Trump orders DOJ to investigate Democrats for ‘threatening’ people

After Democrats won the midterm elections, Donald Trump ordered the Department of Justice to examine their alleged threats of impeachment and other penalties against officials. In a Truth Social post on Saturday, he called the conduct “criminal” and “extortion” but provided no evidence. Trump also claimed, without evidence, that Democrats were threatening his donors and singled out Michigan Senator Elissa Slotkin. From January, Democrats will control both chambers of Congress and can pursue investigations into the Trump family’s finances, ICE and officials in his administration.
