A large banner of Donald Trump was hung outside of the Justice Department headquarters in Washington, DC, on Thursday, emphasizing the White House's control over the nation's top law enforcement branch that once pursued criminal prosecutions against the president.
The image of Trump in shades of blue is a remarkable addition to the storied Robert F. Kennedy Department of Justice Building, which is occupied by a department that traditionally has made painstaking efforts to separate itself from politics.
Since Trump retook office last year, the Justice Department has faced repeated accusations of targeting the president's perceived enemies on his behalf. Those prosecutions include that of former FBI Director James Comey, New York Attorney General and Letitia James, as well as investigations into Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell and several Democratic representatives who recorded a video urging service members to disobey any illegal orders.
Similar banners of Trump's face have been draped across other federal departments including the Department of Labor and the Department of Agriculture, each with their own text: "American workers first" and "growing America," respectively. ... The new sign at the Justice Department reads "make America safe again," the slogan of the Trump administration's violent crime crackdown.

You immediately noticed, of course, that the Trump banner is positioned above the American flag. Details.

Biden would’ve been instantly impeached in a bipartisan vote if he put his face on the freakin’ Department of Justice building

I thought of!
kinda perfect, if you are into the irony of it all 
He somehow thinks that's a good look for him.
Der Führer was always doing stuff like that - defacing nice buildings with huge ugly banners.
He just LOVES looking at himself, and pissing on everything else with his name. Massive and destructive ego.
