for the greater good.
And these clowns continue to wonder why people will never, under any government circumstance, give up our guns.
How... how stupid can he be?
If the DOJ was actually "weaponized" as you and your butt-buddy Pooper claim, your ass would have already been rotting in a Federal prison for the past 3+ years Andy.
If that’s not projection there’s no such thing.
Weaponizing the military?! What the hell..... it’s already a weapon. If President Trump truly weaponized the military the 82nd would be storming the CNN studios.....
The military and cops are the things that SHOULD be weaponized, but then Anderson Pooper is used to getting things ass-backwards.
Well, I’d say Kathy Griffin was weaponized on their New Year’s Eve shows.
Where was this hack when Obama was using the IRS to harass conservative non-profits?
Obama beat him to it, except he castrated the military and weaponized the civilian government apparachiks.
