Elie Honig, a former federal prosecutor and CNN analyst, criticized President Trump's recent speech at the Department of Justice, describing it as a 'desecration' of a venue traditionally reserved for important messages about justice. Trump diverted from the event's focus on fentanyl trafficking to voice grievances against his political opponents and the current DOJ, branding prosecutors with derogatory terms. Honig contrasted Trump's approach with past AG speeches, highlighting a disappointing shift in how justice and respect for the department's integrity are conveyed.
