According to CoinMeta, U.S. President Donald Trump posted on social media, accusing Democrats of threatening to impeach U.S. Attorney General and other officials, and threatening to take other punitive measures against them. Trump stated that Democrats themselves admit to lacking any relevant grounds, and that those being threatened have not carried out, nor even considered, any actions that could constitute grounds for impeachment. He referred to this as "the highest level of extortion" and demanded that those responsible be held accountable. Trump also accused Democrats of threatening Republican donors, threatening to impose punishments such as imprisonment simply because they are Republicans or supporters of the Republican Party. He said this further exemplifies the instrumentalization of politics and legal warfare, and mentioned that Michigan Senator Elizabeth Slootkin threatened to hold young people who identify with Republican values, as well as anyone who shows even a slight inclination to support the Republicans, accountable. Trump stated that it is the so-called "extortionists" who should truly be imprisoned, and called on Republicans to take action promptly. At the end of his post, Trump ordered the Department of Justice to immediately investigate these actions.
