  • Legal experts react to a DOJ memo ordering federal prosecutors to investigate officials who hinder Trump's mass deportation plans.

The article from MSN discusses the legal implications of former President Donald Trump's "revenge tour," where he has been targeting individuals he perceives as adversaries with threats of legal action and public criticism. Legal experts are questioning whether Trump's actions could be interpreted as witness intimidation or obstruction of justice, especially given the ongoing legal battles he faces. Trump has openly discussed using the Department of Justice to investigate figures like Joe Biden and others if he were to return to office. This has raised concerns about the potential abuse of power and the weaponization of the legal system for personal vendettas. The article highlights the tension between Trump's First Amendment rights to free speech and the boundaries of legal conduct, with some attorneys suggesting that while Trump's statements are provocative, they might not cross the legal threshold into criminality unless they directly interfere with judicial proceedings or witness testimony.
