Republicans say the Biden Administration weaponized the DOJ, but there's no one Democrats dislike more than Attorney General Merrick Garland. Whether or not Bolton is charged, what's happening right now is the definition of weaponization. Just listen to how JD Vance talks about the investigation.

Tariffs are at their highest since the Great Depression, pushing prices up nearly 2%—a $2,400 hit per household. Shoes cost 39% more, apparel 37%. Growth slows, jobs vanish, and families pay the price. Call it what it is: a hidden tax making America poorer, not stronger.
