Bragging that every “single man or woman…who had anything to do with” the criminal investigations of President Trump at DOJ and the FBI has been fired, resigned, or pushed into early retirement is something Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche now boasts about publicly. That is a bizarre thing for the country’s second‑ranking law enforcement official to celebrate. He is either admitting that he does not understand that his job is to safeguard an impartial Justice Department, or he is consciously and proudly telling the country that he is serving as a corrupt political tool of the president. zurl.co/zGHUK

WELKER: Do you think it's appropriate for the president to celebrate the death of a Bronze Star, Purple Heart recipient who served in Vietnam? BESSENT: Neither one of us can understand what has been done to the president and his family WELKER: But is it appropriate for the president to celebrate the death of any American citizen? BESSENT: Give what has been done to President Trump and his family, it is impossible for either of us to understand what he's been through WELKER: So you don't think there's anything wrong with a post saying, 'Good. Robert Mueller's dead'? BESSENT: We should have empathy for what's been done to the president and his family
