Former President Donald Trump has once again aimed at the Department of Justice, dubbing the unsealing of a motion by Special Counsel Jack Smith as nothing short of a “hit job.” Trump’s remarks came in a post on Truth Social after Judge Chutkan decided that voters should be treated to a 165-page “redacted motion” that, according to sources, underlines Trump’s alleged bid to overturn the results of the 2020 election. In other words, the DOJ puts on its theatrical hat just in time for election season.
In a twist that feels straight out of a warped political drama, Trump pointed his finger squarely at the Democrats, accusing them of using the DOJ as their political puppet. The timing of this filing, he argues, is fishy at best. It just so happens to coincide with Republican Senator JD Vance bringing the heat to Minnesota Governor Tim Walz during their debate, sending the old-school Democrat into a tailspin. With Trump leading the charge in the polls, the Democrats seemed to be in a panic, resorting to the tools of oppression rather than focusing on their floundering candidate, Kamala Harris.

The former president wasn’t shy about calling the unsealed motion a blatant instance of prosecutorial misconduct. To him, it’s clear: Democrats are pulling strings to turn America into a nation where dissent is punished, and political opponents are bullied from the public sphere. This is what you get when you treat the DOJ like your personal law firm, he claims. Based on Trump’s analysis, the unsealing also represents one of the most egregious betrayals of justice in American history—not exactly a badge of honor for the party that claims to uphold the law.
As if one political drama wasn’t enough, Trump took it a step further by labeling the whole shebang as evidence of election interference on a scale previously unseen. The Democrats, he asserts, are fiercely focused on preventing him from reclaiming the White House and sealing the porous border. He paints a dark picture: a chaotic America where millions enter illegally while the Left squanders democracy in a frantic scramble to protect their power. His bold assertions are backed by the belief that the Democrats will ultimately collapse under their scheming, leading to Trump’s heroic return to the throne.
In a pointed critique, Trump lambasted Jack Smith’s 165-page motion for being bloated with “falsehoods” and one-sided allegations. The writing appears to cast doubt on Trump’s claims about the election while conveniently ignoring the possibility that he might just be convinced of his narrative. With the specter of past indictments hovering over him, Trump isn’t just rattling cages for the sake of it—he sees this as an all-out witch hunt reminiscent of previous farcical political show trials. To Trump, there’s a clear objective: to undermine his candidacy while the Democrats retreat further into their political delusions.
In the grand theater of American politics, Trump’s act of defiance offers a glimpse into the relentless battle for hearts and minds. He boldly declares that he won’t be swept under the rug by a desperate party willing to weaponize the system against a leading candidate. The stage is set for an engaging showdown that promises more than mere political theater. The stakes are high, and as Trump says, America’s very democracy hangs in the balance.
