Cuomo: “DOJ must immediately explain the reason for its raid & it must be more than a search for inconsequential archives or it will be viewed as a political tactic and undermine" credibility

“This raid strengthens that case for millions of Americans who will see this as unjust persecution,” Yang wrote on Twitter on Tuesday.”

“Former Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang and former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo questioned the Department of Justice for authorizing the FBI to raid former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago property.

Yang and Cuomo’s Tuesday statements became the few voices from non-Republicans who questioned the nature of the raid as being political.

“I’m no Trump fan. I want him as far away from the White House as possible. But a fundamental part of his appeal has been that it’s him against a corrupt government establishment,” Yang, who runs the Forward Party, a national political party that brands itself as a movement away from the “broken political system,” wrote on Twitter on Monday.
