Prominent former White House aides like Stephen Bannon and Stephen Miller have demanded locally elected Republicans use their power to target Democrats. Ronny Jackson, a House representative from Texas, said he would encourage Congress to âaggressively go afterâ President Biden and his family. And Laura Loomer, a far-right activist, said that some Democrats should âget the death penalty.â They are among a growing chorus of Republicans who say that the criminal cases against Trump are a political weaponization of the justice system. Based on that premise, they argue that Republicans should do the same thing. Seeking legal retribution is nothing new for Trump, who in 2016 echoed chants of âLock her upâ against Hillary Clinton. But the intensity of anger and open desire to use the criminal justice system against Democrats after last weekâs verdict surpasses anything seen before. Many of the calls have come from people who are expected to play larger roles in a potential second term under Trump. The clamor has left little room for moderate or traditional Republicans, such as Larry Hogan, who is looking to flip a Senate seat in Maryland. After he implored Americans to ârespect the verdict,â Trumpâs daughter-in-law, who is also the co-chair of the Republican National Committee, said that Hogan â[doesnât deserve the respect of anyone in the Republican Party](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRoQ2KmP0TcaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wNi8wNS91cy9wb2xpdGljcy9sYXJyeS1ob2dhbi10cnVtcC5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU3JmVtYz1lZGl0X25lXzIwMjQwNjA1Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTEyNTQ3OCZubD10aGUtZXZlbmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTY4ODAyJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpmVabdYGYGuQZ1Uht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAM~).â For more: Our polling experts tried to figure out if Trumpâs guilty verdict changed any votersâ minds.

The congestion pricing plan was slated to start June 30. Mary Altaffer/Associated Press
New Yorkâs governor halted its congestion pricing plan In a stunning shift, Gov. Kathy Hochul of New York announced today that she was shelving the long-awaited tolling plan known as congestion pricing. Her move came just a few weeks before New York City was set to become the first American city to charge motorists for entering its busy downtown streets. Hochul, who just two weeks ago defended the plan as critical to making the city âmore livable,â [cited economic concerns](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRoQ2KmP0TnaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wNi8wNS9ueXJlZ2lvbi9jb25nZXN0aW9uLXByaWNpbmctcGF1c2UtaG9jaHVsLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTcmZW1jPWVkaXRfbmVfMjAyNDA2MDUmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTI1NDc4Jm5sPXRoZS1ldmVuaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xNjg4MDImdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmZVpt1gZga5BnVSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAw~~). She said she feared that a toll to drive into Manhattanâs business district would âcreate another obstacle to our economic recovery.â The move angered environmentalists, transit advocates and economists, and eliminated a projected $1 billion a year for the cityâs buses and subways. Hochul is said to be looking at filling the funding gap with a tax on city businesses.
