Former United States President Donald Trump on Wednesday asked Republican lawmakers in Congress to Reduce funding for the US Department of Justice and the FBIafter being accused in New York of 34 counts of falsifying business records. “Republicans in Congress should stop funding the DOJ (Department of Justice) and the FBI until they come to their senses. The Democrats have fully armed law enforcement in our country and are perversely using this abuse of power to interfere in our elections, already under siege,” Trump said on his Truth social network.

The former president has turned to his social network to react after a day on Tuesday in which, after declaring in New York, he assured, already back in Florida, that The US “is going to hell” and that it never thought that “something like this would happen”, in reference to an unprecedented event in the 245 years of history of this country as an independent nation. Trump was accused of allegedly having orchestrated a legal scheme to silence three people who could harm his campaign for the Presidency in 2016, including the porn actress Stormy Daniels, prosecutor Alvin Bragg explained after the indictment.

The former president said today on his social network that “almost all legal and political analysts have said that the unfair and morally repugnant accusation presented against me yesterday IT HAS NO MERIT -legal-, and it is not even a case. There was no crime and the Statute of Limitations has been violated for many years anyway.” Trump’s proposal, to be supported by his partyIt would mean a shift in policy for Republicans, who in the past have supported strong funding for both the Justice Department and the FBI, as well as criticized proposals to cut funding for those agencies.

Trump said on his social network today that the Democrats have put together the system of laws “as America has never seen before,” but that the people, however, “sees what is happening and will not allow it to continue” something like that. The statements by Trump, who will fight for the Republican nomination for the US elections in November 2024, concluded with the phrase “tremendous spirit, right now, in the Republican Party.” While he was president (2017 -2021), Trump supported spending increases for the Department of Justice and actually increased by about 4% during his tenure.

Trump, after declaring before the judge in New York, assured that the case of the porn actress Stormy Daniels is unfounded and was done “to interfere in the 2024 elections”, so according to his words “it should be dismissed immediately”. Manhattan prosecutor Alvin Bragg accused Trump of allegedly orchestrating a legal scheme to hush up three people who could harm his 2016 presidential campaign, including Daniels. In the public statement at his South Florida residence, Trump presented himself as someone they have been persecuting since he became President in 2017, reviewing all the investigations that have been opened with special emphasis on the secret official documents found. at Mar-a-Lago, his Palm Beach mansion.
