"Yes, according to a report from the New York Times, lawyers in at least six U.S. Attorney's Offices just received a memo from a senior DOJ official inviting them to flex those creative muscles and figure out how the administration can put George Soros in jail. Is there any reason to put Soros in jail? Not that anyone can tell!"
"He also suggested this could be a RICO case because he's both not a lawyer and incredibly dumb. In any event, federal prosecutors are now tasked with inventing charges to make the boss happy. He already posted-then-deleted a message excoriating Attorney General Bondi for not prosecuting his political enemies, so it's time to get busy over there! Even if there's no conceivable or, frankly, professionally ethical justification."
Senior Justice Department officials sent a directive to multiple U.S. Attorney's Offices inviting prosecutors to explore potential criminal charges against George Soros. The memo lists possible charges ranging from arson to material support of terrorism and encourages creative legal theories to generate prosecutable offenses. President Trump said Soros should be put in jail and has publicly identified Soros as a political enemy. Federal prosecutors have been described as tasked with inventing charges to satisfy presidential demands despite absence of clear legal or ethical grounds. A deleted presidential social media post criticized Attorney General Bondi for not prosecuting political opponents.
