Large banner of Trump unfurled at Justice Department headquarters The DOJ has traditionally operated with a degree of separation from the White House to prevent the department's powers from being abused for political purposes.

Trump has turned the Department of Justice into his own personal vendetta machine. And Pam Bondi has been happy to go along for the ride.

We're witnessing the most egregious politicization of the DOJ in recent memory โ€” and I lived through the Nixon years. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Georgia Is Letting a Railroad Seize Land a Black Family Has Owned For 100 Years Descendants of enslaved people are fighting an attempt to use eminent domain to carve a spur through one of Georgiaโ€™s largest Blackโ€‘owned farms.

In the 1800s, a slave owner purchased over a dozen people in Georgia and set the foundation for his familyโ€™s generational wealth

Generations later, a railroad company owned by one of his descendants is using eminent domain to seize land of Black farmers

Virginia Giuffreโ€™s Brother: It was disgraceful that Bondi couldn't even acknowledge us because if they did that, then they would admit wrongdoing. Our president can't do that. The reason is he is potentially implicated in these files. He may have to answer some questions himself.

Medicare for All - "That's socialism!"

Debt free education - "That's socialism!"

Universal childcare - "That's socialism!"

Billions for ICE, refurbishing Trump's Qatar jet, and tax cuts for the rich...

So, the US govt approach is:
*We are going to scan tourists social media accounts and deny visas because of content we dislike, like mocking Trump
and
*We are going to allow foreigners a work-around to consume social media content their governments have banned, including hate speech
