I am writing to demand immediate congressional action to investigate the Attorney General and Trump’s Department of Justice for their blatant abuse of power and politically motivated interference in prosecutions. The abrupt halting of New York City Mayor Eric Adams’ indictment is just the latest example of Trump using the DOJ to shield his allies while aggressively targeting his critics. If Congress does not act now, our justice system will be permanently corrupted, serving Trump’s personal and political interests instead of upholding the rule of law.
Trump’s DOJ is no longer operating as an independent law enforcement agency. He has openly stated his intent to protect his allies—like Eric Adams—while weaponizing prosecutions against those who challenge him, including officials who prosecuted January 6 rioters. The message is clear: loyalty to Trump means protection, while opposition results in legal retaliation.
This is an urgent crisis that threatens the foundation of American democracy. Consider these alarming developments:
• Selective Prosecution: The DOJ is actively pursuing those involved in holding January 6 insurrectionists accountable while dropping or blocking cases against Trump’s political allies. Adams’ case, which involved serious allegations, was shut down without transparency or justification.
• Weaponized Law Enforcement: Trump has made it clear that he views the DOJ and FBI as extensions of his power, not as independent institutions. He is using these agencies to target individuals and groups who oppose him while allowing clear wrongdoing by his supporters to go unchecked.
• Erosion of Checks and Balances: If the DOJ becomes a tool for Trump’s personal revenge and protection, it undermines the entire system of justice. The United States cannot allow law enforcement to function based on political loyalty rather than legal merit.
Congress must act now to restore the integrity of our justice system. I urge you to:
1. Launch a full congressional investigation into DOJ interference in prosecutions, including why Adams’ indictment was halted and how cases are being selectively pursued.
2. Introduce legislation to prevent political manipulation of the DOJ, ensuring no administration can use it to protect allies and punish opponents.
3. Publicly condemn the administration’s abuse of prosecutorial power and demand transparency regarding how legal decisions are being made.
If Congress allows this corruption to continue, it will send a dangerous message: the law no longer applies equally to all Americans. A justice system that serves one leader’s personal agenda is not justice—it is dictatorship.
The time for action is now. If Congress fails to stand up to this abuse of power, our democracy may not recover. I urge you to act before it is too late.
