If I Were Judge Juan Merchan…

As former attorney Michael Cohen gets set for a second day of testimony in Donald Trump’s criminal trial in New York, there are things happening that I find to be rather astounding. Now, we can all agree that this “lawfare” is having some rather dire consequences, but not for Trump himself. There was a poll that came out yesterday that showed the former president is leading the current president by rather wide margins in five of the six “battleground states”. Only Wisconsin is slightly favoring Joe Biden, and that’s within the margin of error at 2 points.

So, what does this tell you? To me it shows that Trump’s trial is having the opposite effect that Alvin Bragg and Judge Juan Merchan wanted to have. Instead of getting Americans to switch to Biden, they are leaving Biden in droves and moving to Trump. In fact, Trump held a rally in very blue New Jersey over this past weekend, and between 80,000 and 100,000 people showed up. We’re talking Taylor Swift type of crowds here.

In fairness to the sitting New York Judge Merchan, I thought today I’d be nice and try and help out his career a little. Judge, here’s what you need to do:

  1. Stop sustaining all of the Trump legal team’s objections. It’s not working. It only makes you look like a fool. You’re not fooling anyone with your bias. Everyone and their cousin knows you and Alvin Bragg are in cahoots on this trial.
  2. Lift Trump’s gag order. You didn’t include anyone in the prosecution in the gag order, which usually tells BOTH sides to keep quiet. You showed your conflict of interest right then and there.
  3. When the prosecution rests, which I hear should be sometime this week, the Trump team will ask for a directed verdict of not-guilty. Not only has Bragg’s team failed to prove Trump is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, they haven’t even been able to define what the felony is. Not to the jury. Not to the media. Not to Trump. Not even to Merchan himself. So, stop playing games and call this thing over before it becomes a landslide in Trump’s favor.

If Juan Merchan were smart, he’d end the charade before it really gets bad. Already, Alvin Bragg is going to be facing a tough reelection bid because he’s wasted tons of taxpayer money on bogus charges that never should have been brought. We’re talking about stuff that happened almost two decades ago, and the statute of limitations has already run out. Merchan can’t be so big of an idiot to not realize that he’s going to lose all of this on so many points of appeal that the Appellate Court could be blind, deaf, and mute, and still overturn any guilty verdict.

And that’s just what happens IF the jury comes back with a guilty verdict. I never thought I’d say this, but as bad as this trial has been for the prosecution, I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if the jury comes back and acquits Trump on all charges. Hell, we don’t even know the charges yet!

Juan Merchan can save whatever is left of his career if he wraps this thing up, and dismisses the charges as soon as he possibly can. He probably should have done that after the Stormy Daniels testimony, but he blew it. Regardless, he still has a chance to save his career, otherwise he’s going to be going down in flames along side Bragg and Letitia James as laughing stocks in the Empire State!

Isn’t What’s Good For The Goose…?

Look, I’m a consistency guy. Basically that means that if you’re going to come out in favor of something because it benefits your side of an argument, that’s fine. But when the same issue comes out and it doesn’t benefit your side of the argument, you need to accept the fact you’re going to lose on that one. You can’t be wishy-washy and sway in the wind. Too many politicians are like that in this day and age. Remember back when the whole same-sex marriage thing was swirling around? Bill and Hillary Clinton were in the White House. They said they were against same-sex marriage, but were for same-sex unions. It wasn’t too long after the gay mafia caught up to them and they decided that maybe they were indeed in favor of same-sex marriage. As they put it, “they are evolving.” Right.

Well, what’s good for the goose, is good for the gander. And this time around it has nothing to do with same-sex marriage. It has to do with bribery charges.

Fox News came out with a story that alleged Hunter Biden had taken bribes in order to advance a foreign country’s agenda. The source of the bribe leak to Fox apparently was a guy by the name of Alexander Smirnov. And now the White House wants Fox to retract it’s story and apologize. Why? Because Alexander Smirnov was indicted for lying.

Uh…can we wait just one cotton-pickin’ minute here?

