If 'No One Is Above The Law,' These Democrats Would Be Arraigned

 The Federalist  . . ."Cue the chorus of Democrats and corporate media mouthpieces who spent all of Thursday night on Twitter condescendingly warning: “no one is above the law, not even the former president.”

"Sen. Elizabeth Warren, the anti-Trump Adams, former Rep. Adam Kinzinger, Rep. Adam Schiff, and even Trump’s ex-attorney Michael Cohen say Trump- or anyone else- doesn’t just get a free pass because he’s a 2024 presidential candidate. Yet, it doesn’t take an expert to know that the sole reason Trump ever faced indictment is because his political enemies requested it.

"In addition to suggesting that Trump is not “above the law,” former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi claimed that the former president has the opportunity to “prove innocence” in court. Of course, the law, smugly touted by Pelosi, dictates that defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty- not the other way around."...Excerpts:

"The same people who love lording “no one is above the law” over Americans are the ones who think they are above any semblance of oversight or law, or constitutionality. If Democrats truly valued rule of law, illegal border crossers, Russia hoaxers, Jeffrey Epstein’s clients, pro-abortion vandals, rioters, and the people who run corrupt government agencies like the Department of Justice, the FBI, the NSA, and the Manhattan DA’s office would be the ones standing in court next week, not Trump"

"In the latest release, thanks to the excellent reporting of independent journalist Matt Taibbi, we see outgoing Chair of the House Intelligence Committee, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), continuously pressuring Twitter to validate his fantasies of “Russian bots” manipulating US politics."

Bragg’s Lawfare Tears Apart A Thousand Years of Anglo-American Jurisprudence

 

Bragg’s Lawfare Tears Apart A Thousand Years of Anglo-American Jurisprudence - American Thinker

...If this power grab isn’t stopped, with everyone involved in the case punished under the law, nothing will stand in the way of the leftist drive for total power.

. . ."Our Constitution was built for a people acting in good faith. Good faith is gone in America, though, with progressive jurists and prosecutors as the worst bad actors. We must return this nation to one of equal justice under the law or, in a decade, this nation will be no more.

"To that end, we must hold progressives liable for violating the law and punish their abuses fairly. No state or federal judges or prosecutors should be able to claim immunity after denying Americans of any political ideology their most basic civil rights. Indeed, such actions threaten to tear apart our nation and should be treated as actionable treason. Such judges and prosecutors should be tried and, if found guilty, severely punished."

‘Underwhelming’: Reactions to Trump’s Arraignment Shows It’s a Nothingburger (legalinsurrection.com)

Justin Amash:  After reading DA Bragg’s indictment of Trump and accompanying statement of facts, I’m stunned any prosecutor would move forward with this. It’s even flimsier than we were led to believe. Thirty-four stacked counts, bootstrapped to an unstated crime, to manufacture felony charges.

Bragg's Case Against Trump Puts Local Prosecutors' Power in the Spotlight (reason.com)   

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has written himself into the history books and future pub trivia questions by becoming the first prosecutor to pursue criminal charges against a former president. Whether his case against Donald Trump is successful or not, Americans nationwide are now seeing the power that local prosecutors wield, sometimes capriciously.

The Woke Movement Is Assassinating MLK All Over Again

  Issues & Insights

"Today we mark the 55th anniversary of the day the murderous James Earl Ray took the life of Martin Luther King Jr. The civil rights leader should be allowed to rest in peace, but he is being slain yet again, this time by a mob of mediocre minds with rock-bottom character that seeks to overturn his life’s works.

"In what is widely acknowledged as his greatest speech, King dreamed that his “four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character,” that “one day right down in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers.”

"King also damned the “dark and desolate valley” and “manacles” of segregation. He identified us all as “God’s children.”

"He couldn’t have been clearer about his vision for a color-blind society. And in the 40 years that followed his death, our country moved in that direction, year by year, heart by heart.

"But much has changed. The woke mob, critical race theory, and the DEI (diversity, equity, inclusion) movement have reopened a once-gaping, raw wound that had almost closed. Consider just a few of the many instances in which our “leaders” and institutional luminaries not only reject King’s teaching but actively try to return this country to an era of segregation and ugly, unapologetic bigotry. 

"We could start just about anywhere, but we begin with ​​Florida International University, a public institution that mirrors the insurgents’ march through our institutions. Its diversity, equity, and inclusion program “condemns the United States as a system of ‘white supremacy,’” and “segregates scholarships and student programs by race,” says author and filmmaker Christopher Rufo.". . .

Republicans lay the groundwork for 2025 indictments; Sadly; not Bill and Hillary

 Don Surber

Delving into the Biden Crime Family does not cause despair among the elitists because they bank on any legal action taking place on their home turf: Washington DC. A prosecutor would have to get a Democrat grand jury to indict and get a Democrat jury to convict.

"The indictment of President Trump was as predictable as snow in Antarctica. The deep state wants to kill him, destroy his family and plow his fields with salt. That would send a message to anyone who dares challenge their authority again.

