RUSH EXCERPT:
BUTLER: "When I started at the. Justice Department. My big case was. Against a. Republican senator. We investigated. That senator during the term of. A Republican. President. And. We brought charges during the term of a. Democratic president. Politics never came. Up. When we had meetings with the attorney general. It was about the strength of our case. I can’t imagine That the attorney general would have Reported to the White House anything About the case. I don’t have that. Same assurance. With this administration. This attorney general. And. This president. Here’s a fun fact. Since Watergate, every. Single president has been. The subject of a special counsel investigation, except Barack Obama. When we look at the kinds of threats that Trump has made against special counsel Jack Smith and the lawyers who worked on those cases, the FBI agents who’ve been fired, None of those other presidents liked those investigations, but nobody tried to get the investigators and prosecutors fired, much less locked up, which is what Trump has suggested he wants to happen."
