President Trump publicly pressured the Justice Department on Friday to move against his political adversaries and complained that Attorney General William P.

Administration officials have expressed frustration in recent days about Trump’s publicly pressing his attorney general to bring indictments against his political foes, noting it could hurt his campaign and wondering among themselves if he is “trying to lose,” the person familiar with the matter said.

This article is meant to be part of a legal defense if anyone is indicted after the election. They were going to call it political whether it happened before or after anyway.

LIES. Pathetic lies. These are not the actions of a party that believes their lunkhead candidate is 16 points ahead of the President.

You know it is serious when the Compost assigns four journalists to write an article. (laughing as I type that) So hideous. It is time for bLM and Antfia to do a number on the Compost and the Slimes for that matter.

Yep. As more and more details come out, the propaganda will get shriller and shriller. The intelligence services, elites, and fake news media have to circle the wagons to protect themselves.

We’re comin’ for ya, Mac.
