Trump's Return Spurs DOJ, FBI Legal Concerns

President Biden's judicial nominations for Central New York face a potential blockade as the Senate Judiciary Committee prepares to vote, following Trump's advice to Republicans to halt confirmations. Meanwhile, President-elect Donald Trump's return to power has prompted DOJ and FBI officials to consult lawyers, fearing retribution from Trump loyalists, notably with Matt Gaetz nominated as Attorney General. Trump has vowed to pursue what he describes as a 'deep state' that undermined him during his presidency, raising concerns about politically motivated prosecutions. Some DOJ officials maintain that their actions were legitimate and aboveboard, despite the looming threat of legal action. This situation has sparked a debate on the use of government power for revenge, with critics warning against a potential 'witch hunt.'
