This is about as disturbing as it gets. When Trump says he plans to be a dictator, there’s no reason not to believe him.

Our team reviewed the entire DOGE website. Nothing they have identified constitutes evidence of fraud or corruption—both of which are crimes. Feel free to audit us. The funds were allotted by Congress, and OIGs regularly reviewed expenditures for fraud.

This policy is bad enough as it is--and I believe it's a significant change from DOJ's policy for many decades--but, on top of everything else, it reveals that the person who's to serve as AG believes that the U.S.'s "interests" and "overall policies" are "set" ... by the President. Yikes.

We are going to see political investigations and prosecutions. The question is whether the public, the courts and the media will recognize and call them out as political. Will they stand up against them or will people stay silent and allow them to continue.

If you are looking for the guardrails on MAGA extremism, it does not reside in government institutions or norms. It won't be found in legacy media newsrooms where both-sides journalism is the order of the day. Nor will you find courage in the boardrooms of large corporations as they bow to Trump.
