Maybe he is worried about leaks from Democrats who want to sabotage any current negotiations? It has happened before.

I think you are looking in the wrong place to see democracy disintegrate.

2000 isn't a very big number when it comes to Trump hating lawyers and judges, especially if paid by taxpayers.

It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers−out of unorthodoxy

Do you have proof that each and every one of those lawyers and judges are "Trump haters?"

From homeagain's link:

The actions prompted more than 2,000 former Justice Department officials who served in Republican as well as Democratic administrations to sign a statement calling on Barr to resign.


At what point does Trump's behavior cross the line? Only when it impacts you (meant in the general sense, not replying to anyone here in particular) personally? He has now attacked a federal judge and a juror. The judge is a member of another branch of government that is meant to be a check and balance to his, does not serve under him, and she is doing her job. The juror is an ordinary citizen who was screened and chosen for that jury duty by both the prosecution and defense - any one of us could be a juror. How would you feel if the President of the United States attacked you personally for a decision you made while doing your civic duty?

This is not normal or acceptable behavior from the person leading the Executive Branch of the government.

The principle of the Constitution is that of a separation of legislative, Executive and Judiciary functions, except in cases specified. If this principle be not expressed in direct terms, it is clearly the spirit of the Constitution, and it ought to be so commented and acted on by every friend of free government. ~Thomas Jefferson, January, 1797

[T]o preserve the republican form and principles of our Constitution and cleave to the salutary distribution of powers which that [the Constitution] has established... are the two sheet anchors of our Union. If driven from either, we shall be in danger of foundering.
~Thomas Jefferson, letter to Judge William Johnson, June 12, 1823

Of one man in especial, beyond anyone else, the citizens of a republic should beware, and that is of the man who appeals to them to support him on the ground that he is hostile to other citizens of the republic, that he will secure for those who elect him, in one shape or another, profit at the expense of other citizens of the republic. It makes no difference whether he appeals to class hatred or class interest, to religious or anti-religious prejudice. The man who makes such an appeal should always be presumed to make it for the sake of furthering his own interest. ~ Theodore Roosevelt, Address delivered at the Sorbonne, Paris, Apr. 23, 1910

Federal judges' association calls emergency meeting after DOJ intervenes in case of Trump ally Roger Stone
Kevin Johnson, USA TODAY | February 17, 2020

WASHINGTON – A national association of federal judges has called an emergency meeting to address growing concerns about the intervention of Justice Department officials and President Donald Trump in politically sensitive cases, the group’s president said Monday.

Philadelphia U.S. District Judge Cynthia Rufe, who heads the independent Federal Judges Association, said the group “could not wait” until its spring conference to weigh in on a deepening crisis that has enveloped the Justice Department and Attorney General William Barr.

Rufe, nominated to the bench by President George W. Bush, said the group of more than 1,000 federal jurists called for the meeting last week after Trump criticized prosecutors' initial sentencing recommendation for his friend Roger Stone and the Department of Justice overruled them.

Trump also took a swipe at the federal judge who is set to preside at Stone’s sentencing hearing Thursday.


"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

SC, you (collectively) have set the bar too high. Muller was going to prove he was in Putin's pocket. There have been countless other hair on fires since then.

It is like the boy who cried wolf. The more times you call wolf the more people want to kick the Shepard boy.

How would you feel if the President of the United States attacked you personally for a decision you made while doing your civic duty?

How would you feel if you were a defendant and found out the jury foreman had an extreme bias against you that wasn't disclosed?

As for my statement about Trump haters, I'm using my common sense. Do you know of anybody that is indifferent when it comes to liking Trump or is it your experience that people either love him or hate him? The Russia joke was investigated by all Trump haters and not one who was a supporter or even someone who would question all the shady and illegal methods used to take him down.

And one more thing, when you say Trump "attacks" someone, you're basically saying he doesn't have a right to criticize anyone he disagree's with. Being a judge or a juror does not give you some kind of immunity from scrutiny. Like it or not, even the president has the right to free speech. I can think of many instances when Obama criticized police officers before he had any facts and I don't remember you saying anything about that.

"Campaign Donations Show Letter Demanding Barr’s Resignation Comes From Leftist Hacks Pretending To Be ‘Bipartisan’
Had liberal outlets bothered to act like journalists, they would have quickly discovered evidence of a partisan bias underlying the letter calling for William Barr’s resignation.
Margot ClevelandBy Margot Cleveland
FEBRUARY 19, 2020
“More than 1,100 former federal prosecutors and Justice Department officials called on Attorney General William P. Barr on Sunday to step down after he intervened last week to lower the Justice Department’s sentencing recommendation for President Trump’s longtime friend Roger J. Stone, Jr.,” The New York Times reported on Sunday—if you can call it reporting.

Not once in the 800-word article did the Times address the overwhelming evidence that the thousand-plus signatories were politically motivated critics of President Donald Trump. In fact, to the contrary, the Times claimed “the former Justice Department lawyers” “came from across the political spectrum” to sign the open letter that condemned “President Trump’s and Attorney General Barr’s interference in the fair administration of justice.” Those actions, the much-touted letter claimed, “require Mr. Barr to resign.”
