Trump vows to probe prosecutors, says Biden represents anarchy – Times of India

MANCHESTAR, NEW HAMPSHIRE: Donald Trump said on Thursday that if he wins the 2024 presidential election, he will order the Justice Department to investigate “radical” county and state prosecutors whom he accused, without evidence, of targeting conservatives. In a campaign speech, the former president, who faces multiple criminal investigations, said the prosecutors were “persecuting conservatives” and touched on his policy positions and personal grievances as he painted himself as a victim of the so-called Deep State.
“On day one of my new administration, I will direct the DOJ to investigate every radical district attorney and attorney general in America for their illegal, racist . . . enforcement of the law,” Trump told supporters in Manchester, New Hampshire.
Trump faces at least four criminal investigations including a federal probe into his alleged role in the January 6, 2021 attack on the US Capitol by his supporters and a recent New York indictment related to a hush money payment to a porn star. Trump has denied wrongdoing and called the investigations politically motivated.
The call for federal probes of prosecutors fits what critics have described as Trump’s increasingly authoritarian rhetoric on the campaign trail. On Thursday, he repeated plans for a “truth and reconciliation commission” as part of a purge of the federal bureaucracy.
Trump also sought to reframe the choice between him and President Joe Biden. Biden, a Democrat, launched his re-election campaign two days ago with a video promising to protect personal freedoms from “extremists” linked to the former Republican president. Trump said the US was a “failing nation” and pointed to economic data on Thursday showing US economic growth slowed dramatically in the first three months of 2023
