""We are past the red line, Melber said. That, if you use the analogy of the boiling frog, when it comes to the rule of law, the frog has been boiled, and it's dead.""
""The rule of law died, Melber said, after Comey was indicted by a grand jury on Thursday in the Eastern District of Virginia.""
""He has been so bad for our Country, for so long, and is now at the beginning of being held responsible for his crimes against our Nation," Trump posted on Truth Social."
President Donald Trump has intensified attacks on political opponents, culminating in public calls for prosecutions and celebration of an indictment. Former FBI Director James Comey was indicted in the Eastern District of Virginia on one count of making false statements and one count of obstruction of justice tied to 2020 Senate testimony. The charges followed the president urging the Attorney General to take action against Comey and other rivals such as Senator Adam Schiff. The indictment has been interpreted as part of a broader effort to retaliate politically and as a moment signaling severe erosion of the rule of law, described metaphorically as a "boiled frog."
