Allegation of political use of the judicial system
According to the Hill newspaper, the Trump administration is facing widespread criticism, accusing it of using Justice Department investigations and prosecutions to target the president's political opponents.
This newspaper reported that the US Department of Justice prosecuted Leticia James, the Attorney General of New York State; James previously won a civil fraud case against Trump before he returned to the White House.
Hill also wrote that the Department of Justice has issued two indictments against James Comey, the former head of the US Federal Police (FBI); The first time last year and the second time in 2026.
The department also tried to file a lawsuit against six Democratic members of Congress who appeared in a video teaching US troops not to accept illegal orders; But the grand jury refused to indict them.
The federal investigation into Ilhan Omar, the Democratic representative of Congress, has also sparked a wave of political controversy and public reaction in the United States. The controversy intensified after reports surfaced earlier this week that his home in Washington had been searched and his cellphone and passport seized. This incident has also raised questions about the possibility of his American citizenship being revoked and his deportation to Somalia.
Other people have also been targeted in the framework of the Trump administration's investigations; Among them, Adam Schiff, the Democratic senator of the state of California, Jerome Powell, the former chairman of the Federal Reserve, and Lisa Cook, a member of the board of this institution. Trump had previously tried to remove Cook, but the US Supreme Court intervened to prevent the move.
On the other hand, the Trump administration concluded the prosecution of John Bolton, the former US national security adviser. Bolton pleaded guilty last June to charges of unlawful possession of classified documents at the highest level.
