New in PJ Media:
When he’s right, he’s right. Donald Trump issued a statement on Thursday evening after the United States of America completed its descent to banana-republic status, saying: “This is Political Persecution and Election Interference at the highest level in history.” He then recalled some of the Left’s earlier attempts to frame and destroy him for crimes he didn’t commit. This instance is no different: every sentient being on the planet knows that Trump hasn’t been indicted for any actual criminal activity, but because he is the foremost foe of the Leftist political establishment, and thus the fundamental obstacle to their authoritarian goals.
With the indictment, that establishment has shown that it has no regard whatsoever for the rule of law, which is not to say that this indictment won’t succeed in destroying Trump’s 2024 candidacy and his chances of returning to the White House. Three House Republicans–Jim Jordan, James Comer, and Bryan Steil–recently wrote a letter to Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg, who Trump rightly said Thursday evening was “doing Joe Biden’s dirty work.” They pointed out that “even the Washington Post quoted ‘legal experts’ as calling your actions ‘unusual’ because ‘prosecutors have repeatedly examined the long-established details but decided not to pursue charges.’”
In this, they echoed, of all people, the New York Times, which recently admitted that hush money, which is what this indictment is ostensibly all about, “is not inherently illegal.” Charlie Kirk of Turning Point USA tweeted: “Alvin Bragg lowered 52% of criminal charges in NYC last year to misdemeanors. He just bent over backwards legally to raise the charges against Trump to a felony. WITCH HUNT!!”
The flimsiness of the case against Trump, however, is not a bug, it’s a feature. The Democrat establishment is signaling its willingness to go after their nemesis on any basis, no matter how trivial, and to make something out of nothing in any way they possibly can, so as to deny his ability to challenge its hegemony. Trump recalled: “From the time I came down the golden escalator at Trump Tower, and even before I was sworn in as your President of the United States, the Radical Left Democrats – the enemy of the hard-working men and women of this Country – have been engaged in a Witch-Hunt to destroy the Make America Great Again movement.”
Here again, when he’s right, he’s right: he reminded us all of the many ways they have gone after him in the past over nothing: “You remember it just like I do: Russia, Russia, Russia; the Mueller Hoax; Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine; Impeachment Hoax 1; Impeachment Hoax 2; the illegal and unconstitutional Mar-a-Lago raid; and now this.” Now this, the biggest nothing of all, and they’re going farther with it than with any of their previous attempts.
There is more. Read the rest here.

So it’s now blatantly obvious that the Democrats and their chums aren’t bothering to play by the rules anymore. Which means that no one else need feel obliged to play be the rules. What are you waiting for, good people of America?
dazzleme says
I’m waiting for democrats to be held accountable, which I’m sure won’t happen.
Walter Sieruk says
Donald Trump being indicted by that leftist politically correct “grand jury” is nothing but vicious political persecution.
What else can any informed person expect from a left-wing jury that isn’t really “grand ” at all.
This indictment is an absurd ,unjust unfair biased case of malicious of political harassment of Mr. Trump and his family.
Shame on that “grand jury.”
dazzleme says
Exactly Walter!
Walter Sieruk says
That indictment of Donald Trump is a vicious wicked travesty. Its been rightly called “legal voodoo.”
Walter Sieruk says
That indictment of Donald Trump by those vicious malice-milled leftists in power isn’t really “;legal prosecution” but political persecution.
Walter Sieruk says
Those vicious leftist/socialists along with their comrades of the Red/Green alliance have now come after Donald Trump with all their hate-fulled malice, it’s only a matter of time before they will later come come after all Conservative patriotic Americans.
Walter Sieruk says
Question ; What is the NY Grand Jury ? Answer ; It’s a kangaroo court.
Walter Sieruk says
That Inducement of Donald Trump is proof that the powers of evil are growing stronger in strength every year.
Furthermore ,back when President Trump was in the Oval Office of the White House it was appropriate to say “God Bless America.” Now with the fiendish un-American subversive treasonous villain, Joe Biden, sitting in the Oval Office of the White House masquerading as a real, genuine , US President it’s now very fitting to pray “Please God have mercy on America.”
Walter Sieruk says
After this vicious travesty of justice of a “legal indictment” against Donald Trump, which is political fiasco of persecution and malicious harassment all blows over , much later in time it will much in the annals of future history books certainly will, with honest and ethical historians who write only truth, will print what an outstanding good President Donald Trump was and that he just and fair man who stood for justice and accomplished must for the advancement of the United States in only four years in Office.
In contrast future good quality history books will reveal what a despicable and evil man President imposter Joe Biden was and how he did and still does everything wrong and terrible to tear down the United States and cause her to become a third world power.
So much so that the name of Joe Biden will rot in American history.
As the Bible informs its reader “The memory of the just is blessed: but the name of the wicked shall rot.” Proverbs 11:7. [K.J.V.]

