May 6, 2026 – Obama complains to Stephen Colbert about the ‘politicization’ of Trump’s DOJ

In Email/Dossier/Govt Corruption Investigations, Featured Timeline Entries by Katie Weddington

President Obama: “The White House shouldn’t be able to direct the Attorney General to go around prosecuting whoever the president wants prosecuted. The AG is the people’s lawyer, it’s not the president’s consigliere. You can’t have a situation in which whoever’s in charge of the government starts using that to go after their political enemies”

Physician, heal thyself!

Barack Obama lectures America about not weaponizing the DOJ, yet his administration did exactly that. His DOJ secretly seized phone records from over twenty Associated Press lines.
They spied on Fox News reporter James Rosen, tracking his movements, raiding his emails, and labeling him a criminal co-conspirator.
The IRS deployed targeted BOLO lists to harass and delay Tea Party, patriot, and 9/12 groups with invasive demands.
And his team knew the Clinton campaign manufactured the Steele dossier, yet still unleashed Crossfire Hurricane on the country.

This lecture on norms rings hollow from the man who spent eight years demonstrating how to erode them.

The hypocrisy is breathtaking.

Former President Barack Obama made recent comments about the power and influence of the president, saying that “the White House shouldn’t be able to direct the attorney general to go around prosecuting whoever the president wants to prosecute.”

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche called the remarks “extraordinarily rich.”

“How about we think about what happened the past four years,” Blanche asked CBS News’ @camiloreports, before going on to reference multiple indictments brought against President Trump.
