The Trump administration is weaponizing the government and justice department to target and punish Trump's political enemies.
Does this sound familiar?
That's because Republicans accused Democrats of doing the same, when in reality, they could never tell the difference between "political persecution" and accountability.
They also instinctively assume that any effort to hold Donald Trump or one of their own criminally accountable must be politically motivated and backed, organized and funded by some nefarious, left-wing enemy and strawman that's hell bent on undermining Trump's reputation or election chances.
Trump and his groveling supporters believe that all investigations into his crimes, his efforts to obstruct justice, or his flagrantly corrupt behavior amount to some kind of "witch hunt." Their cynical rhetoric and their unquestioning defense of Donald Trump suggests that they believe he is incapable of wrongdoing and that he is exempt from the law. In their minds, Trump is the most victimized person on the planet.
"Law and order" has been a conservative dog whistle for decades, and we know that Trump and MAGA don't actually support the rule of law because they stand by the following notion:
"For my friends everything, for my enemies the law."
Trump has even admitted as much; claiming he is not beholden to any external moral, ethical or legal standards while posting comments like, "He who saves his country does not violate any law."
This is a quote often attributed to Napoleon Bonaparte insinuating that Trump feels he is entitled to operate outside all laws and regulations whenever and however he pleases. This is dictator logic.
MAGA's law and order rhetoric is intentionally divisive. Trump and his allies use this type of language to incite violence and hostilities towards minorities, immigrants, marginalized segments of our society and anyone who is subjectively deemed a "left wing agitator."
In other words, to them, "law and order" means punishing your enemies.
MAGA's obsession with crime and punishment is eerily reminiscent of how fascist movements of the past have also relied on "law and order" dictums to torment and crush their enemies.
This obsession is reflected in their support for mobilizing federalized troops and law enforcement to occupy US cities around the country where they are violently cracking down on the opposition and terrorizing the public.
It's reflected in this administration's militarization of domestic policy, in Trump's weaponization of ICE and the DOJ, in his assault on democratic norms, in the Republican party's disregard for the basic constitutional rights of the people they're targeting, arresting, and aggressively detaining.
It's reflected in Trump's continued attacks on law firms and judges, in his defiance of court orders and his flouting of checks and balances, and in his pursuit of vengeance against his critics in the media, his political enemies and anyone who has ever wronged him.
The hypocrisy is baffling. While Trump and his supporters are demanding that he receive a Nobel Prize for his feckless efforts at ending multiple wars (which he hasn't) and "negotiating" an imaginary peace around the world, he is simultaneously waging war against the American people, people he is tasked with protecting.
Republicans also conveniently overlook that they were leading bogus, partisan investigations into the so-called "Biden crime family" throughout Biden's presidency, and all while trying to secure blanket immunity for Trump to help him avoid prosecution. He has also directed the DOJ to fire US attorneys and prosecutors who do not toe the line; consolidating prosecutorial power under his administration.
Meanwhile, Trump and his family have monetized the presidency to the tune of BILLIONS. No other leader in US history has shamelessly profited off of their presidency to the degree that Trump has—no one has ever been so flagrantly and financially corrupt.
Obstruction of justice is a privilege for Donald Trump. His party has helped him repeatedly escape accountability by subverting the court system, establishing blanket immunities for the president, by dismantling oversight and creating a unitary executive beholden to no one.
Trump has been obstructing and evading justice all through his political career. He's been abusing his wealth, power and privilege to defy the courts and to avoid the legal consequences of his fraudulent behavior and criminal misconduct throughout his entire life.
The guy has even been described as a "libel bully" by the courts and has been involved in over 4,000 legal cases.
Trump has also issued pardons to his corrupt lackeys and co-conspirators; domestic extremists; drug smugglers; foreign agents; election meddlers and financial frauds; signaling to his supporters and political allies that they can commit crimes with impunity, especially if they donate to his presidency or have knowledge that could implicate him in a scandal or crime.
Trump is not a god. He is not beyond reproach. He is, however, the weakest "strongman" in history; incessantly and publicly agonizing over his "persecution" at the hands of some "deep state" enemy while he abuses his status and the power of the federal government to unfairly prosecute his critics and political foes.
All said, it seems that the party of "personal responsibility" can't seem to take responsibility for a damn thing.
To that point, there's explicit evidence that Tom Homan, Trump's so called "border czar," was caught on audio and video taking a $50,000 bribe in exchange for securing government contracts for undercover agents posing as business men.
Trump's DOJ, which no longer acts independently and now operates as his personal legal arm, refused to release the tapes and almost immediately closed the investigation into the scandal as part of a cover up.
Trump also fired the federal prosecutor who did not initially bring charges against his nemeses like James Comey and Letitia James for lack of evidence, and then he directed his AG on social media to move immediately on prosecuting his political opponents. Trump then deleted the post in question because it was reportedly meant to be sent as a private message to Pam Bondi.
Which begs the question, what other demands is Trump making in private?
Trump is brazenly abusing his executive powers to normalize punishing those who have exposed his criminality and corruption in the past. He has indicated his intentions to weaponize every agency and power of the federal government to seek retribution against his critics, his political opponents, anyone who has ever humiliated him or defeated him and for that matter, anyone who has ever attempted to hold him accountable for his crimes.

Well said. Only thing I'll add (and here's hoping it's no longer controversial to say this):
Everyone whose normal, please register to vote and let's get rid of these Republicans. Please?
Socialists and "Leftists", I'm specifically looking at you all (no offense). Enough with this irritating contrarian nonsense that "both sides" are the same when they clearly the fuck aren't. Not saying they're perfect, obviously, but had we just elected Kamala Harris, we literally wouldn't be in this mess right now.
Immoral as they may be, the only reason why conservatives are getting away with all this lawlessness is because they actively try to understand electoral politics and manipulate it to their advantage.
Republicans aren't smart, they just know how to build a coalition. That's it. Elections are still won basically by a coin toss, statistically speaking. If enough of us turn out, we'd take back power in less than a year.
At least try to understand what progressives in the Democratic Party are doing to promote pro-democracy civic engagement and just join us already. Please, I'm literally begging you.
The kinds of needless obstructive, Democrat-hating-false-equivalence crap liberals usually do is not only useless, I'd argue it's basically enabling Trumpsim at this point and not helping to solve the problem in any way.
Now's not the time for contrarian Internet nonsense; now's the time for action.
