Trump Orders DOJ To Investigate Prominent Critic in Shocking Oval Office Remarks: ‘I Think He’s Guilty of Treason’

[Seymour Flops]

The investigation, if there is one, will be based on Taylor's 1st A protected right to express an opinion and write a book. Not anything illegal. There has to be more of a predicate to start an investigation than a baseless accusation.

Amazing how you know all the detail of the investigation when it has barely started.

Do you remember what happened to M. Cohen when trump learned Cohen was writing a book critical of trump?

Judge finds Michael Cohen’s return to prison ‘retaliatory,’ orders his release

Cohen had refused to sign a form that would have barred him from speaking in public, including by publishing a book, as a condition of home confinement.

According to your own link, the investigation is about leaking classified information not writing a book.

Innocent people cooperate fully with investigations, and have no need to fear them.

Yes, he acted like a jerk, so he lost the privilege of serving his time for his crimes at home.

Seriously? Democrats have investigated their number one critic for eight years now.

For real crimes, not Trump’s made-up bullshit!

How much more of this are Trump supporters going to see before they understand that they support a dictator and fascism? They say people voted for lower prices. This isn't lowering prices or stopping inflation.

Trump Orders DOJ To Investigate Prominent Critic in Shocking Oval Office Remarks: ‘I Think He’s Guilty of Treason’​

President Donald Trump directed the Justice Department to investigate former Homeland Security official Miles Taylor over his “anonymous” essay and book hammering Trump during his first term. Trump went so far as to accuse Taylor of committing treason, a capital offense, for writing about what he saw during Trump’s first term.

Trump also ordered the DOJ to investigate Chris Krebs, Trump’s election security director during his first term. Trump wildly suggested Krebs was part of an effort to steal the 2020 election as Krebs repeatedly said there was no evidence of fraud that he could find.

White House staff secretary Will Scharf handed Trump a series of executive orders in the Oval Office on Wednesday and offered a quick summary of each one.

“The central memorandum we have for you relates to Miles Taylor. You may recall that Miles Taylor served in the Department of Homeland Security during your previous administration. In his capacity with the Department of Homeland Security, he leaked classified information,” Scharf alleged, adding:

Nobody voted for this.

Yeah, we did. Those asshats should be investigated.

 

[westwall]

Don't even try it. Trump broke the law.

No, he didn't. But YOUR asshats sure might have.

 

[westwall]

I understand mf. And we do know these men committed no crime. We also know that you support fascism.

Gosh, you are so angry and hate filled, it's going to be quite the sight to see when you really go off.

Hopefully it's on video so we can all enjoy it.

Don't even try it. Trump broke the law.

You keep holding on to that

 

[Modern Messiah]

Biden did not bring charges, the DOJ, the sate of Georgia and the state of New York brought charges.
Trump is personally using the justice department to go after people who were using the 1st ammendment to express their views.

The MAGA scum is really stretching to justify the worst President in US history.
Lemmings, like the NAZI lemmings. Some of the Trump lemmings are NAZIs.

Oh Boy
Here comes the nazi accusations.
LAME

 

[Modern Messiah]

Further proof Trump is a fascist thug – using the authority of the police state to attack perceived political opponents.

Why don't you cry some more

Huh?

No.

LOL. And we are investigating others for real crimes. Why are you afraid of investigations? You don't have to worry, we will use the same criteria in these investigations that you guys have used for eight years.

For crimes. Trump is a convicted felon.

What's the predicate? Shouldn't it be more than the Felon-in-Chief not liking what those guys have to say?

‘I Am Your Retribution’ Comes Home To Roost​

President Trump issued two new executive orders Wednesday that each target former government officials in his first administration for investigation and retaliation.

Each executive order identifies the former officials – Chris Krebs and Miles Taylor – by name:

• Addressing Risks from Chris Krebs and Government Censorship
• Addressing Risks Associated with an Egregious Leaker and Disseminator of Falsehoods

You’ll recognize Krebs as the head of Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency whom Trump fired after he debunked the bogus claims that the 2020 presidential election was somehow rigged. Taylor was the Department of Homeland Security official who anonymously wrote a deeply critical NYT op-ed in 2018 titled: I Am Part of the Resistance Inside the Trump Administration.

Now that trump has a little time before he can go back to messing up the economy he is back to his revenge agenda, declaring Miles Taylor to be a traitor and instructing the DOJ to "investigate" him.

I think we all know Bondi will trump up (pun intended) something to charge him with.

We also have James Comey being investigated. Fanni Willis is being harassed by Republicans in Georgia. This is becoming more like Nazi Germany every day.

MAGA is de3finitely following in the footsteps of Goebbels.

Democrats impeached Trump with faked evidence, they tried to put him in prison on frivolous charges, they invaded his home in Florida with a bogus warrant and when none of that worked they set him up for two assassination attempts. Do you really want to talk about revenge?

The evidence was real. Trump should have been impeached and removed from office. The charges were not frivolous. Republicans tried to impeach Clinton on frivolous charges. The warrant was not bogus, You are a lying weasel and scum like you should be deported.
