Former Attorney General Eric Holder in an interview with MSNBC's Joy Reid warned that American democracy could end with Donald Trump being reelected to the presidency and that a second term would create a "weaponized Department of Justice."
REID: And the thing is, I think what a lot of people, when we talk about the January 6 insurrection, which was an insurrection, part of it was a denial of the right to vote, right?
HOLDER: Right.
REID: It was essentially saying that, in the states where Donald Trump, the swing states where Donald Trump lost, those voters in predominantly black parts of that state are illegitimate, that their votes are illegitimate and that Trump should be awarded the presidency despite that.
It was an attempt also to misuse the Justice Department for those ends. So I want to talk about the Justice Department, which you, of course, used to run. Donald Trump is vowing to use the Justice Department if he gets back into the White House to prosecute and persecute his political enemies.
Talk to me about the risks of his being able to actually accomplish that, because, in a second term, there would be no normies left. There would be people like this guy. Let me see if I have it. This is Mike Davis. This is somebody who has claimed that he is in line to potentially be attorney general of the United States. Here's what he's saying he would do with that job.

MIKE DAVIS, POTENTIAL TRUMP ACTING ATTORNEY GENERAL: I will rain health on Washington, D.C. We have talked about this, but I have five lists ready to go, and they're growing.

FUEH
Unrecognizable to globalist race baiters.
He was ALREADY president!
The United States that I knew and loves has been gone for a while. Four years of Trump did not bring it back, though that was better than what we have now.
I sure know and love when Waco burned.
Thanks for the memories Eric…

Eric Holder, the ‘Look London, Talk Tokyo’ guy. I had forgotten about him.
Speed the Day
F off Holder.
Ever since 2008 and you and Obama have made the US a bizarro land and unrecognizable.
What he loves bears no resemblance to the country I grew up in and love.

Has anybody seen them in the past few years?
The part about "we all" means the Americans that aren't, but don't know it . . . . yet.
There IS at least one generation that, like my Filipina wife, has no concept of Mickey Mouse, Superman, Beaver Cleaver, American Flyer sleds (etc. ad infinitum)
Most of my generation (I'm 76) will immediately relate to 1984 or Kurt Vonnegut Jr., or "king of the hill", or Radar's NEHI, but this generation I cite has no reference in their mind bank to associate to.
lol
Is there a statute of limitations on Contempt of Congress?
Back in the USSR!
You don’t know how lucky you are!
All thanks to Uncle Joe!
Don’t you know?
“Loving” Eric Holder’s America is a surefire sign of Stockholm syndrome.
Everything and anything resembling a Constitutional Government would be evil and hated by the New American CCP.
Eric should have a shot of vodka with Vladmir.
Vlad is so sad the CCCP is no more.
