WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump spent his first week post-impeachment asserting his dominance over the Department of Justice in a bid to exact revenge on his enemies and deliver rewards to his allies — the sudden, dramatic escalation of a long-running campaign to solidify his control over legal matters, and remove or sideline the remaining independent voices within his administration.
With the impeachment behind him, Trump's advisers say there is little incentive for him to hold his fire. With few, if any, dissenting voices left in his orbit, aides and advisers have been cheering on his moves, saying he is ridding his administration of “snakes” and fighting back against a corrupt “deep state” — support that has emboldened Trump in the days since his Senate acquittal....
Trump's defiance seems to have buoyed aides along with the passing of the cloud of impeachment, and with the election still more than eight months away, there is little internal fear of political consequences for the current swirl of rage and retribution, campaign advisers said.

No bias in that headline. Nope, none at all. /s
Look at the author’s name....”Pettypiece”
Democrats failed to kill the king. Now they’re whining at his defiance of them.
Tuco could have told them that: “If you must shoot, shoot! Don’t talk”.
Article author.
Does a woman named Shannon Pettypiece really exist? Did she go to an all girl private school and then modeled for shampoo and conditioner ads for magazines while going to a private women’s college?
” the current swirl of rage and retribution”
Yeah, perfectly objective. / off
What rage and retribution??
President doesn’t care. Media didn’t make him and they can’t unmake him.
Retribution? I call it”doing the necessary”.
Writer’s name says it all.
The so called free press got way too accustomed to republican presidents being pushovers. Now they’re sniveling like my sister’s kids. It’s not enough that Trump and his people let McCabe, Comey, Brennan, Obama and Clinton skate. Democrats always bitch they’re getting screwed when they never go to jail
If the tables were turned, a Democrat President would be doing exactly the same thing with plaudits from the media.
Trump has every right to clean house and he’s only getting started...
I can only hope that seditious and traitorous behavior is punished to the max at all levels. No quarter.
Let me know if you find any.
This ain’t the big get even.
Tuco could have told them that: “If you must shoot, shoot! Don’t talk”.
= = = = = = = = = =
OR
If you are going to shoot ‘me’, better shoot to kill because if ‘I’ live, you will be dismembered.
AND, that is NOT a threat, it is a promise!!!!
Fair?
“....remove or sideline the remaining independent voices within his administration....”
“....few, if any, dissenting voices left in his orbit....”
“....current swirl of rage and retribution....”
You think these are fair characterizations?
From that headline you’d think they were talking about Mussillini or Sadam Husein.
Sheesh, the swamp will never give him a fair break. It’s also because they think our votes should never count.
Good.
Make them fear you. They certainly would not try these antics against a strong Democrat.
After re-election night, go on a tare of firing every previous admin hold-over.
THESE PEOPLE...MEDIA...REALLY ARE NUTS.
I SEE A PRESIDENT TRUMP WHO IS VERY HAPPY, VERY HAPPY INDEED!!!
They would love it to be otherwise, but it ain’t.
He’s right NBC is worse than CNN.
