The President of the United States Donald Trump expressed his anger at the criticism from the media and political opponents during his speech at the Department of Justice building, which was significantly scrutinized since the moment of his return to the White House. Trump stated: "They spied on my campaign, sabotaged many of the provisions and disinformation operations." The president referred to the federal indictments that were brought against him for obscuring documents during the election campaign, calling them "persecution." "They massively violated the law, persecuted my family, my team and supporters, infringed on my privileges in Mar-a-Lago and did everything possible to ensure that I would not become president of the United States."
