Attacks federal judge and prosecutors over Roger Stone sentencing
After career prosecutors recommended a 7-9 year sentence for Roger Stone, Trump attacked the recommendation as a "miscarriage of justice" on Twitter. Hours later, the Justice Department overruled the prosecutors to seek a lighter sentence, prompting all four career prosecutors to withdraw from the case in protest. Trump then attacked the judge, Amy Berman Jackson, claiming she treated Paul Manafort unfairly. The intervention demonstrated Trump's willingness to weaponize the DOJ to protect his political allies.
"This is a horrible and very unfair situation. The real crimes were on the other side, as nothing happens to them. Cannot allow this miscarriage of justice!" — Twitter, February 11, 2020
