And some of you are looking down now, and I get it, because you had a president who was indicted four times by this department.

You had a president who, along with this department, had assistance.

So this department helped two other local DAs go after the president.

You had this department who stood idly by while states tried to keep President Trump off the ballot.

That's what happened the past four years.

And so when I'm asked questions or when I see reporting about shock and awe at this supposed weaponization of this Department of Justice,

It means nothing to me because it's completely false.

What we're doing and what we've been doing for the past 14 months is changing this department.

It's changing this department.

We're no longer, people say the president wants to go after his political enemies.

No, the president has said time and time again that he wants justice.

And if you look at what happened to him, his family, his administration, the agents that protected him, people that happened or just walked by him on a given day, they got subjected to massive investigations by this department.

So I understand the question, and I understand the pretty constant...

role of the media that somehow this department is weaponizing itself but it happens not to be true we have tens of thousands of prosecutors all over this country putting bad guys in jail okay that's something that wasn't happening like it should have been happening for the past four years that's going to happen tomorrow and it's going to happen in the coming days it's going to happen in the coming how great is that how great is that so he's like weaponization oh shut up

Well, look, first of all, we have thousands of ongoing investigations and prosecutions going on in this country right now.

And it is true that some of them involve men, women, and entities that the president in the past has had issues with and that believe should be investigated.

That is his right, and indeed it is his duty.

to do that, meaning to lead this country.

And so I do not view this as pressure.

I do not view this as something that is going to keep me up at night, except to make sure that we are investigating every case that we have to the fullest extent of the law and using all the resources we can.
