DOJ Releases Letter Penned by Second Trump Assassin, Promising $150,000 to Anyone Who Could "Finish the Job" by Killing Trump
Bear in mind, this is the same DOJ that won't let anyone read the Trans Terrorist's journals and routinely lies about political motivations behind attacks to avoid "backlash."
But putting out an open offer for an assassin to kill Trump passes DOJ muster.
Seems that only Some Lives Matter.
The Department of Justice is facing backlash for releasing what critics call a "hit" on former President Donald Trump, after releasing a letter from Ryan Wesley Routh, who attempted to assassinate the former president and offered $150,000 to anyone who could "finish the job." Lawmakers and commentators have slammed the DOJ, warning that the release could inspire copycat attacks and increase the threat to Trump.
Key Details:
On Monday, the DOJ made the letter public as part of a court filing to justify keeping Routh in custody on federal gun charges. The letter, addressed to "the world," read, "This was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump but I failed you... It is up to you now to finish the job."
Routh was arrested on September 15th after a failed attempt to assassinate Trump at his West Palm Beach golf course. Secret Service agents fired on Routh after spotting him with a rifle, but he fled in a black SUV before being arrested.
The letter's release has drawn sharp criticism, with Florida Rep. Michael Waltz questioning, "Why would the DOJ release a letter where an assassin puts a bounty on DJT's head to encourage copycats?" Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene echoed this, accusing the DOJ of "offering a bounty on Trump's head."
