I am calling to express my outrage about the dangerous politicization of the Department of Justice. Under Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel, the DOJ has abandoned its mission to protect Americans and uphold the law. Instead, it has become a weapon to attack political opponents and silence critics. The arrest of journalists Don Lemon, Georgia Fort, Trahern Jeen Crews, and Jamael Lydell Lundy represents a chilling assault on the First Amendment and press freedom. These arrests are part of a broader pattern of abuse that includes opening criminal investigations into Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell to influence interest rate decisions, dropping charges against former NYC Mayor Eric Adams and Trump's co-defendants in the classified documents case, and launching investigations into perceived political rivals including former CIA Director John Brennan and New York Attorney General Letitia James. The DOJ has fired the director of the Department of Ethics Office, at least three January 6 prosecutors, and 20 DOJ prosecutors who assisted Special Counsel Jack Smith. They conducted an FBI raid on John Bolton's home after he became a Trump critic, fired a whistleblower who reported officials encouraging DOJ lawyers to defy court orders, and closed a bribery investigation into border czar Tom Homan who allegedly accepted cash from undercover FBI agents. The DOJ even attempted to install Trump's personal attorney Lindsey Halligan as a top prosecutor, who then indicted former FBI Director James Comey in a case a federal judge dismissed as invalid. I urge you to take immediate action to condemn the arrest of Don Lemon, Georgia Fort, Trahern Jeen Crews, and Jamael Lydell Lundy and their unconstitutional silencing. Conduct public oversight hearings into the DOJ's politically motivated actions. Call for the resignations of Pam Bondi and Kash Patel. Support articles of impeachment and vote to convict and remove Trump for his repeated defiance of the law and destruction of democratic institutions.
