Trump, DOJ allies decry alleged 'weaponization' of agency in ceremony
President Donald Trump visited the Department of Justice headquarters Friday with Attorney General Pam Bondi, FBI director Kash Patel and repeated his now familiar accusation that the Justice Department was "weaponized" to attack him.

"We must be honest about the lies and abuses that have occurred within these walls. Unfortunately, in recent years, a corrupt group of hacks and radicals within the ranks of the American government obliterated that trust and goodwill built up over generations," he said.

The event, which mirrored his campaign rallies, included props such as bags of drugs and boxes labeled "DEA EVIDENCE" in large font.
