President Donald Trump announced a 'proud new chapter' of the Ministry of Justice on Friday that would put an end to the 'armament' of the government in walking speech that again visited his old wounds and allowed him to shine.
“We are running the page on four long years of corruption, armament and surrender to violent criminals and we restore honest, equal and impartial justice under the law,” said Trump, standing for the seal of the Ministry of Justice.
But the most important point of his speech was to explain the victory over his political rivals and the federal officials who tried to prosecute him. It was another environment for him to repeat his complaints about things against him and to mock his overcome rival, Joe Biden.
Trump described the federal things against him as 'bulls ***', and admitted that he broke a promise to wife Melania Trump by using the word.
“I won't use a bad word. I promised my wife that I would never use a bad word, “he said before he started using an expletive:” The business against me was Bulls ***. '
From the campaign, Trump has demonstrated his interest to have control over the department and what investigations it pursues.
The visit is the first of Trump and the first by a president in a decade. The last president who visited the department was Barack Obama, who attended the then departure ceremony of Attorney General Eric Holder.

Trump spoke in the large hall of the department, the same phase that Merrick Garland, the attorney general of Joe Biden, announced research into Trump.
The president praised the officials he set to give top positions in the judiciary and shot those who led it in the last government as 'bad people'. Really bad people. '
“In recent years, a corrupt group of hacks and radicals within the ranks of the US government have built up trust and goodwill over generations.”
“But in the end the criminals failed and won the truth. Freedom, justice and democracy won and especially won the American people, “he added.
The president used his speech to arrange himself against his usual list of observed mistakes against him: spying on his campaign, persecuting his family, robbing Mar-A-Lago and “doing everything within their power to prevent me from becoming the president of the United States.”
He even used biblical terms and complained that the law was used to punish the 'innocent' and 'reward the wicked'.
Much of his vitriol was aimed at Biden and Garland. He said about them: 'There can be no horrible betrayal of American values ​​than to use the law to terrorize the innocent and to reward the wicked. That is what they did at a level that has never been seen before. '
He complained that he had to take 'enormous abuse' in the trials against him and then pointed to his election victory: 'How did I do it? I think I'm president. '
Trump repeatedly walked during his comments – at one point it was a long tier about basketball coach Bobby Knight. His speech seemed like he during the 2024 elections at campaign rallies.
Himself 'the most important law enforcement officer in our country' explains ', Trump promised:' I am standing for you today to declare that the days are over and they will never come back. '
He even hinted that there should be retribution.
“The people who have done this to us must go to prison,” he said without mentioning names or indicating who he meant.
“I was attacked by a political opponent. And probably it helped me to be attacked more than anyone else in the history of our country, “he said.
He also complained that some reporting is 'illegal' by the news media.
'These networks and these newspapers are really no different than the well -paid political employee. And it has to stop. It must be illegal. It influences judges and it really changes the law and that simply cannot be illegal. I don't believe it is legal, “he said.

He also scored actions that he undertook as president.
“We also ended the approval of the Biden Crime Family and Joe Biden themselves,” he said.
He mocks Biden and refers to a report from the special counselor who referred to Biden as “a sympathetic, well -meaning, older man with a bad memory.”
“He was essentially found guilty, but they said he was incompetent and therefore we don't let him find him guilty,” he said.
“I would rather have been found guilty than what they thought with him,” Trump said, the audience laughing. “They said he didn't know what the hell he was doing and that's why he is released. I said, I would rather be convicted, pam than that. I said to condemn myself, don't say that. '
He ended his speech by saying that he was invited to come and give it.
“We will restore the prestige of this great department and we will reduce confidence in our legal system for the citizens of every race, religion, color and created,” he said.
'I want to tell you that this has been a great honor. I was asked to do it and I said it is appropriate that I do it? And I realized that it is not only appropriate, I think it is really important because I may never do it again. I may never have another chance to do it again, because this is something that I leave to the best people. '
There were a few hundred people in the audience for his comments – all fiery Trump supporters.
It is also unusual because Trump was the center of two federal investigations and with regard to his actions regarding the 2020 presidential elections and a bound to find his Mar-A-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, for classified documents.
He often scolded against the 'armament' against him, referring to the federal investigations into him.
Trump has hindered himself by a statement by the Supreme Court that gives presidents immunity for every action that is performed while they are in function.
He has fulfilled the highest rank of the Ministry of Justice with loyalists and his own personal defense lawyers.
These include Pami Bondi, who defended him during his accusation process in his first term, and two of his lawyers in the porn star Hush Money test in which Trump was convicted by a judge in New York last year.
In one of her first guidelines after her confirmation, Bondi DOJ team officials ordered to 'defend the interests of the presidency.
She guided Trump to the department when he arrived to give his comments. She showed him his official portrait on the wall.
“That's a nice photo,” said Trump.
The president also installed the old loyalistic Kash Patel as director of the FBI.
Many DOJ employees who have worked on the Trump research or who were dismissed or resigned on the Riot persecutions of Capitol on January 6.
Trump, in his first term, had difficult relationships with his manual Palste Advocaten -General – Jeff Sessions was fired immediately after the interim elections of 2018 and Bill Barr took weeks after the public dispute of Trump's false claims of fraud in the 2020 elections.

But on Friday he dominated the department.
The president and the other speakers have delivered their comments in addition to a stack of boxes and packages that are labeled as 'DEA recovery material'. The stage was flanked by drawing with the message: “Fighting fentanyl in America.”
The packages represented 180 kg Fentanyl, of which Bondi noted that they could kill 90 million people – the population of Texas, California and Florida – in its pure form.
More than 200 local sheriffs, law enforcement officials, staff of Capitol Hill offices, families affected by the Fentanyl epidemic and others who carry red 'Make America Great Again' to hear from Trump.
Two angels mothers – families of victims killed by illegal immigrants – were also present.
Senate chairman of the judiciary Committee Chuck Grassley and Senator Bill Cassidy were seen in the crowd.
The crowd was asked to sit in the hall for hours before Trumps arrival, but they were given a table with sandwich sandwiches, pretzels, chips and popcorn to endure time.
Part of Trump's favorite rally music also filled the space with hits from Elvis, The Beach Boys, The Musical Grease, The Opera Phantom of the Opera and the Luciano Pavarotti and James Brown version of It's a Men's World Blearing while guests waited for the president.
