    Trump got him out of jail and his party got angry at him for it. So his partisan DOJ of course is opening the investigation.

    He’s not innocent but this is also politically motivated. They wouldn’t do this if it wasn’t for Trump meddling. I miss having an independent DOJ.

          What evidence do I have that the Keebler elves are not interfering? Proving a negative is a fools game. If evidence comes to light that the DoJ is interfering, then I’ll gladly criticize them for doing so.

            The Trump administration already interfered by getting Tate released from jail in Romania. Pam Bondi is already publicly corrupt. Tate has become a political liability for Trump and there’s a clear motive for his administration to put him away. I have more than enough probable cause to be suspicious here.

              Trump himself directly interfered with the Romanian investigation, no question. That’s not the same thing as the DoJ interfering with the SDNY investigation. Two separate things.

              I have more than enough probable cause to be suspicious here.

              Suspicion is not evidence that the DoJ has done anything to interfere with the SDNY investigation. In fact, it looks more like Trump/Bondi are not interfering specifically because they don’t need to. Tate was gonna get popped by US law enforcement eventually, and was likely banking on Trump saving him. Since he’s a liability, all Trump has to do is nothing.
