Summary
Former federal prosecutor Sara Levine, fired by Trump, warned on 60 Minutes that the Justice Department is “under attack.”
Levine, who prosecuted January 6 rioters, said she was fired for upholding the law.
Legal expert Peter Keisler criticized Trump’s pardons of Capitol rioters, arguing they signal that crimes committed in support of Trump’s agenda may go unpunished.
These actions undermine the rule of law and discouraging accountability for political violence.
I knew I’d get this comment. And you’re not wrong, that is the case. But I’m referring to it being fully legal and accepted. Like open-air slave market level.
I don’t know how much more close we need to get to open air slave markets here, really… Have you seen a prison yard?
Ah yes, the famous prison yards where I can go participate in the slave auctions and literally purchase people as property. I get your point, but they’re really not the same.
The state of the prison system is awful but this comparison really feels like it minimizes the horrors of chattel slavery.
YOU can’t, but privateers certainly can. How do you think we lease out humans from prison to private corporations?
