1 week agoLuigi Mangione's federal judge orders DOJ to stop making prejudicial pretrial statements after Trump retweets
The firmly worded order out of Manhattan singles out two DOJ officials who retweeted President Donald Trump's televised remarks on Friday and Saturday. "He shot someone in the back as clear as you're looking at me," Trump had said of Mangione in a Fox interview. "He shot him right in the middle of the back - instantly dead. This is a sickness." Trump's remarks, posted on the White House-affiliated X.com account Rapid Response 47, were then reposted by DOJ spokesman Chad Gilmartin and by Brian Nieves, a chief of staff at Main Justice.
