Trump APPEARS to claim that he used DOJ resources to help DeSantis win in 2018.

Trump says that when he was POTUS, he sent the FBI and federal prosecutors to Broward County to ensure a win for Ron DeSantis and Rick Scott. Do I have that right?

(END SNIPS)

1. The DOJ is currently investigating tactics used by Stone and the Proud Boys in 2018 to see if they were the foundation for Jan 6.

2. Sen. Nelson at the time in 2018 was insistent that there was election interference. It wasn't just DeSatan that TFG claims he helped, also Rick Scott.

3. Pam Bondi was aghast that there was no investigation of election interference at the time.

4. The reich wing is quick to label this entry as the diary of a madman, a man they worship as the orange Jesus any other time.

5. Jeff Sessions was AG until Nov. 7, 2018, day after midterm elections. Replaced by a lackey acting AG.

This will be interesting reading for me today.

this is the DeSantis secret Trump has been alluding to, and in one felled swoop he's diminished DeSantis..I suspect some of Trump's vomitus bilge is true...Trump takes a vengeful delight in gathering personal destructive information on his perceived enemies, and when they don't bend to his will he spews...

2. If true, the head of the FBI needs to resign and be prosecuted.

3. Hmm I didn't know about that.

Yes, there was definitely election inteference when a box of 40,000 votes was found in a Broward county post office the day after the election and Scott went to court and the asshole R injustices didn't allow the counting of the votes. Nelson would have won for sure if the votes were counted. There weren't sufficient votes to pull it out for Gillum, but we'd have 51 Dem senators right now if not for the Scott ratfuckery.
