Summary

Mike Davis, a Trump adviser and possible nominee for attorney general, issued a threatening warning to New York Attorney General Letitia James, who sued Trump for business fraud, not to continue her legal actions against him in his second term, threatening to put her in prison.

Davis’s inflammatory remarks, including personal insults, come as James has vowed to defend Americans against any unconstitutional actions by the new administration.

Known for his extreme rhetoric, Davis has previously suggested punishing journalists and Trump’s political opponents harshly, though it’s often unclear when he’s serious.

Trump has hinted at a significant role for Davis in his administration.

    Literally doing their jobs ≠ “tap dancing for your satisfaction”

    It’s amazing how you apparatchiks keep shifting the burden of responsibility from the ones failing to do their job of governing and campaigning according to the will of the people to the people for failing to reward them for their failure.

    The fire has been burning worse and worse since 1980 at the latest and, far from putting it out, Dem leadership has maintained it and sometimes stoked it.

    What you’re asking for isn’t democracy, it’s serfdom.
