After getting sworn into office, President-elect Donald Trump should embark on an effort to fire staffers at the Justice Department who worked on criminal cases against him, Sen. Eric Schmitt argued.
The Missouri Republican who previously served as his state’s attorney general, contended that DOJ staffers who worked on the cases against Trump were embarking on an effort to undercut the will of the voters.
“And anybody part of this, this effort to keep President Trump off the ballot and to throw him in jail for the rest of his life because they didn’t like his politics, and who continue to cast him as a ‘threat to democracy,’ was wrong, and so we’ll see where that goes,” Schmitt told NBC’s “Meet the Press” Sunday.
Special counsel Jack Smith oversaw the DOJ’s two indictments against Trump, including the 40-count Mar-a-Lago document case and the four-count 2020 election subversion case.
The indictment for alleged hoarding of classified documents was thrown out by a Florida judge and the 2020 election subversion case was revived from a hiatus shortly before the Nov. 5 election. Following Trump’s victory, the 2020 case was put on pause again.
I agree 100% !!! They all are guilty of election tampering as well as conspiracy against our country. You can call that treason.
