Summary

Donald Trump, speaking at the Justice Department, called for jailing officials behind the 2021 Afghanistan withdrawal and defended allies while attacking critics.

He praised Judge Aileen Cannon, who dismissed his classified documents case, and condemned those who criticized her.

Trump called former special counsel Jack Smith “deranged” and referred to Jan. 6 defendants as “hostages.”

His remarks, delivered before Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel, underscore his escalated rhetoric on retribution now that he holds presidential power again.

    How about his party gets voted out in the mid terms and a new President in 2028? And Donald retires peacefully and alive somewhere in Russia?

      You wanna deal with this scumbag for another 3.5 years, I don’t. I’d rather drag his fat ass out on the street and hang him for treason.
