Former President Donald Trump walks to make comments to members of the media
after being found guilty on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in
the first degree at Manhattan Criminal Court, Thursday, May 30, 2024, in New
York. Donald Trump became the first former president to be convicted of felony
crimes as a New York jury found him guilty of 34 felony counts of falsifying
business records in a scheme to illegally influence the 2016 election through
hush money payments to a porn actor who said the two had sex. (AP Photo/Seth

Senate conservatives led by Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah), the chair of the Senate
Steering Committee, say they will oppose nonsecurity funding increases that
would allow the Department of Justice and other agencies to engage in “partisan
lawfare” after a Manhattan jury convicted former President Trump on 34 felony
counts Thursday.

Lee joined vice presidential aspirants Sens. JD Vance (R-Ohio) and Marco Rubio
(R-Fla.) and other Senate GOP colleagues in pledging to retaliate against what
they say has been the Biden administration’s weaponization of the Justice
Department.



The eight senators who signed the statement say they won’t vote to confirm the
administration’s political and judicial appointees or allow expedited
consideration on the Senate floor of Democratic bills not directly related to
public safety.

“The White House has made a mockery of the rule of law and fundamentally altered
our politics in un-American ways. As a Senate Republican conference, we are
unwilling to aid and abet this White House in its project to tear this country
apart,” the senators said in a joint statement.

Sens. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.), Rick Scott (R-Fla.), Eric Schmitt (R-Mo.),
Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), and Roger Marshall (R-Kan.) also signed the letter.

“Strongly worded statements are not enough. Those who turned our judicial system
into a political cudgel must be held accountable. We are no longer cooperating
with any Democrat legislative priorities or nominations, and we invite all
concerned Senators to join our stand,” Lee posted on the social platform X along
with a copy of the letter.

The senators said: “We will not 1) allow any increase to non-security elated
funding for this administration, or any appropriations bill which funds partisan
lawfare; 2) vote to confirm this administration’s political and judicial
appointees; and 3) allow expedited consideration and passage of Democrat
legislation or authorities that are not directly relevant to the safety of the
American people.”

Trump was convicted in a Manhattan criminal court Wednesday on 34 charges of
falsifying business records. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D) brought
the case. 



Special counsel Jack Smith, working under the Justice Department’s authority,
has also charged Trump with attempting to overturn the results of the 2020
election and mishandling classified documents after leaving the White House.
