Tulsi Gabbard: This a blatant abuse of power
Former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, D-Hawaii, said the FBI raid on former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago home is part of an increasing trend targeting those who disagree with those in power on 'Jesse Watters Primetime.'
Former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, D-Hawaii, said the Justice Department is becoming increasingly polarized after former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago home was raided.
TULSI GABBARD: This is something that every American should be extremely concerned about because this raid is just the latest serious escalation of this disturbing trend that we have seen of blatant abuse of power by those in power to not only protect their friends, but to target their political opponents or frankly anyone who dares to dissent or challenge or disagree or even question what this administration is doing. And there are a number of examples that we can point to not only abuse of power within the Department of Justice, within the FBI or law enforcement agencies, but also the Department of Homeland Security and the IRS.
