George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley long has lectured on the Constitution. Advised Congress on the Constitution. Even represented members of Congress on constitutional issues.
And he’s long been involved in Democratic politics.
Recently, he noted that the party is harder and harder to recognize because of “a new generation of foul-mouthed, censorship-supporting, mob-enabling” leaders.
But even given that standard, Rep. Daniel Goldman, D-N.Y., now has gone too far, Turley explains in a new column.
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
That’s when Goldman claimed an FBI investigation of the leftist violence being launched against Tesla cars, the company, and individual vehicle owners, because of owner Elon Musk’s affiliation with President Donald Trump, is nothing but “lawfare.”
“Goldman’s latest controversy captures how Democrats have now entirely cut the cords of decency and moderation that once tethered their party to the mainstream of our society,” he wrote.
This is the political weaponization of the DOJ.
Trump uses his official authority to defend his benefactor Elon Musk.
The FBI then creates a task force to use our law enforcement to “crack down” on adversaries of Musk’s.
Where are the Republicans so opposed to “lawfare”? https://t.co/PZFbafcZ8V

Goldman, in fact, claimed for the FBI to be investigatin ga long list of crimes that have been inspired by a leftist agenda against President Donald Trump, and Musk: “This is the political weaponization of the DOJ. Trump uses his official authority to defend his benefactor Elon Musk. The FBI then creates a task force to use our law enforcement to ‘crack down’ [sic] on adversaries of Musk’s [sic]. Where are the Republicans so opposed to ‘lawfare’?”
Those, in fact, are “otherworldly,” Turley expressed.
“There are have widespread attacks on Tesla charging stations, vehicles, and dealerships, including multiple arson attacks. It is clearly political violence orchestrated against an American company and American property owners, including individual citizens, to push consumers away from buying Musk products and associations,” he said.
“That sounds a lot like the definition of terrorism. The Justice Department defines domestic terrorism as ‘Violent, criminal acts committed by individuals and/or groups to further ideological goals stemming from domestic influences, such as those of a political, religious, social, racial, or environmental nature.'”
He confirmed the rash of violence against Tesla is “political violence designed to intimidate and harm those with opposing political views.”
And he warned there now is “a sense of license among some on the left in carrying out attacks on those on the right.”
His warning included, “This is how rage rhetoric of leaders like Goldman can fuel violent rage in the most unhinged elements of their party. … Once released by the rage from the confines of reason and civility, it is easy to dismiss the investigation of political violence as ‘political weaponization.’ In attacking the FBI investigation, Goldman is the very voice of an age of rage.”
