kinda hard to gaze upon Kash Patel's "challenge coin" and not immediately think of some of history's more infamous skull shaped "challenge coins"

The Justice Department's indictment of the former FBI director appears to follow the Putin playbook: discredit the system to protect yourself. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2025/09/29/comey-indictment-subverts-trump-credibility/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #doj #fbi #jamescomey #andrewmccabe #pambondi

The #DOJ would have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that #Comey intentionally lied to the #Senate cmte, “not just that he got something wrong,” Robert Kelner, a lawyer at the firm Covington & Burling, who has represented the #Republican National Cmte & other Republican organizations, posted.

“What evidence do they have for that?” Kelner said, adding, “This isn’t a serious case.”

Additionally, the #Trump admin has not been transparent. The overwhelming majority of the “thousands of pages of documents” the #DOJ released on #Epstein were already mostly public information. It’s clear that these paltry excuses from Trump aren’t going to make any of this go away.

His demands came a day after he ousted the federal prosecutor who failed to charge 2 of the adversaries he most reviles, #LetitiaJames & #JamesComey, showing how far #Trump has gone in exerting personal control over the #DOJ & breaching the longstanding norm about keeping #politics at a distance from #LawEnforcement.

Even for a president who has shattered the traditional norms of maintaining distance from the #DOJ, #Trump’s unabashedly public & explicit orders to #PamBondi were an extraordinary breach of prosecutorial protocols that reach back to the days following the #Watergate scandal.

#Trump demanded on Saturday that his AG move quickly to prosecute figures he considers his enemies, the latest blow to the #DOJ’s tradition of independence.

“We can’t delay any longer, it’s killing our reputation & credibility,” Trump wrote in a social media post addressed to “Pam,” meaning US AG #PamBondi. “They impeached me twice, & indicted me (5 times!), OVER NOTHING. JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED, NOW!!!”

Meanwhile, a #Disney deal struck in January to buy a stake in the streaming service #FuboTV fell under scrutiny, too, with several reports that the #DOJ was investigating possible #antitrust violations.

The #FTC also launched a probe into whether Disney broke rules by gathering #personal #data from #children watching its videos without permission from parents. Disney settled the case earlier this month by paying $10M & agreeing to change its practices.

🚨"The court granted a #DOJ request to put on hold a fed judge's order temporarily barring agents from stopping or detaining people without "reasonable suspicion" they're in the country illegally, by relying on race or ethnicity, or if they speak Spanish or English with an accent, among other factors."

Wow, GOP SCJs aren't just closet racists, they just ruled that #RacialProfiling is the law of the land.
