The conservative activist named by President Donald Trump as the head of the Justice Department's "Weaponization Working Group" said Tuesday he planned to "name" and "shame" individuals the department determines it is unable to charge with crimes, in what would amount to a major departure from longstanding Justice Department protocols.

Ed Martin described himself at a press conference as the "captain" of the group that is investigating prosecutors who launched past investigations into Trump and his allies.

“There are some really bad actors, some people that did some really bad things to the American people. And if they can be charged, we’ll charge them. But if they can’t be charged, we will name them," Martin said. "And we will name them, and in a culture that respects shame, they should be people that are ashamed. And that’s a fact. That’s the way things work. And so that’s, that’s how I believe the job operates.”



Standing by for SFP expert legal analysis.

As long as it's true, it's not slander.

Which culture is he talking about? Certainly not democrats. This is no better than the strongly worded letter that Jim Jordan and other Congressional Republicans are so fond of.

Martin had no prosecutorial experience when Trump named him to the U.S. attorney position on Inauguration Day, the same day the president mass-pardoned Jan. 6 defendants. Soon, some prosecutors who worked on Capitol attack cases were fired, Martin opened a probe into the office's handling of an obstruction charge used against some of the rioters, and Martin demoted others who played a key role in the prosecutions.



Good.

Leftists have zero ability to feel shame so this is near pointless.

And the ones that do get charged must be lawfared into poverty, before a federal judge protects their criminal buddies.
They made the rules.

Democrats are impossible of being shamed. They have no f*cking shame.

This article is not something to challenge SFP about. He would just brag justice won't prevail and we have it all, was bullshite. So whoopie flip, I'd much rather justice.

It is a depressing bummer in confirming nothing will happen and the same DC crooks will continue every chance given. They will start impeaching Trump when no one gives a hairy rats arse to go vote for more republicans as they as always screw the pooch in failures.

People will be shamed in another 800 page report. How many reports do we have now 2 or 3, and one by the AG that is damning no one read?

We got a consolation prize because those pardoned will be talked about in public as well.

The dems will ignore it and laugh until silver bracelets and perp walks happen. Did Milley get a specific pardon for insurrection and treason?

We are counting on the autopen for justice.

This is probably closest to the correct read.

They are moving goalposts furiously, I reckon.

Well........they could put Biden's mental status on trial for being mentally incompetent , therefore a null pardon was issued.

Well they could also put the autopen on trial indicating Biden was not part of the process literally, therefore a null pardon was issued.

The pardon itself is not supposed to be challenged but the trial activity to show Biden was involved or not would be great process retribution

I call as my first witness....Drooling Joe Biden to the stand...



This autopen scandal is going to blow the F'up.
The bad guys will bend over backwards to avoid the above situation.
Tough guy Joe will want to take the stand to "defend" his position.
Dr.Jill may have to call Hilldawg for a favor.

No dumbass, that is the worst light that NBC NEWS can put it in.

You can always tell when the source isn't named that it will be one known for bullshite, and the whining chorus will shriek about it anyway.
