A Dinner That Changed Everything

The invitation seemed routine enough-dinner at the White House. But when I arrived at the residence's Green Room expecting a group gathering, I found myself alone with Donald Trump. What unfolded wasn't a casual meal between president and FBI Director. It was an audition for something far more troubling. "I need loyalty. I expect loyalty," he said, his eyes fixed on mine. In that moment, the careful distance between presidential power and independent justice-a boundary respected by every modern president-began to crumble. This wasn't about policy or national security. It was about personal allegiance, about bending an institution designed to serve truth toward serving a man. My silence spoke volumes. Because in the Department of Justice, your loyalty isn't to any person, no matter how powerful. It's to something far more enduring: justice itself.
