Trump indicted versus Biden coverup — 24 Comments

  1. An indictment may or may not lead to a conviction. Clearly the purpose is to at the least derail Trump’s chances of reelection.
    But if the Trump mania results in his conviction and imprisonment, the consequential repercussions will be severe. As no citizen is safe from political persecution when the rule of law has been weaponized to this extent. What basis will remain for allegiance to a system that has lost all legitimacy?

    “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.”

    Of course, powers willing to politically weaponize the rule of law never voluntarily give up control. History has repeatedly demonstrated that whatever degree of armed force is necessary will be used to retain their powers.

  2. Depressing. 🙁

    No matter one’s feelings about Trump, if you believe in equal justice and the presumption of innocence, we must stand firm against this criminalizing of political opponents.

    Write or call your representatives and let them know. Speak out loud and proud against this persecution. This is the Rubicon. If they can railroad Trump, what chance does Joe Sixpack stand?

  3. We are no longer a Third World Dictatorship. Not even a Banana Republic. We are the diseased country.

  4. Hmm, a different song came to mind for me.
    ELP Karn Evil 9: 1st Impression, Pt. 2
    “ Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends
    We’re so glad you could attend, come inside, come inside
    There behind a glass stands a real blade of grass
    Be careful as you pass, move along, move along

    Come inside, the show’s about to start
    Guaranteed to blow your head apart
    Rest assured you’ll get your money’s worth
    Greatest show in Heaven, Hell or Earth
    You’ve got to see the show, it’s a dynamo
    You’ve got to see the show, it’s rock and roll, oh

    Right before your eyes we pull laughter from the skies
    And he laughs until he cries, then he dies, then he dies

    Come inside, the show’s about to start
    Guaranteed to blow your head apart
    You’ve got to see the show, it’s a dynamo
    You’ve got to see the show, it’s rock and roll, oh

    Soon the Gypsy Queen in a glaze of vaseline
    Will perform on guillotine, what a scene, what a scene
    Next upon the stand will you please extend a hand
    To Alexander’s Ragtime Band, Dixieland, Dixieland

    Roll up, roll up, roll up
    See the show

    Performing on a stool we’ve a sight to make you drool
    Seven virgins and a mule, keep it cool, keep it cool
    We would like it to be known the exhibits that were shown
    Were exclusively our own, all our own, all our own

    Come and see the show, come and see the show
    Come and see the show
    See the show”

  5. GB asks the question of the moment:
    “What basis will remain for allegiance to a system that has lost all legitimacy?”

    ‘Bread & circuses’ is all I got, but that all could soon run out of juice too.

  6. The House will impeach Biden for the payoffs, the bribes unearthed by documents and the FIB whistle blower.

    New debate. WHEN DID THE BIDEN BANANA REPUBLIC COMMENCE?

    WAS it last August and his vivid stint as a little Hitler in Philadelphia? Or June 8th?
    Or was it the election of 2020?

    The needful time for bloodshed is drawing ever closer.

  7. I would say 2021 with the delta house charade, ratified the steal

  8. The Biden thing looks like a failure to adequately investigate. It’s as fishy as the day is long, but the comparison is going to suffer a bit because the facts about Trump’s antics are going to come out sooner rather than later. I suspect it will be decades before we know what Biden has been up to.

    Hillary is a better precedent. I can’t see a meaningful difference between Hillary’s behavior and Trump’s, right down to the fact that both were/are running for president during the investigation. And yet the DOJ (FBI?) bent over backwards to avoid prosecuting Hillary. They appear to have thrown the book at Trump.

    You can prosecute both Hillary and Trump. Or, you can conclude that “no reasonable prosecutor” would indict either under the circumstaces. But you cannot prosecute Trump after failing to prosecute Hillary. I’m sorry.

  9. I suspect it will be decades before we know what Biden has been up to.

    I guess it depends on what you mean by “know”. For many years now there’s been a lot of information out in the wild about the Biden family’s criminal activity. A large portion of that has come from various emails Hunter’s lap top, but that’s hardly the only source. For example, the most recent revelations regarding the 5 million dollar 2015 Burisma bribe comes from an (probably FBI) whistleblower citing an FD-1023 form.

