There’s nothing routine about the DOJ acting as the President’s personal law firm in a civil suit.

The fact that this lawsuit is not new, but the DOJ just realized its their jurisdiction. You know, once every other avenue of getting it dismissed failed, all of a sudden - you know what, Trump was acting within his "official duties as President" and can't be sued.

Our entire legal system has been turned into a joke by Trump and the Republican enablers.