It seems rather silly (without knowing all the facts of course) to pursue the call girl/blackmail/payoff case which seems to have misdemeanor status anyway when there are much more serious issues to deal with.
On the face of it this certainly looks like a politically motivated prosecution.
Apparently there are many more charges in the indictment covering a whole bunch of other issues so we’ll have to wait until it comes down next week to get a better idea.
In the meantime there is absolutely no basis to accuse the grand jury of being intellectually dishonest left-wing nut cases who have it in for Trump. The prosecutor may “have it in” for Trump but where’s the evidence that the grand jury does too? It is stupid to paint the grand jury with the same brush as the prosecutor.

Sen. Josh Hawley says it best: “this is all about power – and has nothing to do with the rule of law.”

somehistory says
Sen. Hawley wants the doj to pursue hate crime law concerning the TN shooting.
When biden was asked about that, he said he didn’t know whether he thought it was a hate crime.
Then someone told him what Sen. Hawley said, and he said that he (biden) probably didn’t think it was, then.
Everything biden and crew do, is about power and control.

Somehistory, you are exactly right, pier is what progressives want!

The felons are in charge of administering so called justice. Sell out your country to a foreign adversary you get elected by democrats. Try to make your country better you get prosecuted by democrats. It is futile to go on pretending that we can live together with democrats. Lets just do what must be done and get it over with.

tgusa says,
“It is futile to go on pretending that we can live together with democrats.”
Just a few short years ago, I would’ve thought that your comment would have been absurd.
I no longer feel that way.
tgusa says
There is no way around it, it is what it is James.
dazzleme says
James, I detest democrats, I don’t see any way to deal with them! They are just plain STUPID!
tgusa says
Here we are with President Trump (Make America Great) being hounded by the democrat clan. Check out AG Bragg and think about this. Black Americans are really angry because they believe they deserve better in America. AG Bragg is the face of why they have it the way they have it now. Keep voting democrat said the person who doesn’t like them.
Who can spot the major malfunction in all of that?
dazzleme says
How can blacks want more when they draw money for not working now. They have everything their way!
tgusa says
Back in the day President Reagan said a high tide lifts all boats. Democrats shrugged that off as wishful thinking. But I lived through it, the Great One was right, it does.
Aum says
Democrats are looking to gag Trump as part of the process.
tgusa says
I see and feel the same thoughts and emotions that I did when President Reagan was our leader that I do with President Trump. Both of those great men were attacked continuously. 35 years later the constant attacks have become even worse. Is that what we want as a country? President Trump has endured the worst but how low can they go no one knows. Strong Man, he is.
somehistory says
I saw a report just a few days ago, claiming that Reagan went behind the government and made a deal with the Iranians to keep the hostages until after the election so he could beat carter.
I have no idea if there is any Truth in it, but it certainly doesn’t make any difference now. It just seems a way to make people think badly of him.
dazzleme says
Somehistory, I would be surprised if Reagan did that but regardless he was one of the greatest presidents of our time.
