In a recent interview on STAND with Kelly & Niki Tshibaka, former Acting Attorney General of the United States, Matt Whitaker, shared his experiences, insights, and the challenges he faced during his tenure leading the Department of Justice during the Trump administration.
Whitaker revealed how the bureaucratic elites within the Department recklessly bent, broke, and twisted the law, undermining the Constitution, in order to subvert the rightful authority of a U.S. President they chose to despise. He detailed these experiences in his book, Above the Law, including:
• How former FBI Director James Comey and top figures in the Justice Department openly worked against President Trump
• How the Deep State relies on the complicity of the mainstream media to achieve its ends
• How the Deep State—drawing on elite universities and corporate law firms—perpetuates itself, keeping a small clique of people in power to ensure that nothing ever changes
• How Robert Mueller’s investigation into alleged Russian collusion quickly concluded there was no evidence of wrong- doing by the President or his campaign but nevertheless produced a massive report that was intended as an act of political subversion
Whitaker also shared about his many successes as a prosecutor, particularly in his fight against child pornography and human trafficking. He credited those successes to following the rule of law and case law: “the path to justice is actually a well-worn path.”
He contrasted his method for success with some of the prosecutorial conduct in the ongoing legal actions against President Trump that stretch the law “well beyond its snapping point, and there’s no case law on this because nobody’s ever done a case like this.”
He underscored the absolute necessity of adhering to well-established laws and ethical responsibilities in the pursuit of justice. The adherence to the rule of law, regardless of the individual or situation in question, is fundamental to maintaining a fair and just society. He noted that in President Trump’s cases, prosecutors and judges are not consistently following the rule of law, case law, and legal ethics.
On a broader scale, Whitaker highlighted the weaponization of government and the urgent need for accountability. Holding government agencies accountable for their actions is a crucial aspect of democracy.
In conclusion, Matt Whitaker’s in-depth interview about the Department of Justice presents a fascinating exploration of the complexities of social justice in modern society. His experiences, insights, and expert perspective offer valuable understanding of the challenges and responsibilities inherent in the pursuit of justice and equality of rights. By standing firm and strong, we can contribute to the fight for justice and freedom in America. https://youtu.be/1HpuN4nkLOo
