The Department of Justice was created in 1870 with an explicit mission to protect civil rights and enforce the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments. The DOJ went after the Klan hard, securing thousands of indictments and 600+ convictions within the first year alone. How about restoring *that* focus?
Leavitt: "We want to restore the Department of Justice to an institution that focuses on fighting law and order."

"They haven’t found a single dollar of fraud. And the waste and abuse they’ve been clamoring about has turned out just to be government agencies, programs, and spending that Trump, Musk, and Republicans simply don’t like."

Replying to @ronfilipkowski.bsky.social
Trump is an agent of Russia and wants to drag us into a military war with Canada. This won't end well unless he is stopped.
Allow me to explain: Trump vows to hand Ukraine to Putin. Trump vows to hand Gaza to Netanyahu. Trump vows to hand Taiwan to Xi. Then, as he exits NATO, and remakes our military into an operation 100% loyal to MAGA, he'll vow to hand Canada, Greenland, Mexico and Panama to himself. Bookmark it.

Reminder that polygraph tests aren't admissible in a court of law, because they're junk science. This is meant to intimidate those who want to speak out or leak information. Polygraphs are beatable, if you prepare. Time to read up! antipolygraph.org