"Keep calm and carry on. We will right this wrong when a Republican is president. 2023 is not 2020. Republicans now realize the threat was not Trump.

"Democrats believe they may have ended six years of expensive failure, but the indictment drew sharp criticism from Jeff Bezos and his flunkies at the Washington Post.

"In an editorial (remember those?) the Bezosists said, “Donald Trump deserves the legal scrutiny he’s getting — which has come from many corners on many counts. Yet of the long list of alleged violations, the likely charges on which a grand jury in New York state voted to indict him are perhaps the least compelling. There’s cause for concern, and caution, ahead.”

"Democrats have assumed that all they needed was lies to bring down Trump. The two impeachments undermined their credibility. But they look at polls that show majorities believe that he is guilty of something as proof that their strategy worked. Maybe it does, but throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks has left a very messy wall."...

If Trump is bad, Clinton was worse - American Thinker   . . ." But Clinton paid no penalty: he was above the law as applied by shameless Democrats, who now exhibit contempt not just for Trump, but for all Republicans.  In the name of "defending democracy," this grotesque perversion of former liberalism is hyper illiberal, puking on the First Amendment under the guise of throttling "hate speech," while spewing hatred through BLM, Antifa, and a twisted denigration of murdered children, calling instead for "vengeance" on behalf of unhinged transgender miscreants."

Actual REAL WOMAN’s thread on how insulting Dylan Mulvaney is to REAL WOMEN is straight-FIRE –

Satire: Scientists At Budweiser Attempt To Discover How Many Beers It Would Take For Dylan Mulvaney To Pass As A Woman | Babylon Bee

Dr. Morganstein reportedly passed out twenty beers later, still believing Dylan Mulvaney was a man. However, he did note that his female colleagues were at least three points more attractive.

 Twitchy.com  "Dylan Mulvaney is clearly playing a ‘part’. And it’s not a great part at that. For some reason, Dylan seems to think women run around giggling about how stupid they are, fluttering their eyelashes and talking like they’re a 12-year-old girl in junior high. He is one of the most embarrassing, lazy caricatures of a woman we have ever seen … and the fact so many large brands are using HIM as some sort of spokesman while men pretend to be women taking over sports and spaces, we can’t even really put into words how insulting it all is.

"Thankfully, Laura aka @fancythis was able to do just that:...

in light of all this recent attention on dylan mulvaney, i’ve been trying to come up with a way to articulate how it makes me feel as a woman. like, you know, a REAL one.

there’s anger, of course, indignation, frustration, confusion, and all those sorts of emotions.

Travis Tritt boycotts Anheuser-Busch amid Dylan Mulvaney campaign (nypost.com)

Daily Mail Online

. . ."Country music star Travis Tritt announced a boycott of all products by Anheuser-Busch – joining Kid Rock in protesting its beer giant Bud Light for teaming up with trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney.

“A great American company that later sold out to the Europeans and became unrecognizable to the American consumer. Such a shame,” he continued.

"Tritt added in a follow-up post that “other artists who are deleting Anheuser-Busch products from their hospitality rider might not say so in public for fear of being ridiculed and canceled.. . .

“ 'I have no such fear,” he wrote.

"He also responded to a user who asked for a “list of all related Bud products” by posting the logos of some 30 beer brands including Budweiser, Beck’s, Busch, Corona, Michelob Light, and Stella Artois.". . .

Sadly the article in the post refers to Mulvaney in feminine terms: "she", "her", etc.

Reparations on the Horizon in California -

 Should one make the check out directly to Maxine Waters?

Intellectual Takeout

"Growing up in the 90s, the prospect of reparations seemed unlikely. I was aware that a subset of the population supported payments to the descendants of slaves, but back then, it seemed as if most people, regardless of how they felt toward such a policy, didn’t believe it would ever actually be implemented. It just wasn’t in the cards—or so we thought.

"Times have changed. Thanks to the woke left, reparations are rapidly gaining salience. While such a proposal faces massive hurdles at the national level, it is already a reality in some blue states.

"California provides one of the more noteworthy examples of a state pushing forward with reparations. Thanks to assembly bill 3121, which was enacted in September 2020, California has a special task force charged with “studying the institution of slavery and its lingering negative effects on living African Americans.” The task force was also tasked with recommending “appropriate remedies of compensation, rehabilitation, and restitution for African Americans.”. . .

Which of those attackers does Reginald Denny owe money to? Or is it all of them? Will Maxine Waters see that Denny's reparations are equally distributed?

Judge Warns Trump To Refrain From Posting On Social Media, Claiming Messages Could Inflame Civil Unrest – Trump Posts Anyway

 The Daily Wire

"New York Supreme Court Judge Juan Merchan, who is poised to preside over the historic alleged hush-money prosecution of former President Donald Trump, warned Trump to refrain from posting on social media, as it could foment civil unrest.

Trump posted on his Truth Social account anyway.

“ 'Alvin Bragg shut down New York City, brought in 38,000 NYPD officers, and will spend an estimated $200,000,000 of NYC funds, for a totally legal $130,000 NDA. On top of all that, the 9th Circuit Court just awarded me $122,000 — over the $500,000 already awarded, from Stormy ‘Horseface’ Daniels!” the former president wrote on social media.". . .

