There are a lot of angles to that job when you consider the scope now includes de-weaponizing DOJ leadership. I think Matt Whittaker would be an excellent choice, but Trump's actual pick will likely be someone not on my radar.

Political prosecutions are the very definition of weaponization. There’s no disputing that what Trump went through was exactly that.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yx_re0FyZM&ab_cha...The second error was an overzealous misuse of law to punish Trump. The most egregious of the cases pursued was Alvin Braggs one in New York, one that even he was once skeptical of, but was reportedly pressured by some on the left into pursuing. Some cases like the Georgia one were legitimate. But the host of them piled on in rapid succession, gave the impression that the legal system was being weaponized to get Trump. It confirmed to his base what it had always believed. That over-educated urban liberals were hypocrites, happy to bend rules and norms when it suited their purposes. It's worth noting that in this week's election, a CNN exit poll found that among those who believe that democracy in the U.S. is threatened, a majority supported Trump. Lawfare turned Trump from being a loser into a victor. And as his indictments grew, his campaign contributions surged and his poll numbers solidified.Let's pull out this part:

Do you mean Judge Eileen Canon who is being strongly considered by Donald Trump for a promotion?
Or do you mean Judge Chutkan whose case before her is disintegrating in the face of a completely “original” ruling by a bought and paid for USSC on the matter of presidential immunity and an internal rule at the Justice Department concerning the inadvisability of prosecuting a sitting president?

I saw the crimes.
And I am elated he doesn't even have to do community service like some teen who stole a bike.
Instead he's going to the Oval Office.

"There are a lot of angles to that job when you consider the scope now includes de-weaponizing DOJ leadership." - BHM
I know you get a lot of your information from sources that take advantage of your ignorance and often make you look foolish. This is one of those times. You look foolish because you have it backwards. During the Trump administration there was plenty of evidence that he tried to weaponize the Justice Department. He often spoke about investigating his political enemies. There are numerous who worked in the justice department in his administration who talked about directives from Trump. That is why there were investigations under Trump that resulted in no real convictions. They were politically motivated investigations (i.e. the Justice Department was a political weapon), so they couldn't convince even friendly judges to convict.
In the Biden administration, there is no evidence of using the Justice Department as a political weapon. No evidence of any directives. Furthermore, almost all of the major investigations turned up massive amounts of evidence of wrongdoing and got convictions (or enough evidence for convictions if allowed to finish).
Stop looking like a fool. Educate yourself. Stop letting people take advantage of your ignorance. Do better. You have already hurt the country and made us look like the laughingstock to the rest of the world. Why do you hate America?

Garland was very cautious. Too damned slow at dealing with Trump's criminality. Not weaponized at all.

There weren't any 'political' prosecutions. But I'll bet there will be under Mr. Retribution.
