Del. Stacey Plaskett: The DOJ and FBI Are a Check Against White Fragility and Donald Trump

After a would-be assassin tried to kill Donald Trump a couple of weekends ago on the golf course, the narrative in the media quickly became that he was bringing all of these attempts on himself with his fascistic rhetoric. It couldn't be everyone from the president down calling him an existential threat to the country. One of the clips making the rounds at the time was Virgin Islands Del. Stacey Plaskett in 2023 telling MSNBC that Trump "has to be shot" … um, "stopped."

That Freudian slip was a year ago, and Plaskett's TDS hasn't improved. In this clip, she gets us excited by talking about eliminating the FBI and the Justice Department. She wants to preserve them, though, because they're a check on everything from white nationalism to the "twice-impeached convicted felon" Trump.

She forgot Nazis. If you're going to have fascists in there, you might as well include Nazis.

If the twice-impeached convicted felon is reelected, and we hope he is, one of the first things he has to do as a dictator is clean house at the DOJ and the FBI. Merrick Garland and Christopher Wray have got to be sent packing. The only thing they serve to check is parents at school board meetings and Catholics praying outside abortion clinics.

It really is. The bar has been set considerably low.

The Biden-Harris Justice Department and FBI serve as a check against … Donald Trump." Yeah, she did come right out and say it.
