What about weaponizing the DOJ to pursue political opponents like the political prisoners from the Jan 6 mostly peaceful protest? Or Peter Navarro and Steve Bannon for being in Contempt of Congress - something no Democrat was charged with despite Lois Lerner, Eric Holder and Merrick Garland being held to be in Contempt of Congress? Or jailing grandmothers who pray in front of abortion clinics? These are just some of the more egregious examples of the federal government pursuing their political opponents. Several local Democrat jurisdictions have done likewise.

Multiple people have obtained political asylum in Belarus and Russia for fear of persecution by the Biden DOJ. Tara Reade who credibly accused Biden of rape is among them.
