CynthiaAlksne What heppens when the DOJ & the FBI are being used as a weapon against the ppl & someone tries to stop them? Could those abusing this power attempt to manipulate the narrative to enlist public support against those attempting to take their influence/control away? Of course.

CynthiaAlksne He’s pathetic

CynthiaAlksne Mueller Report, Jim Comey, DEM committees. Yeah all Political SCUM

CynthiaAlksne You must have forgot Obama weaponized the DOJ and the IRS.

CynthiaAlksne That’s funny. Remember how democrats and the FBI used a fake dossier from a foreign agent to acquire a FISA warrant and illegally spy on US citizens to overturn an election? Scumbag hypocrites

CynthiaAlksne Ask obummer.

CynthiaAlksne The prosecution were staunch Democrat supporters , registered DEM supporters donaters to the DEM Party, it was totally biased , the lawyers got busted and they ran for the hills , there was only one obvious way to settle it and it was to overrule, nothing to do the Trump.

CynthiaAlksne Yep we saw that with Obama!!

CynthiaAlksne CynthiaAlksne makes absolutely NO sense. The DOJ was used as a political weapon by Obama to prosecute Roger Stone, Flynn, Manafort, Carter Page, Papadopoulos... In a treasonous coup attempt to usurp a sitting president.

CynthiaAlksne You people are nuts? No way in the world should Stone had be sentenced 9yrs. It’s an emotional verdict based on those prosecutors hated for the President and is a miscarriage of justice. We complain about over sentencing in our judicial system and you applaud this medieval ruse.

CynthiaAlksne 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

CynthiaAlksne Donald could technically arrest his Democratic opponent if he wanted.

CynthiaAlksne All Americans, should worry about this! Countries, that deal with Trump, should worry about this. William Barr, is Trump's Roy Cohn! America you're losing your soul! Do something about it. Your country, is not a reality TV show!

CynthiaAlksne Report the truth! U might get more viewers! Smart people know prosecutors changed deal they all agreed to. It was already well in motion before Trump tweeted. He just brought attention to it!

CynthiaAlksne We have become a lawless country. Democracy has been thrown out of the window by the GOP cultist lawmakers and highest level of justice. We have to fight back! We have to replace this cult, but the problem is that all future presidents now know that they have no boundaries.

CynthiaAlksne You never seemed to mind when Obama did it.

CynthiaAlksne 'There is no Crueler Tyranny than that which is perpetuated under the shield of law, and in the name of justice.' - Baron de Montesquieu

CynthiaAlksne No SHIT! We kind of found that out during the Obama Administration didn't we. How quickly we forget IRS targeting, fast and furious, Russian Hoax, Ukraine Hoax. And who knows how many others. Oh yeah, you didn't really cover any of those did you. Not working! We don't care!

CynthiaAlksne Correct.

CynthiaAlksne Dictators always murder the citizenry Show me one exception

CynthiaAlksne Did the president do this....Or did DOJ make this decision?

CynthiaAlksne You can blame yourselves for Trump. You underestimated him every step of the way, and even propped him up in the GOP primary because you thought Hillary could beat him in a landslide victory. Ironically, the GOP is now making the same mistake with Bernie Sanders. NotMeUs

CynthiaAlksne Should I expect a knock on my door soon Is trumpy going to start rounding up all the democrats so we can't vote against him in November? I certainly wouldn't put it past him. No one is safe anymore with this lunatic running around unchecked!

CynthiaAlksne How true that is.
