    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    In an interview that aired Thursday night on Univision, former president Donald Trump indicated that if he’s elected in 2024, he may use the federal government to punish his critics and he defended his administration’s separation of migrant families at the U.S.-Mexico border.

    Trump faces 91 combined federal and state charges over alleged election interference, the mishandling of classified documents and falsifying business records.

    To facilitate Trump’s ability to direct Justice Department actions, his associates have drafted plans to dispense with 50 years of policy and practice intended to shield criminal prosecutions from political considerations.

    Dozens of lawsuits have been filed against the federal government seeking damages for allegedly intentionally inflicting emotional distress on migrant families as a result of the separation policy.

    And Trump’s appearance on Univision — a leading Hispanic media company in the United States with which he has a thorny history — comes a day after the former president counterprogrammed a Republican presidential debate in Miami with a rally in Hialeah.

    Acevedo’s sit-down marks the first time Trump has participated in such an interview with Univision, which completed a merger with Mexican broadcaster Televisa last year, since he removed anchor Jorge Ramos from a news conference on the campaign trail in 2015.
