'Fascists all!' Trump rages at investigators after Jack Smith forces a top aide to testify
Former President Donald Trump on Wednesday threw a fit on Truth Social over the multiple criminal investigations he's facing.
Trump's latest angry rant came after aide Taylor Budowich was forced to testify before a grand jury in Florida in one of special counsel Jack Smith's probes into the former president.
As he has done in the past, Trump accused investigators of trying to sabotage his chances at winning the 2024 presidential election.
"Wow, this is turning out to be the greatest & most vicious instance of ELECTION INTERFERENCE in the history of our Country," he wrote. "Remember, I’m leading DeSanctimonious BIG in the Polls but, more importantly, I’m leading Biden by a lot. Also, & perhaps most importantly, they are launching all of the many Fake Investigations against me RIGHT SMACK IN THE MIDDLE OF MY CAMPAIGN, something which is unheard of & not supposed to happen. DOJ, FBI, NEW YORK A.G., NEW YORK D.A., ATLANTA D.A. FASCISTS ALL!"

In reality, all of the investigations into the former president had started before he officially announced his 2024 candidacy.
Trump currently faces a slew of legal problems, including a civil lawsuit over allegedly fraudulent business practices from New York Attorney General Letitia James; criminal charges related to his hush-money payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels; two different investigations into his efforts to illegally remain in power after losing the 2020 election to President Joe Biden; and an investigation into his decision to stash top-secret government documents at his Mar-a-Lago resort.
Trump was also recently found liable for sexually abusing and defaming journalist E. Jean Carroll.
