Minutes after the U.S. Supreme Court concluded hearing oral arguments in a landmark case testing the 14th Amendment‘s ban on those who have engaged in insurrection, Donald Trump declared every single civil and criminal case he is facing is “illegal,” and demands they end.
Claiming all four criminal cases and even the one civil case against him amount to “the weaponization of politics, weaponized it like it’s never been weaponized,” Trump declared them “totally illegal, but they do it anyway.”
“And it has to stop,” he declared. “Every one of the court cases that I’m involved every single one civil, whether it’s the attorney general, so the district attorney to look at Fati, Georgia,” he said, apparently referring to Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.
“They had many meetings with the White House and with the DOJ, they went their eight hour meetings. It was all staged. That was a phony hoax and now you’re looking at it and it is a phony hoax. Hopefully that case will be dismissed in short order. And so it’s a disgrace that this country, but they work together with the Justice Department and the White House and not supposed to do that. Every one of these cases you see comes out of the White House that comes out of Biden it’s election interference,” Trump baselessly alleged.
News networks, including MSNBC, CNN, and Fox all cut into their programming to carry Trump’s remarks live after the Supreme Court hearing, with MSNBC cutting away but only after Trump had made false claims about President Joe Biden. CNN took longer to cut away.