Today in New York City, at Donald Trump’s trial over his paying “hush money” to Stormy Daniels (not a crime by the way), taking the stand will be one former attorney for Trump, a guy by the name of Michael Cohen. Now, Michael Cohen has not only been indicted for lying. He’s been convicted of it. He’s served time for lying to Congress among other charges. He was put away for three years, right? And the funny thing is, we haven’t heard word one about this from the White House. They want Fox News to retract a story because they are using a liar as a source, yet they are OK with Alvin Bragg and Juan Merchan having Michael Cohen, a CONVICTED liar that has served time for it, on the stand against Trump? And this guy is supposed to be the star witness in the whole circus? Really?

Am I the only one that sees the irony in this? If Fox News can’t use a liar as a source in a story regarding the president’s son, then why in the world can the prosecution use a convicted and pathological liar on a witness stand, under oath, to give testimony regarding Trump’s alleged payments to Stormy Daniels? Seems to me they are one and the same thing.

No, Fox News shouldn’t be retracting their story. In fact, they probably should be expanding on it. Especially if later today (I’m writing this rather early this morning), Cohen does end up taking the stand as a witness.

What’s good for the goose, is good for the gander.

And with that,

Carry on world…you’re dismissed!

Should Presidents Get Immunity?

It was less than two weeks ago, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments that Donald Trump (and presidents in general) should receive immunity from criminal prosecution for acts they have committed while in office. Now, the high court won’t rule on this until most likely the end of June so we’ve got about another couple of months before we hear the outcome. But there are some interesting points that Trump’s legal team makes.

First of all, presidents are immune already from civil prosecution for acts committed while in office. That ruling came down about 40 years ago, right after Richard Nixon resigned over the Watergate affair. But no one has tried to get that immunity expanded to criminal prosecution until now. And the only reason it’s before the high court now is because of the lawfare that we’ve been witnessing in New York, Georgia, and with Jack Smith, and the January 6th fiasco, as well as the Mar a Lago classified documents case.

I’m going to refer to a couple of things I’ve talked about for quite some time. The first is the Harry Reid Rule (or that’s what I call it). It was when Harry Reid was Majority Leader in the Senate and passed a rule that appointees other than Supreme Court Justices needed a simple majority, not 60 votes to get appointed to whatever position they were up for. It backfired on Reid because when Mitch McConnell took over as Majority Leader, he expanded it to include the SCOTUS nominees. And that’s what led to the 6-3 conservative court we have today.

The second thing that is going to come back to bite Democrats is what Chuck Schumer did in the Alejandro Mayorkas impeachment. He basically made a motion that the impeachment was unconstitutional, and it passed along party lines. What this basically means is that if there is an impeachment dealing with the out of power party in the Senate, the party in power can simply state that the charges are unconstitutional, and kill the impeachment without a trial. And while you know I’m not a fan of impeachment unless you’ve got enough votes to not only impeach in the House, but convict in the Senate, this was a really stupid move on Schumer’s part. It will come back to bite the Democrats as soon as the Republicans lose the House and take over the Senate. Wait and see.

Well, in this case, with presidential immunity on the line, what happens if a president is worried that he’s going to be charged with a crime if he makes the wrong decision. Does that top him making the right decision because of his fear of getting charged and prosecuted? Take the case of Bobo Obama, who ordered a drone strike in the Middle East and took out a 16 year old American citizen, who just happened to be a member of ISIS. Could Obama, without immunity, still today be charged with that boy’s murder? After all, there is no statute of limitations on murder.

And what about Joe Biden, and the problems he’s got with the whole Hunter Biden fiasco? Could he be criminally charged with accepting bribes from Ukraine, Romania, and China in exchange for favorable outcomes to those countries while he was Vice President or even President? Presidents, of both parties, need to have the ability to make tough decisions without the fear of being called on the carpet for it later on. Now, that’s not to say that a sitting president has carte blanche to go after anyone they choose anyway they choose. There has to be some sort of litmus test. But that could very well be decided by the lower courts. I doubt the Supremes are going to get that involved in it. But I certainly can see them sending this back down the line and having the lower courts come up with what circumstances would need to exist before a president could invoke immunity on a criminal charge.

