“TRUMP’S Justice Department Speech: A Bold Stand Against ‘Corrupt Forces’”
- Former President Donald TRUMP delivered a bold speech at the Justice Department, slamming the department, judicial system, and political rivals. He promised to “expel rogue actors and corrupt forces.” Trump took aim at former officials involved in past investigations against him.
The speech was held in the historic Great Hall of the Justice Department, an unusual spot for such political talks. With allies who faced investigations during his presidency by his side, Trump criticized what he called the department’s “politicization” and vowed to stop “politically motivated leaks.”
Trump also spoke about those convicted in the January 6th Capitol riot, calling them “political prisoners” who were “grossly mistreated.” This fits his view of being unfairly targeted by legal systems and his vow to revoke security clearances from unjust prosecutors.
The speech comes amid rising political tensions as a Senate vote on a Trump-backed spending bill narrowly avoided a government shutdown. Trump’s actions continue to divide an already polarized political scene.
