Trump Banner at Justice Department Sparks Outrage
A banner featuring Donald Trump and the slogan “Make America Safe Again” was displayed at the Justice Department, a move that has drawn criticism for undermining the department’s traditional independence. This display follows a pattern of the Justice Department pursuing cases against perceived political opponents since Trump’s return to office. The department’s spokesperson stated the banner was to celebrate the country’s 250th anniversary and the department’s work at President Trump’s direction, though the banner itself did not mention the anniversary. This event is part of broader efforts by Trump to exert his influence on Washington’s landmarks and institutions.
