Trump Promised Revenge. He’s Using the DOJ to Make It Happen

When President Trump took office in January, he made it clear that retribution against his perceived political enemies was a key part of his second-term agenda.

He’s used a variety of tools at his disposal — and with his encouragement, the Department of Justice has indicted former FBI Director James Comey, New York State Attorney General Letitia James and former National Security Advisor John Bolton.

On today’s Big Take podcast, host Sarah Holder is joined by Bloomberg senior national political reporter Nancy Cook and Department of Justice reporter Chris Strohm to talk about how these cases are playing out and the new precedent they could set for future administrations.