And for Donald Trump, that would mean victory. That would mean that there would be no way to hold this trial prior to election day. It would take months at the very least for a lower court to gather the information, hold hearings, and decide what constitutes immunity and what doesn’t.

And if that happens, Donald Trump could very well have skated on all four of his trials on his way to reelection.

Carry on world…you’re dismissed!

Well…Lawfare Didn’t Work!

If you’re a Democrat trying to keep Donald Trump out of office, what all can you do? Nothing the Dems have tried, dating back to 2016 when he got elected has worked. Oh, they tried the Russian Collusion hoax. That basically backfired. Remember the Mueller Report? And then it was learned that it was Hillary Clinton’s gang that paid for that Christopher Steele dossier that was nothing more than a fairy tale? That didn’t go very well.

Then you’ve got the whole impeachment thing in 2019. That was a bust. And let’s not forget the impeachment in 2021, AFTER Trump left office. That was over the whole January 6th Capitol riot thing. But the interesting thing there is, they weren’t trying to remove Trump from office. He’d already left. They were trying to make it so he couldn’t run for reelection up the road. And again, that ended badly.

After Trump left office, you had a bevy of socialist prosecutors and Attorneys General that were trying to legally force Trump out of the 2024 race. You had Alvin Bragg trying to say that paying off a porn star was a state crime, when in fact it was turned down by the Department of Justice for prosecution because they didn’t see it as a crime. Then you had the whole Georgia election interference thing, where Fani Willis decided she had the goods on Trump.

But wait, there’s more. You’ve got Jack Smith. Remember the raid on Mar a Lago? That basically has gone south since Robert Hur’s report has come out saying that Joe Biden yes, he committed a crime, but we’d never be able to get a conviction on a doddering, incompetent man who doesn’t realize where he is or what he’s doing half the time. Even though Biden’s mis-deeds with classified documents were done before he was president. He was Vice President, and even just a Senator when he took those classified docs. Trump at the very least can argue that he was taking documents (which is legal) for his memoirs and presidential library. And let’s not forget that the only real difference between Trump and Biden in this case is that Trump could be charged with obstruction of justice. And while you can get nailed with a 30 year jail term for it, typically it’s fines and a misdemeanor.

And then you’ve got the whole January 6th thing. This is another Jack Smith boondoggle. And this one says that Trump caused the whole January 6th thing with his speech and his actions while in office. That’s a stretch to be sure. First of all, Trump is fighting that and it’s in front of the Supreme Court right now whether or not he can be charged with something he did while he’s in office. If the high court doesn’t back him on this, and Biden loses? Well, there could be consequences for him up the road as well. But in the meantime, there have been two whistleblowers that have come forward to testify saying that Trump did nothing wrong and tried to calm down the rioters, not promote them storming the Capitol.

And now we see that Letitia James won’t be able to slap a padlock on Trump Tower, and may not even be able to finish up the case as it most likely will get thrown out of court. The bond was already lowered from $464 million to $175 million, still a huge sum. But when Trump was asked how he was going to pay for it, he replied, “In cash”. I’d love to see him pay for it in pennies!

Fani Willis’ case in Georgia is going to continue with her involved, after Nathan Wade, himself no more than an ambulance chaser, had to quit due to his romance with Willis. But six of the charges have already been thrown out because they were improperly filed. That tells me that Willis really doesn’t understand how to be a District Attorney, much less how to do it right.

Isn’t it interesting that at every turn, Democrats’ attempt to stop Trump or hurt him has only helped? Why don’t they try something rather novel? Let’s have a regular old election, and elect the best candidate running? What do they have to be afraid of? Oh…I see…Joe Biden!

Carry on world…you’re dismissed!

YOU’RE Sorry???

My head exploded when I heard this. And I’m sure yours probably did too. Remember back at the State of the Union address? Remember when Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) heckled Joe Biden during a speech, and demanded that he “SAY HER NAME!”? And he held up a button that he had in memory of Laken Riley, and called her “Lincoln Riley”. And he mentioned at that time that she was killed by an “illegal”?

Boy did he catch hell on that one!

