Isaac Dovere on DoJ’s Probe into AG James: ‘She Was Running to Go After Donald Trump,’ She Did That Over and Over Again
EXCERPT:
DOVERE: “Yeah. And look, when it comes to Tish James, this is — Brynn mentioned there was another investigation that the Justice Department started looking into about things related to her mortgage a couple months ago. This is not just a person that suddenly has pinged in two different investigations. This is, as Priscilla was talking about, a long-standing thing. When James was running in 2018, she said she was running to go after Donald Trump. She did that over and over again. Won a couple of cases. She’s been part of a bunch of the cases that various Democratic attorneys general have been taking against Trump Administration in the last few months, including to try to stop the way that he was imposing tariffs. That was a big win for her office and what they were doing. And this is Donald Trump, beyond what Phil said about what he was talking about on the campaign trail. He has repeatedly made clear that he sees the Justice Department as essentially his lawyers, and that is how he is using them. I was in touch with somebody from Tish James’ office and the statement that they have put out about this is, any weaponization of the justice system should disturb every American, and then they stand strongly behind the cases that they brought. So, look, but the Trump folks are going to try to bring it against them in any way they can.”
