Consequently, federal officials telling pleasant fictions about no one being above the law only serve to highlight the distance between the elites and the people, between stated aspirations and ugly truths.
Who's above the law? How about Hunter Biden, Hillary Clinton and BLM rioters, for starters - Washington Times "Recently, we have had to endure a series of reminders that “no person is above the law” from a batch of folks, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Attorney General Merrick Garland and Republican Rep. Mike Turner of Ohio.
"But that is not really true, is it?
"There are many, many people who are and have been, at least so far, above the law. Here’s a very short list:
• Hunter Biden, and the “big guy,” aka President Biden, assuming he really did profit from whatever Hunter was doing with the communist Chinese, the Ukrainians or the Mexicans.
• The honorable Hillary Clinton.
• The FBI agents who offered whatever wound up being necessary for the FISA court to issue warrants to surveil the Trump campaign in 2016.
• BLM rioters/“mostly peaceful” protesters.
• “Mostly peaceful” pro-abortion protesters, either picketing outside the homes of Supreme Court justices or tossing the occasional firebomb through the windows of a pregnancy center
• The folks who gave you the wholly fabricated Steele dossier.
• The 5 million people who have crossed the southern border in contravention of American law since Mr. Biden became president.
• Everyone in the Bush administration who was absolutely certain and completely wrong about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
• Everyone in the Obama administration involved in the extrajudicial killing of an American citizen (Anwar al-Awlaki).
• Everyone who has committed or is committing crimes that local district attorneys in places like New York City, Philadelphia and Los Angeles don’t feel like prosecuting.
• Medical professionals who perform gender-transition surgery on those too young to give consent.
• The federal government teams at Ruby Ridge or the Branch Davidian ranch near Waco, Texas.
"So, it turns out that quite a few people are above the law.
"Maybe everyone who is busy telling us no one is above the law have other folks in mind."
