Magaziner tells Scott MacFarlane that President Trump has turned the DOJ into his own personal department of revenge, going after people he doesn’t like because he doesn’t like them: We just came from a speech from the King of England.

ALERT: Scott MacFarlane reports there are now THREE federal lawsuits challenging Trump’s $1.776 billion slush fund. One lawsuit calls the fund a “jaw-dropping” act of corruption and self-dealing. Another was filed by former Capitol Police officer Harry Dunn and D.C. officer Daniel Hodges, who argue taxpayers should not be forced to subsidize January 6 rioters who still threaten law enforcement officers. A third federal suit argues the fund amounts to political favoritism benefiting supporters of one political figure over others. MacFarlane says the legal fights may now move faster than Congress itself. “This thing stinks,” he said. “It’s the political version of a sulfur mine.”
