Moments after Donald Trump pleaded not guilty to federal charges that he hoarded classified documents and then conspired to obstruct an investigation about it, the Republicans in Congress had his back. Trump’s mounting legal jeopardy has quickly become a political rallying cry as they rush to stand by the indicted former president. Many Republicans say they haven’t fully read the 49-page indictment against Trump. But they are adopting his grievances against the federal justice system as their own. It’s an example of how Trump has transformed the Republican Party that was once the party of “law and order,” but is now attacking the very justice system at the foundation of U.S. democracy.
Weissmann said these attacks on the DOJ are effectively attacks on our entire democracy. The republicans want authoritarian rule so they can force their Christo-fascist rules on everyone.
… and they are winning sadly. Their complete take over of the supreme court will affect the country negatively for generations