"Many critics have characterized the case as politically motivated since Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has garnered a reputation for being soft on crime concerning violent offenses.". . .

Chicago chooses chaos over recovery –

  HotAir

We get the government we deserve.

"I’d really like to say I was surprised by the outcome of the Chicago mayoral race last night but it was probably inevitable. The residents of the Windy City were offered a choice between someone who wanted to rebuild the Chicago PD and bring down the crime rates and someone who was on the record saying he wanted to defund the police. By the slimmest of margins, a bare majority of voters decided to stick with the carjacking epidemic because it’s been working out so well thus far, I suppose. “Progressive” candidate Brandon Johnson bested pro-cop Paul Vallas with a 51.4 to 48.6 margin. (The official vote count is embedded at the bottom of this article.) So don’t look for any major changes coming to the landscape of Chicago anytime soon. (Fox News)

The Windy City decided on its new mayor Tuesday after a tight race between two blues, with a progressive, Bernie Sanders-endorsed Democrat taking the keys to the Chicago mayor’s office.

Progressive Cook County Commissioner Brandon Johnson defeated his moderate opponent, former Chicago Public Schools CEO Paul Vallas, to take the Chicago mayor’s race, replacing outgoing Mayor Lori Lightfoot, who came in third before the runoff.

Vallas garnered the support of the Chicago police union and major business groups while Johnson got the backing of Chicago’s teacher’s union.

. . . "Under Mayor Lori Lightfoot, conditions in Chicago have deteriorated. The city’s residents were offered a chance to turn things around, assuming that’s still possible. The choice was rather stark. Paul Vallas had been endorsed by the Chicago Police Union while Brandon Johnson had the endorsement of the teachers union. (That really sums up the race in a nutshell.) But despite most polls showing that crime was the number one concern on the minds of voters, the “defund the police” guy wound up winning.". . .

California can't get rid of a  silly governor either.

Bill Maher acknowledges important point about guns

  Bearing Arms

"Like the old saying guns, God created all men. Sam Colt made them equal."

"I like Bill Maher.

"I don’t agree with him on a lot of stuff, but he’s anything but a political windsock. His positions today aren’t that different than they were 10 years ago and that’s something I deeply respect. He’s also pretty funny about it, which I like.

"But Maher has never exactly been pro-gun. We’ve talked about some of his comments in the past. But he’s also shown a remarkable amount of realism on the subject as well. He’s not pro-gun, but he can poke at the bad arguments.

"All of this is why the recent comments he made on his show are so interesting.

Bill Maher conceded that guns are a clear “leveler” for women to defend themselves while discussing them with Virginia Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears during Friday’s episode of “Real Time with Bill Maher.”

Maher brought up the topic by addressing Tennessee Rep. Andy Ogles and his family posing with guns for their Christmas photo in the wake of a deadly shooting in Nashville.

…

Maher admitted, “It makes sense because guns are a leveler. You know, if you don’t have guns, then the person who is physically stronger is always going to win.”

Though Maher has previously mocked Americans’ obsession with guns, he has also chastised liberals for pushing gun control as an issue without understanding gun owners.

“I mean, I do not like guns. I have guns. I do not like them. I always compare them to antibiotics. I never want to take one, but I’m glad they exist because I’m as small as some women,” Maher joked.'. . .

The United States has lost the moral high ground

So far in history, this disgraceful tactic was restricted to third-world totalitarian regimes only.

 American Thinker  "Yesterday was doubtlessly among the darkest days in the history of the nation.  It was the day that the inglorious tradition of using government agencies to target political opponents achieved another ignominious low in the United States of America.

"President Donald Trump was formally processed and arraigned in a Manhattan courthouse on 34 charges related to allegedly ‘hush payments' to former porn actor Stormy Daniels and another woman during the 2016 presidential campaign.". . .

A silly President and his cartoonish administration teams up with state District Attorneys - who all appear to come from third-world banana republics - to produce a failed nation. TD

Wednesday Schadenfreude: 'The View' puts out table coasters to counter the audience perception that they can't stop farting

 American Thinker  . . ."Sure, it could be the orientation of the audience they're courting. Perhaps it's the other television they watch that informs their inclinations: Honey Boo Boo's mom, after all, used to let 'em rip quite successfully on reality T.V.

"But more likely, it's the low quality of the show's discourse. Might it be the let-it-all-hang-out ethos promoted on The View, not just by Whoopi, but Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, and the rest of that cackling coven of haters that makes the audience think of flatulence? Might it be the trash talk, the bottom-of-the-barrel, fact-free speculations on politics? The View is all about smearing Republicans, spewing Holocaust denial, abusing the one Republican they usually have, and defending the indefensible on the left side. It's the most intellectually bereft show on television, seemingly designed to create low-information voters. 

"People who can shout their abortions shouldn't have any complaints about the public associating them with flatulence.

"In fact, if they had any self-awareness, they should embrace it.". . .
