President Donald Trump spoke at the Justice Department on Friday, where he vocalized many of his problems with the justice system.
Among his comments were attacks on the media and activists, who he said are abusing any judge who agrees with him. He specifically named Supreme Court Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito.
“And honestly, they’re a — very simply — they’re afraid of bad publicity. They don’t want bad publicity,” Trump said. “And it’s truly interference, in my opinion. And it should be illegal. And it probably is illegal in some form. There’s no difference than speaking to a judge or shouting to a judge, or doing whatever you have to do in a courthouse. They’re doing it behind the back. They’re usually doing it anonymously. They’re saying anonymously off the record, the judge is no good.’ But everybody knows where it’s coming from.”

Trump alleged that it was part of a coordinated campaign from legal analysts he began naming, calling them “scum.”
“It’s by the same scum that you have been dealing with for years, like guys like Andrew Weissmann, deranged Jack Smith,” said Trump. “There’s a guy named Norm Eisen. I don’t even know what he looks like. His name is Norm Eisen of CREW. He’s been after me for nine years now. Now, CREW is a charitable organization.”
Eisen is an independent lawyer. CREW stands for Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, a government ethics watchdog group that Eisen co-founded more than two decades ago. Eisen then served as chairman of the board from 2016 to 2019.
Eisen, a former federal ethics czar, was also hired by the House Judiciary Committee as a special counsel after Democrats took back the branch in the 2018 election.
Trump told the room he’s speaking out about it because “these are bad people.”
He returned to attack Eisen again.
“I don’t know who he is. I don’t know what he looks like, but everything I read is Norm Eisen of CREW. And CREW is a charitable organization, and that’s a political thing. His sole life is to get Donald Trump. And he’s been vicious and violent and he’s trying, and he probably had pretty good success over the years. But with me, how did he do? I think I’m president. Am I here because I’m president?”
Trump repeated that he faced “tremendous abuse” even “during the trials” from the legal eagles. He sarcastically called them “these wonderful guys” before saying again, “they’re not legitimate people. They’re — they’re horrible people. They’re scum. And you have to know that. And you’re going to have these cases where you can’t allow yourselves to be deflected. You just can’t let it happen. You have so many — you have such a higher calling.”
