President Donald J. Trump reportedly wants the Department of Justice to cough up $230 million to compensate him for the unjust legal persecution unleashed against him by the Biden regime.
According to a New York Times report, Trump has “submitted complaints through an administrative claim process that often is the precursor to lawsuits,” with the first claim from late 2023 seeking damages for violation of his rights including the investigation into the Russiagate hoax, a big, fat nothing burger that will go down in history as one of the greatest frauds ever perpetrated upon the American public.
The second claim, which was filed last summer, accused the FBI of violating his privacy with the August 2022 storming of his Mar-a-Lago residence in South Florida, an unprecedented action that was signed off on by disgraced former President Joe Biden’s attorney general Merrick Garland. The second complaint also accuses the DOJ of malicious prosecution, according to the Times, which cites the now standard anonymous sources in “people familiar with the matter.”

“The situation has no parallel in American history,” the paper stated, “as Mr. Trump, a presidential candidate, was pursued by federal law enforcement and eventually won the election, taking over the very government that must now review his claims. It is also the starkest example yet of potential ethical conflicts created by installing the president’s former lawyers atop the Justice Department.”
When asked about the Times report by CNN’s Kaitlan Collins in the Oval Office on Tuesday, the president did not deny that he’s seeking restitution and said that he’d give it to charity.

“It could be,” Trump said, adding, “I don’t know what the numbers are, I don’t even talk to them about it. All I know is that they would owe me a lot of money. But I’m not looking for money, I’d give it to charity or something. I would give it to charity, any money.”
“But look, what they did, they rigged the election, and as you know, we had, in one case, 60 Minutes had to pay us a lot of money, George Slopodopoulous had to pay us a lot of money,” he continued. “They paid me a lot of money, because what they did was wrong.”
“Now with the country, it’s interesting because I’m the one who makes the decision,” Trump said. “And you know, that decision would have to go across my desk, and it’s awfully strange to make a decision where I’m paying myself.”
The Democrat media is spewing outrage with the talking points having gone out that it’s Trump abusing the system to have his “own Justice Department” pay him out, when in reality, it was Biden’s Justice Department that carried out the malicious lawfare persecution, the real outrage.
“What a travesty,” whined Pace University ethics professor Bennett L. Gershman, who was quoted by the New York Times. “The ethical conflict is just so basic and fundamental, you don’t need a law professor to explain it.”