But rather than apologize to her parents for butchering her name from the podium, he decided he was going to apologize to Jose Antonio Ibarra, the guy that allegedly murdered Laken while she was taking a jog.

Huh?

At that moment, I became headless. It just exploded. He has never apologized to the parents and family of Laken. He never has admitted it was HIS policies that allowed Ibarra to be in this country illegally. He never brought up the fact that it was a socialist, George Soros-backed District Attorney that allowed Ibarra parole for several crimes. He fled New York for Georgia after getting parole. But Biden never took any responsibility for that, did he?

And what did he apologize to a serial criminal for? For calling him an “illegal”. Everybody from MSNBC to CNN to the New York Times and Washington Post, to Nancy Pelosi said he should have been called “undocumented”, not “illegal”.

But Biden had it right the day after the speech when he was asked about it and said, “Well, technically, he is here illegally”. And technically, Joe Biden is complicit in Riley’s murder for allowing him to be here without proper vetting.

So, with all of that being said, let’s get one thing clear. I understand the Democrats love to redefine words to fit whatever narrative they are pushing at the moment. But this guy not only entered the country illegally, he had a fake green card. He IS an illegal. Forget calling him anything else. He deserves to be in jail for the rest of his life. But unfortunately, that’s just half of the problem here.

The other half of the problem is that we have a president that refuses to take any responsibility for signing 90 Executive Orders on his first day in the White House that did away with “Stay In Mexico” and allowed these types of people to be released onto our streets without any background checks what-so-ever. Joe Biden needs to apologize all right. He needs to apologize to Laken Riley’s family. He needs to apologize to every single person who has lost a loved one because of illegals that are running roughshod on our streets. He needs to apologize to the American people for making some of the most bone-headed decisions in American politics. He needs to come clean that he is NOT a very capable president. He is NOT mentally and physically fit for the office, and should step down immediately.

Forget all of the scandals surrounding Joe Biden and his family. We can deal with that later. He needs to go. He needs to step down as a candidate for the good of the country. He has put this country on the path of ruin and we are going to need at least a decade of decent leadership to bounce back from that, if we ever can.

With that said,

Carry on world…you’re dismissed!

Is It Just Me?

Maybe it’s gotten to the point where I just can’t trust what the federal government says any longer. Maybe it’s that I’ve become jaded because of false narratives like a Russian Hoax, or the NSA going after private citizens and monitoring our cell phone calls. Or maybe there is actually something to it, and I’m just being too pig-headed to see it.

I’m not sure I’m buying what the FBI is trying to sell.

This past week, the FBI announced they have arrested Alexander Smirnov, a former FBI informant, for lying about Hunter and Joe Biden receiving $5 million each in a bribery scandal that involved the company Hunter formerly sat on the board of directors for, Burisma.

Smirnov was picked up at the Las Vegas Airport by the FBI and is being kept in custody fearing that he could flee if released. Apparently, it’s alleged by the FBI that “officials associated with Russian intelligence were involved in passing a story” about the president’s son, Hunter Biden. They said Smirnov’s contacts with Russian officials were recent and extensive, and said Smirnov had planned to meet with one official during an upcoming overseas trip, according to Fox News.

Isn’t it convenient that the one guy in the whole world that has come forth and has tied an actual bribe to Biden Inc. gets arrested by the FBI for lying about it? Does that seem odd to anyone else, or is it just me?

I guess I’ve become so disillusioned by the lies that come out of Washington DC lately, that I can’t believe much of anything I hear. There’s the president telling me that “the economy’s working!” as he whispers it into a microphone. There’s Jamie Rankin (D-MD), who is probably other than Adam Schiff (D-CA) one of the most lying and deceitful Congressmen we’ve got on the Hill. And then you have Alejandro Mayorkas, who until recently, said that the southern border was secure and it was closed. Uh huh. So, tell me how over 2.4 million illegals have crossed the border in 2023? And while we’re on the subject, can you tell me why it is that Joe Biden has been fighting with Texas to take down that razor wire, when that seems to have stemmed the tide of illegals crossing the Rio Grande to invade our country? Now, they just come west to Arizona, and California. In fact, now Jacumba, California is the new hotspot for illegals. They are hiking up and over a mountain that has no fence, and when they get over to the United States side, there are no Border Patrol folks waiting for them. They just wait until the Border Patrol shows up on regular patrol.

