"I just came out of the Biden witch hunt trial in Manhattan, the ‘Icebox,’ and was shown reports that crooked Joe Biden’s DOJ, in their illegal and unconstitutional raid of Mar-A-Lago, authorized the FBI to use deadly (lethal) force. Now we know, for sure, that Joe Biden is a serious threat to democracy. He is mentally unfit to hold office - 25th amendment," Trump said via Truth Social on Tuesday.
US Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene said the information was grounds for impeaching US Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray.