    So we “know” about a lot of this stuff in the unofficial sense via leaks from whistleblowers and the laptop info, but we don’t “know” in the more qualified official sense since the current FBI and/or Justice Department haven’t conducted a proper investigation, nor will they ever as long as the current regime is in power of course. And of course it’s pretty much a certainty that even what we currently “know” is just the tip of a rather large iceberg.

  10. Neo, I’m glad you had a break from this political sewer we are finding ourselves immersed in.

    There is a growing appetite for rebelliousness, and I hope it will not manifest as violence, but as a resolution to end the rule of Democrats.

    That being said, it is clear that the Biden administration is recklessly attempting to incite violence, or at least construct an edifice that pretends it is an imminent reality. Hopefully their efforts will backfire, and instead build in Americans a rock wall of determination for change.

    Should Democrat fraud succeed in thwarting that growing determination, then all bets really are off. That’s why I keep asserting that “This is the hill, right here!”

  11. This also explains the enthusiasm of the ruling class for large scale 3rd world immigration. People from those places see bribery, corruption, persecution of your political opponents, and mob violence as ho-hum, everyday occurrences. Our political class is envious of the impunity with which the rulers of those places operate.

  12. “Virtually everyone on the right has known for quite some time that our system of justice has become wholly political.”

    Change that — everyone on both the right and the left has known. It’s just that Democrat voters love it, applaud it and celebrate it.

  13. WHEN DID THE BIDEN BANANA REPUBLIC COMMENCE?

    His first day in office when he signed all those executive orders. It signaled that his administration would place ideology over the good of the people.

    In effect, he was saying to hell with your jobs and livelihoods and your quaint taboos and the rule of law and your insistence on merit.

  14. “Where’s the money?”
    Saaries from a US Senator and a community college professor do not add up to a second beach house in Rehobeth.

  15. The Biden thing looks like a failure to adequately investigate. It’s as fishy as the day is long, but the comparison is going to suffer a bit because the facts about Trump’s antics are going to come out sooner rather than later. I suspect it will be decades before we know what Biden has been up to.

    The National Archives played a role in this.

    The NARA refused to assist in the collection of the Trump records for national archive holding and review, and then the NARA triggered a sequence of events that led to the DOJ using a reference from the NARA, to weaponize a process they refused to engage in. The NARA refused to do their specialized bureaucratic job, and then the NARA used what they defined as an incomplete job as a reason to refer the outcome to the DOJ. The details are quite interesting.

    The letter details how the DOJ-NSD then weaponized the process, fought with the FBI investigative and supervisory agents who were saying Trump was doing nothing wrong, and then culminating in a documented lie to the Florida magistrate, in order to get a politically motivated search warrant.

    The last four administrations had temporary storage arranged for records by NARA. Trump did not.

  16. It’s just that Democrat voters love it, applaud it and celebrate it.

    Yes because unfortunately they don’t get what the point of what happened in Animal Farm to Boxer. (Or more probably they think they’re one of the pigs but they’re really boxer.)

  17. I’ve loved the Paul Simon song for years. It owes a lot to JS Bach.

    The song fit the mood and malaise of the Seventies, and it fits the present era as well. The difference is that back then, a generation that had great belief in the country was disappointed and disillusioned. Today, things are worse, but most people aren’t paying attention. The media that told Americans to be shocked and disgusted fifty years ago tells them not to worry now: Trump is the enemy and so long as he’s kept out of office everything is fine.

  18. I certainly don’t think America is dead, Washington is not America. I know there is a lot of talk about a civil war, but I pray that it will not happen. It won’t be like the first one, it will be like the Spanish Civil War. With many, many factions fighting. It will be very, very bad. I do prefer “Irish Democracy”.
    All that I’ve read from the people who espouse violence, it will be an asymmetric fight. Which means that it will, once again, be horrific.

  19. My melancholy earlier this year prompted me to learn how to play and sing Mr. Simons song. It truly does fit the current circumstances, although I suspect it was other things that inspired Paul to write it. I wonder what, if anything, he thinks about what is now happening to our country.
