Trump made the comments during an exclusive Fox News town hall with Sean Hannity.
Trump says Department of Justice is an 'absolute weapon' for Democrats; slams special counsel probe as 'election interference'3 min readFormer President Trump said the Justice Department has become"an absolute weapon" for Democrats, while slamming Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigation as"election interference."
"They’re in a rush because they want to interfere. It’s interference with the election — it’s election interference," Trump said."Never been done like this in the history of our country, and it is a disgrace what’s happening to our country — whether it is the borders or the elections or kinds of things like this, where the DOJ has become a weapon for the Democrats.
But Trump reminded that President Biden is also under special counsel investigation for alleged improper retention of classified records. Special Counsel Robert Hur is investigating Biden. The status of that probe is unknown. Meanwhile, Trump also reflected on the FBI’s original investigation into whether the Trump campaign was colluding with Russia to influence the 2016 presidential election. Special Counsel Robert Mueller found that there was no evidence of collusion, and Special Counsel John Durham found that the FBI’s investigation never should have been opened in the first place.
