Fox News legal analyst Gregg Jarrett said Friday evening that those who targeted President Donald Trump by attempting to push criminal charges against him through the Biden-Harris Department of Justice (DOJ) should face justice in court and publicly.
In a speech at his second administration’s new DOJ, led by Attorney General Pam Bondi, Trump called out former President Joe Biden and former Attorney General Merrick Garland on Friday for attempting to turn the department into an agency of “injustice,” accusing them of using “the law to terrorize the innocent and reward the wicked.” On “Hannity,” Fox News host Sean Hannity asked Jarrett if he believed it would be “the right thing to do” for Congress and the DOJ to investigate people who abused power “for political purposes to take down” the president.
“Oh, it absolutely would. We’re just now inevitably learning about the ugly illicit schemes that were used to target Donald Trump by the Department of Justice and the FBI. You know, part of the things we’ve learned over the last several days is that Biden’s aides in the White House were handing over Trump and Mike Pence’s cell phones,” Jarrett said.
According to Fox Digital, in May 2022, the Biden White House had turned over both Trump and former Vice President Mike Pence’s government cell phones to the FBI as part of a bureau probe after the 2020 election. While the agency did not need a warrant to physically obtain the phones, agents had allegedly begun drafting a search warrant to extract the data, according to the outlet.
George Orwell was a true genius. He basically predicted Trump. I guess it was just a matter of time.