We’ve seen our judicial system hijacked by a bunch of liberal thugs funded into office by George Soros, who’s only job seems to be protecting the criminals while they figure out ways to prosecute Donald Trump with outlandish charges that would be laughed out of any normal court in the country. I mean, can you seriously tell me that this Arthur Engoron was unbiased and was only focused on the law? If he was, why did he declare Trump guilty of fraud before the trial even started? That is a kangaroo court I’d expect to find in Russia, China, or Venezuela. What is this guy doing walking around free, much less handing down judicial decisions?

So, knowing that the FBI has lied in the past, knowing that they have been weaponized along with the Department of Justice, Homeland Security, and the whole Biden administration, can I be excused when I’m not buying the story that Smirnov actually lied? Maybe it’s just me, and I don’t know Smirnov from a hole in the ground, but why is it that I trust what he says more than I trust what our own FBI says?

Methinks, and again, it’s only my opinion, that it’s time to take the country back. I’m not smart enough to figure out what that looks like, but I can tell you it doesn’t look anything like what we’ve got going on now. Maybe, just maybe Thomas Jefferson was right all along!

It’s Official: Biden Presidency Is A Failure

As if we needed a poll to tell us that? Yup, but you can now say that it’s official. The folks at Rasmussen asked the question to almost 900 people. 58% said that they felt Biden’s presidency was a failure, and 40% felt it was a “total failure”. That compares with 40% that felt his presidency has been a success including 9% that felt it was a “total success”.

Meanwhile, and I don’t have the official numbers for it, but Rasmussen asked the same thing of Donald Trump, and said a “majority” of voters in the poll said that Trump’s presidency had been a success.

Now the question I have is a very simple one. If an overwhelming majority of people feel that Biden’s presidency has been a failure, and an overwhelming majority of people feel that Trump’s four years in office was a success, why is the race anywhere between three and seven percent? Shouldn’t this be a dead-nuts lock? I mean, you’ve got 98% of the people out there that feel one way or another about Biden. And a majority feel totally different about Trump. Trump leads in pretty much every single category of “which would do better”, except abortion (Biden leads by 4 points there), and LGBTQ (Biden leads that by 7 points). Neither are real walkaways in either of those two instances for Joe Biden.

It would appear on paper anyway, that this isn’t even going to be a close election. At the very least if Trump isn’t convicted by an impartial jury. And since most Americans feel that Trump is getting railroaded and that these trials are all politically motivated to keep him from winning the White House again, I’m wondering why this election is as close as it is. Now, I get it that if he’s convicted of criminal charges, he is going to lose a bunch of votes. But those would have to be from the people least likely to vote for him anyway.

My hunch here is simple. Unless there is something that happens over the next nine months, and there very easily could in our society today, I can’t see how at this point, Donald Trump would lose anything!

This poll from Rasmussen just adds fuel to the fire that Biden’s world seems to be collapsing all around him. He’s got his minions in the White House who back him, but even they are starting to sound like they’re getting tired of making up stories about him to pump him up. He’s not out campaigning, he’s letting others do that for him. And can someone PLEASE tell Karine Jean-Pierre that she’s a waste of oxygen and needs to be replaced by John Kirby as Press Secretary? But that’s a topic for a whole other blog.

What We’ve Learned From Trump’s Trials…So Far

It’s becoming abundantly clear to anyone that has been paying a modicum of attention to the trials and tribulations of one Donald J. Trump, that justice isn’t blind. In fact, I think it’s pretty fair to say that justice is very focused on politics. And we’ve got a two-tiered system of it in this country.

Let’s take a look at the trials that Trump has been going through.

