Friend,

The Department of Justice is supposed to protect the rule of law – not
twist it into a weapon of political vengeance. But according to a
just-released New York Times investigation, that’s exactly what Donald
Trump’s DOJ is doing.^[ [link removed] ]

The Times reports that the Justice Department urged federal prosecutors to
investigate philanthropist George Soros, his family, and their
organization Open Society Foundations – citing a report from a right- wing
group. But here’s the catch: even the group’s own president admits their
research did not find any evidence of illegal activity by OSF.

That didn’t stop Trump’s DOJ from distorting those findings to justify
possible criminal charges anyway.

Scott Walter, president of the right-wing Capital Research Center, said
his group was “taken aback” that the DOJ used its report as the basis for
a potential criminal investigation. He emphasized that “only lawbreaking,
not mere speech, should receive prosecution.” Legal experts agree the
report doesn’t support any case against the Soros family or the Open
Society Foundations – which have long been targets of Trump’s
conspiratorial attacks.

This episode is part of a disturbing pattern. In recent weeks, Trump’s DOJ
has also indicted New York Attorney General Letitia James and former FBI
Director James Comey – two of his most visible critics. It’s a campaign of
retaliation meant to punish dissent and consolidate power, not uphold the
law.

The Justice Department should never be twisted into a political tool.
Every time Trump’s administration distorts the facts to attack its
perceived enemies, it undermines the very foundation of democracy – and
moves our country closer to authoritarian rule.

The law must be applied fairly to all, not used to advance personal
vendettas, and particularly not to advance a president’s agenda of
retribution. People For was founded to defend that principle – to expose
corruption, protect civil liberties, and ensure that power is never abused
in the name of justice.

We can’t stay silent while the Trump regime turns the nation’s highest law
enforcement agency into a weapon against its critics.

P.S. Forward this message to friends and family who believe in democracy
and the rule of law. Together, we can make sure this abuse of power
doesn’t go unchecked.
