Trump declares days of weaponization of DOJ against Catholics, parents, pro-lifers are 'over'

Speaking at the Department of Justice on Friday, President Donald Trump declared that the days of the Biden administration weaponizing the DOJ against parents, Catholics, and other Americans are "over" and "never going to come back."

He said that "we must be honest about the lies and abuses that have occurred within these walls," stating that "a corrupt group of hacks and radicals within the ranks of the American government obliterated the trust and goodwill built up over generations. They weaponized the vast powers of our intelligence and law enforcement agencies to try and thwart the will of the American people." 

He said that despite instances in which "they spied on my campaign, launched one hoax and disinformation operation after another, broke the law on a colossal scale, persecuted my family, staff, and supporters, raided my home," in the end, "the thugs failed and the truth won, freedom won, justice won, democracy won, and above all, the American people one."

Trump said that under the leadership of Merrick Garland, the DOJ "set loose violent criminals while targeting patriotic parents at school board meetings. They dropped charges against Antifa and Hamas supporters while labeling traditional Catholics as domestic terrorists. The Catholics. We did very well with the Catholic vote. So I want to thank them for that."

"They imported illegal alien murderers, drug dealers, and child predators from all over the world to come into our country, while putting elderly Christians and pro-life activists on trial for singing hymns and for saying prayers. They went to jail for that."

"Our predecessors turned this Department of Justice into the Department of Injustice. But I stand before you today to declare that those days are over and they are never going to come back. They're never coming back.
