President Donald Trump released a statement through his campaign website on Monday that criticized the Biden-Harris administration’s Department of Justice and FBI’s handling of the second assassination attempt against him in Florida.
Trump’s lengthy statement condemned the government’s bias in both his Florida case and other issues throughout Biden’s time in the White House.
“The charges brought against the maniac assassin are a slap on the wrist. It’s no wonder, since the DOJ and FBI have been coming after me nonstop with Weaponized Lawfare since I announced my first Historic Campaign for the Presidency,” Trump said in the statement.
Trump also chronicled the many claims of the Biden-Harris administration’s efforts against him.
“From Russia, Russia, Russia, Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine, Iran, Iran, Iran, Impeachment Hoax Number One, Impeachment Hoax Number Two, to the Lawless Documents Hoax brought after an Illegal and unConstitutional Raid of my home, on which I am suing the DOJ for their wrongful acts, to the January 6th Hoax in Washington, D.C., where the J6 Unselect Committee illegally deleted and destroyed all Documents, the Manhattan D.A.’s Zombie Case, the New York A.G. Scam, illegally Spying on my Campaign, to censoring the Hunter Biden Laptop from Hell, which was criminally led by the fake 51 Intelligence Officials who lied and claimed it was ‘Russian Interference and Disinformation,’ while the Laptop was, in fact, Hunter Biden – Not Russia, and exposed Crooked Joe and his family for their decades of grift – and many lawless, Radical attacks against their Political Opponent, ME,” he continued.
The 45th president also alleged a conflict of interest with the Justice Department and FBI, referring to “FAKE CASES” against him.
“The DOJ and FBI have a Conflict of Interest since they have been obsessed with “Getting Trump” for so long. It’s very difficult to trust the Biden/Harris DOJ/FBI to investigate the assassination attempts, due to Election Interference and the FAKE CASES brought against me, including their control over local D.A.s and A.G.s,” Trump added.
“Shockingly, after the bullet went through my ear on that fateful day in Butler, Pennsylvania, the FBI Director went before Congress and falsely said that it may not have been a bullet, “It was just glass or shrapnel” – a lie condemned by even my worst enemies. What he said was disgraceful, especially since it was witnessed LIVE by millions of people, and he was forced to immediately retract,” he stated.
Trump also called for Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis and the state of Florida to oversee the latest assassination attempt against him.
“If the DOJ and FBI cannot do their job honestly and without bias, and hold the aspiring assassin responsible to the full extent of the Law, Governor Ron DeSantis and the State of Florida have already agreed to take the lead on the investigation and prosecution,” Trump wrote.
“Florida charges would be much more serious than the ones the FBI has announced. The TRUTH would be followed, wherever it leads. OUR JUSTICE SYSTEM IS CORRUPT AND DISCREDITED, especially as it pertains to the 45th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump. LET FLORIDA HANDLE THE CASE!” he concluded.
The statement comes just days after a bipartisan group of lawmakers introduced legislation to require the Secret Service to increase the level of protection for sitting presidents and major presidential candidates.
After the second attempt at the 45th president’s life in Florida, the House brought the bill to a vote on Friday. It passed unanimously, with a final tally of 405-0 voting to elevate the legislation to the upper chamber.
