President Donald Trump excoriated the Justice Department prosecutors who investigated him and vowed to use it to target his own enemies in a campaign-style speech at the department’s historic Great Hall on Friday.

The president, once the target of federal prosecution, says he wants to combat “weaponization” of the department, even as he uses its powers to punish enemies and reward allies.

President Donald Trump broke norms Friday when he delivered a rare campaign-like speech outside the Justice Department, railing against judges, prosecutors and others who conducted criminal investigations of him during Joe Biden's presidency.
