Touaregtweet<p>'Nadat Trump hem tot hoofdaanklager van Washington had benoemd, liet Martin er geen gras over groeien. Hij gaf voorrang aan twee zaken: de gratieverlening van alle 6 jan.-verdachten en een onderzoek naar de aanklagers die betrokken waren bij hun veroordeling. Je kon zeggen: schaamteloze belangenvermenging in een poging de werkelijkheid op haar kop te zetten.
