Washington (AP) President Donald Trump promised to “uncover” his enemies during a standard of spading political speech on Friday in the Ministry of Justice, in which he exuded a litany of complaints about the criminal matters with which he was confronted, and the retaliation for what he described, “occurred as” lies and abuse in these walls “.

The support of the policy of Trump administration should gather violent crime, drugs and illegal immigration. However, it also acted as a triumphant forum for the president, who scored, legally and politically intact by two federal persecution that had threatened to torqued his prospects of the president a year ago, but were released after his election victory last autumn.

Although other presidents from the Ceremonial Hall of the Ministry of Justice spoke, Trump's speech was an extraordinary presentation of party politics and personal complaint in an institution that should be blind for both. He occupied himself as a “Chief Law Enforcement Officer” of the country, a title that was normally reserved for the Attorney General, and promised to aim his perceived enemies, even when he claimed to end what he described as weapons of the department.

We were talking about the latest manifestation of Trump's unprecedented takeover of the department and came in the middle of a brazen retaliation campaign that was already carried out under his observation, including the dismissal of prosecutors who examined him during the bid administration, and the examination of thousands of FBI agents who examined the supporters of the president on 6. Jan. 2021 stormed.

“Our predecessors have made this Ministry of Justice to the injustice department. But today I am standing in front of them to explain that these days are over and they will never come back and never return.

The attendance of the Ministry of Justice, the first of Trump and the first of each president in a decade, brought him into the abdomen of an institution that he has been reducing in Sengter for years, but one that he tried through the installation of loyalists and members of his personal defense team in top management positions.

The event was reminiscent of a campaign rally, with optimistic music from speakers in front of Trump to the Great Hall. Ministry of Justice and Officials of the White House mixed while members of the crowd posed for selfies. The podium was flanked by large signs with the inscription “Fentanyl in America”. Also on stage was a box with the inscription “DEA evidence”.

Trump's unique status as a former criminal accused, who was accused by the department, in which he was now about the speech when he lifted the results of the presidential elections 2020 and the after-classification of classifications in his Mar-AA-LAGESTAT.

He mentioned telephone prosecutors who examined him, called them “foam” and called the case of the classified documents against him “Bullen-.” He claimed that “a corrupt group of hacks and radicals in the ranks of the American government extinguished the trust and good will” and said before the department could turn the side, “we have to be honest about the lies and abuse in these walls,”

“We will drive away the villain players and corrupt forces of our government. We will uncover their outrageous crimes and serious misconduct, a lot of expose, “said Trump in a far -reaching speech that touched everything from Russia's war against Ukraine, the 2020 election to the price of eggs.

“It becomes legendary. And also legendary for the people who are looking for and can bring justice. We will restore the scales of justice in America, and we will make sure that such abuse in our country will never happen again.”

His assertion that the Ministry of Justice was overlooked during the Biden administration that during this time there was an investigation into bidens abuse of classified information as well as in the firearms and tax matters of his son Hunter. And his narrative of the recent investigations against him did not mention that the prosecutors had accumulated what they said, significantly evidence, including the request to hinder the examination of the classified documents.

When it comes to determining its agenda, the Ministry of Justice historically takes a note from the White House, but tries to maintain its independence for individual criminal investigations.

Trump has built up such standards.

He encouraged specific investigations during his first term and tried to develop Robert Mueller's dismissal, the special consultant who examined the campaign between Russia and Trump in 2016. He also had difficult relationships with his first two hand -picked lawyers in general – Jeff Sessions was fired immediately after the 2018 interim elections, and William Barr stepped back weeks after having publicly contested Trump's wrong claims in the 2020 elections.

When he arrived a second term in January, Trump confirmed the unshakable control of the Ministry of Justice for the unshakable control of the Ministry of Justice and determined to remove all potential obstacles, including the appointment of Pam Bondi -a former Attorney General from Florida, the part of a Trump defense team, and another, another, as Nishalt -Direction -Direction -Direction -Director.

“We all work for the largest president in our country's history,” said Bondi on Friday when the Trump was introduced. “We are so proud to work in Donald Trump's guideline. He will never stop fighting for us and we will never stop fighting for him and for our country. “

Before Bondi had been confirmed, the Ministry of Justice dismissed the department employees who worked in the special consultant Jack Smith's team, which introduced the election mixture and classification of documents against Trump. Both cases were rejected last November according to the long -term policy of the Ministry of Justice against the information sitting.

Officials from the high -ranking Ministry of Justice also demanded from the FBI lists of thousands of employees who worked on investigations on January 6, 2021, on the US -American Capitol when a mob from Trump's followers stormed the building in order to stop the certification of the election vote and the public prosecutors who were released in the public prosecutors. And they ordered the dismissal of criminal proceedings against the New York Mayor Eric Adams by saying that the indictment of the Democrat was hindered the ability of the Democrat to work together in the struggle of the Republican government against illegal immigration.