First off, you’ve got the New York trial of Alvin Bragg, who’s about as political as Letitia James, the state’s Attorney General. Bragg has tried to cobble together a charge against Trump that basically says he paid off porn star, Stormy Daniels with his campaign contributions, and that while that’s really an election violation if indeed it is true, it’s the best Bragg can come up with. Bragg, by the way, is the guy that wants to charge a former Marine with murder after the guy stopped a subway thug from causing harm to a subway car full of people. The guy is a hero, and is being treated like a common criminal. So much for this guy. He’s a waste of oxygen and carbon. Everyone that understands the meaning of the word “law” has said this is the weakest case on Trump, and will certainly convict him, but will be overturned.

Next off, you’ve got Letitia James, who campaigned for the office of Attorney General in New York on the fact that she was going to go after Donald Trump. And she lived up to her campaign promise. Now, you need to understand that this has nothing to do with the law. It has everything to do with politics, and a visceral hatred of Trump. She charged Trump with falsifying his company’s value when applying for loans in the State of New York. And she got Judge Arthur Engoron, an avowed socialist on the bench to go along with it. Engoron by the way, basically convicted Trump for fraud before the trial ever started. And when it came time to sentence him, he handed down the largest single fine in US history to an individual. This is the same guy that was beat down by the appellate courts not once, but five times during the course of the trial. It will be no surprise to anyone but to Engoron and James that Trump’s appeal will most likely succeed.

Now, let’s move to Georgia, where another state case is unfolding. That’s the one brought by Georgia District Attorney, Fani Willis. And that’s the one we’ve been watching unfold this past week. Willis, as you know by now, had hired Nathan Wade to prosecute Trump for trying to overturn the presidential election in Georgia in 2020. But it didn’t take a deep dive into Wade to find out this one started to smell like a kettle of fish left out in the desert heat for a week. Oops! It turns out that Wade and Willis had begun a relationship prior to his being hired. And when called on it, in a move that could very well get the whole case tossed out of court, she pretended that SHE was the victim screaming at anyone that would listen that she wasn’t on trial, Trump was. Wade by the way, works for an ambulance chasing/divorce law firm, and has never prosecuted anything like this before. He’s more of the guy that you see advertising on TV that if you’re injured in an accident, or you need a divorce, he’ll come to your rescue. And from what I’ve been able to uncover, he’s not very good at that either.

Now, let’s move to the two federal cases that are facing Trump. Both are being pursued by Special Counsel, Jack Smith. There’s the whole January 6th investigation, that is trying to get Trump basically charged with being an “insurrectionist”. That one Trump is fighting saying that he had nothing to do with inciting the people, and he was immune from prosecution because it occurred while he was the sitting president. That one is in front of the Supreme Court. Smith by the way, wants these trials to happen yesterday so it becomes public before the election. He knows if the high court takes it’s sweet time to hear it, and waits until June before they issue a ruling on the case, that getting a trial started prior to election day probably wouldn’t happen.

Then you’ve got the other case, that is starting to show that we’ve got that two-tiered system of justice we’ve been hearing so much about. That’s the Mar a Lago Classified Document case. And where Smith is finding it hard to navigate is because even though Robert Hur’s investigation of Joe Biden concluded that he “willfully took classified documents” and stored them in his garage next to his Corvette, Biden is just a nice old man with a poor memory and probably wouldn’t be found guilty by a jury because he probably would be found not able to stand trial due to his lack of mental acuity. But still, Donald Trump is going to be charged with a whole slew of charges that Biden wasn’t. The reason? Well, apparently it’s because Biden “fully cooperated” with the Department of Justice, and Trump didn’t. That means technically that Trump would have been guilty (or at least could be charged) of Obstruction of Justice. That seems to be the only difference in these two cases based on everything the talking heads in media, and the “law professors” from around the country have said.

So, there you have it. Trump is facing four situations where he is facing strong opposition from the liberals who don’t want him running for the White House. If it hasn’t become clear to you yet that this is a political ploy by the left to make sure he doesn’t run, and beat a very weak candidate in Joe Biden, you need to do more homework. I can’t think of a situation that has been more blatant, more of a travesty of justice than what we’ve been witness to in these four cases.

And the funny thing is, when all of this started, I actually thought Trump could be guilty and was just bloviating on how it was a smear job. Now I get it.

Carry on world…you’re dismissed!

Are You Ready For Rationing?

