  1. YOUR CENSORSHIP DENOUNCED ALWAYS IS A NAZI CRIME RTVE OF THE NUREMBERG CODE.

  2. After DOJ announcement of special counsel to investigate into Trump's committed crimes, Trump is crying for help like a drowning criminal in an isolated point of ocean by inciting the GOP to create another insurrection Jan. 6 for him but this time attacking DOJ not Capitol Hill.
    Unfortunately his dear friends are mostly under investigation or convicted as his white supremacists, radical right, proud boys, three percenters….
    Bannon, giuliani, Eastman, Flynn, Stone…
    For blackmailing the Department of Justice and creating a new Jan. 6 Trump need the mobs again, but they can not help him it is too late, because their collar has been taken by justice many of them are already handcuffed.
    Like Saddam accused the Court being motivated politically, in favor of USA. He telltales that the process is radical left motivated, he thinks that it changes in matter that police officers were killed in Jan 6 or other his crimes … Well it will not change his committed crimes whether process political motivated or not.
    Likewise even if the Court was motivated by USA, it does not change the reality that Saddam committed crimes which cost him his head in any other national and international court, because there was clear evidences that he has committed several heavy crimes, whose punishment is death penalty. Trump baby cries the same way that he is victim, then he tells: he will not partake in this special counsel… this is political motivated by radical left or special counsel is radical left… This is a way to incite the people of GOP against DOJ.
    Every criminal person is a victim one-way or other, otherwise why should a wise human commits crime, if everyone knows that committing crime will follows its consequences as conviction and punishment. In public interest every criminal after a fair legal proceedings, which is, as internationally known as : a trial that is conducted fairly, justly, and with procedural regularity by an impartial judge and in which the defendant is afforded his or her rights under the U.S. Constitution or the appropriate state constitution or other law.
    No matter the criminal is a simple citizen or president Saddam Hussein or former president Trump, who is a simple citizen after end of his term. They are to punished. Most of criminals are victim anyhow but this is justice and law overall in the world, if somebody committed crime no matter who is he, he must be punished, why? Because of protection of whole society.

  3. Put this POS in prison. Why is this taking so long.

  4. Stop the witch hunt… Investigate Biden and his son hypocrites…

  5. JUSTICE DEPARTMENT NEEDS TO STAY AWAY FROM THE SUPREME COURT JUSTICE'S. YOU ARE CORRUPT AND WILL FACE MILITARY TRIBUNAL JUSTICE!

  6. No , it's a effort to move move the spotlight off of this pathetic joke of a hearing and the largest investigation in the
    FBI history as well as from the malicious hypocrites and their complete buffoonery of this wretched joke of a hearing . Yes lets open another frivolous investigation by more malevolent people against Trump and see more injustice.

  7. Tired story. The real story is why this has been going on for so many years. Either you had proof when you made the accusation or you didn’t.

  8. The Orange Pumpkin has to be the Luckiest Reckless Organized Criminal on the planet, however the Orange Criminal's Long Running Saga of violating the law is coming to an end and he will soon get a date in court with Lady Justice.

  9. MIENTRAS NO ELIMINES AL ASESINO NO ACABAS CON EL PROBLEMA.

  10. He need to be in the prison for many reason , I don’t need to be a lawyer to know all that

  11. Trump wanted a Special Counsel, now he's got one. Let's see who gets "Fired"? I'm thinking Trump feels like it's a reality-based t.v. show where he gets to call the shots…

  12. THE COMMUNISTS ARE REALLY DESPIRATE . HOW MANY TIMES MUST THEY GO AFTER HIM AND NOTHING IS FOUND. IF YOU STILL THINK THE RUSSIAN COLLUSION WAS TRUE YOU NEED YOUR HEAD EXAMINED. !!!!!

  13. The fascist left is soooooo afraid of trump! It’s glorious!

  14. VERY THANKS MY PRESIDENT DONAL J TRUMP OUT THE KILLER DEMONS OF RTVE THANK YOU.

  15. I wish they’d stop talking & arrest him already. No more BS!

  16. There's no there there.investigate hunter and the big guy

  17. Does this sound familier? Special operation…..special counsel? All these special things mean one thing, its all fake with the intension of convincing citizens!

  18. Nothing says "we're super serious this time" like making a press statement on a Friday!

  19. Jesus, they taped Jack Smith? The (in)famous war crimes prosecutor?! Well, that's it, Trump is finished…and not even the President, any sitting judge, nor any Democrat or Republican can stop in any way shape or form…

  20. Bring back Miguel Alamaguer, he’s being treated unfairly! Shame on you NBC

  21. Trump LOST 2020.
    Then, he LOST again in 2022.

    Te-he 🤭🤭

  22. Going after your political opponents with the doj, yep this is mosdef Obama's 3rd term…we're no better than a banana republic

  23. They just don’t give up do they. They are so intimidated of him because they know he’ll win in 2024.

  24. Imagine if this clown Garland got in the Supreme Court.
