    The target letter that former President Donald Trump says that he received over the weekend in special counsel Jack Smith's federal criminal investigation into his alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election mentions three statutes that the former president may have violated.

    ABC News reported that multiple sources confirmed to the publication that the three federal statutes include: conspiracy to commit offense or to defraud the United States, deprivation of rights under color of law, and tampering with a witness, victim or an informant.

    The letter does not give any details of how prosecutors believe that Trump may have violated the laws, the report said.

    The report added that Trump's allies and lawyers have been contacting everyone they know in Trump's orbit who also could have received a target letter and it appears only Trump has received one.

    "Deranged Jack Smith, the prosecutor with Joe Biden's DOJ, sent a letter (again, it was Sunday night!) stating that I am a TARGET of the January 6th Grand Jury investigation, and giving me a very short 4 days to report to the Grand Jury, which almost always means an Arrest and Indictment," Trump wrote on social media on Tuesday.

    Smith was appointed by Attorney General Merrick Garland in November to investigate both Trump's handling of sensitive documents and his alleged efforts to overturn the election. The Washington grand jury is believed to be looking into Trump's conduct in the time between the 2020 election and Jan. 6, 2021.

    The grand jury meeting in in Washington's E. Barrett Prettyman U.S. Courthouse is believed to have heard from Trump's vice president, Mike Pence, as well as Pence's former chief of staff. Marc Short; former Director of the Office of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe; White House lawyers Patrick Philbin and Pat Cipollone and several others.

In light of continued developments, primarily since 2008, there exists in these United States a Legal System which operates on a proved Two Tiered approach to justice rendered, which primarily benefits Democratic Elites and Woke Ideological Virtue Signalers, representing their co-dependent wards, to the expressed exclusion of normal hardworking American citizens: What is your suggestion in remedying this widespread injustice and, if not corrected, its existential outcome for our Constitutional Republic?

  Complete overhaul of the Department of Justice and their enforcers - the FBI - to reflect a far more honest justice system to keep patriots remaining calm.

  Disband the FBI, and request that congress investigate all unethical and non patriotic practices to partially right the wrongs of a distrusted and politically weaponized "Department of Justice."

  Continue with the current system since the two tiered justice system has been so remarkably beneficial to Democratic Socialist political hegemony; chronic distrust in institutions notwithstanding.