Interesting poll came out recently. I found a poll on American Thinker that said the Committee to Unleash Prosperity had conducted a poll that took actually two polls. One was given to “elites”, or the folks at the top who run things, and the other was given to everyday ordinary Americans.

The poll found 77% of the elites, and 90% of those that went to an Ivy League school, were in favor of rationing meat, gasoline, and electricity to combat “climate change”. Now, for purposes of this poll, “elites” were defined as people that had at least one post-graduate degree and an income of over $150,000, living in a “high population density area”.

When they asked the “normal” Americans about the same question, 63% were opposed to the idea, which I find astonishing that 37% of us fall for their power grab. But none the less, I guess the “dumbing down of America” thanks to people like Randi Weingarten of the American Federation of Teachers, has taken hold.

Nearly 60% of the elites say there are too many freedoms in America these days. Taken another way, 60% of these elites are saying they don’t have the control over the rest of us that they would like.

What is interesting to note here is that the elites would not be included in the rationing. They’d still be able to enjoy an In & Out burger, or a Ruth’s Chris Steak. And they’d still have their lights on long after your candle burns out. And don’t for a minute think that these folks would be giving up any of their own freedoms. No, they want your freedoms. They’d probably like to limit your movement around the country, your freedom to speak as you like, and your freedom to worship as you choose.

That’s what makes this group of people extremely dangerous. And they need to be knocked down a few pegs. Maybe lose that cushy teaching job at Yale or Harvard? Maybe live in a small country house in the middle of nowhere, with no internet access? Maybe they need to raise their own food, fend for themselves and stop relying on the bullying of others to maintain their lifestyle?

Sounds to me like that would be a great start! And don’t forget…there’s more of us than there is of them.

Biden Skates On Classified Docs Probe…Or Does He?

Joe Biden heard Special Council Robert Hur’s results of a fifteen month investigation into the classified documents that Biden had stored in his garage, next to his prized Corvette. Hur said that he does not intend to charge Biden with anything resulting in the investigation.

Hur went on to say, “We conclude that no criminal charges are warranted in this matter,” said Hur’s report. “We would conclude the same even if there was no policy against charging a sitting president. Our investigation uncovered evidence that President Biden willfully retained and disclosed classified information after his vice presidency when he was a private citizen.”

But that’s not where it ends.

Hur went on to say he “uncovered evidence that President Biden willfully retained and disclosed classified information after his vice presidency when he was a private citizen. These materials included (1) marked classified documents about military and foreign policy in Afghanistan, and (2) notebooks containing Mr. Biden’s handwritten entries about issues of national security and foreign policy implicating sensitive intelligence sources and methods. The materials were found in the garage, offices, and basement den in Mr. Biden’s Wilmington, Delaware home.”

Probably what was far more damning in Hur’s report was the fact that he outlined what he saw in over five hours of interviews with Biden, “”We have also considered that, at trial, Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,” the report said. “It would be difficult to convince a jury that they should convict him — by then a former president well into his eighties — of a serious felony that requires a mental state of willfulness.”

Frankly, that’s the part of the whole enchilada that is going to live on and become a serious flaw in Biden’s bid to win reelection. Either he is a man who has serious flaws in his mental ability to do the job, or he’s not got serious flaws, and he’s capable of running the free world. Somehow, I don’t think Biden is going to be able to convince a large majority (upwards of 80%) that he’s mentally and physically able to handle the job. And that’s where the whole process is more of an indictment on the president than anything Hur could have charged him with.

And let’s be honest. As the picture above shows, these documents weren’t being stored in a locked and secure environment. They were placed in cardboard boxes strewn around his home, and in his garage. In fact, I can think of a lot of my neighbors that have cardboard boxes stacked in their garages here in the desert that are far more secure than what I saw in Biden’s garage!

If you think for a minute this is a story that will fade away over the next eight months, you’re sorely mistaken. And when you see that Biden skated on any charges, and yet, Jack Smith, Trump’s Special Prosecutor has thrown the book at him for basically the same “crime”, I think you’re going to see very quickly that what’s good for the goose should indeed be good for the gander.

Carry on world…you’re dismissed!
