The date was January 2021, not so long ago. The country was still in the throes of COVID, lockdowns, school closures, masks and eating in the middle of a boulevard! We had also just concluded the most contentious election in the history of the nation. Those who voted for Joe Biden were sure that he had accumulated 81 million votes – more votes than their beloved Barack! On the other side, there were some 71 million voters who believed that the election was “stolen” and that Donald Trump was the winner – except for the cheating that took place. And there is one thing for sure … Trump believed in his heart and in his head that the election of 2020 was stolen. More on this later.
Recall when Obama told us that we were only a short time away from ‘fundamentally transforming America’. Now there is general agreement that the fundamental change he was able to institute was taking race relations back 70 years. From Trayvon Martin to Ferguson and the “racist” Boston cops who arrested a black man for breaking and entering his own home. No matter what the issue, our half-black, half-white president colored everything going on in the country with a racial twist. But his work was not complete … however, the election of 2020 would take care of that.
Joe Biden, from day one in the White House, undertook the unfinished task of fundamentally changing our country. The price for fuel was low – Biden turned off the fuel spigot and the price shot up.
And to make sure the prices stayed that way, he sold millions of gallons of our strategic oil reserves to China! The price of everyday necessities like milk, bread and eggs shot up overnight. But it was not all up --- your 401K retirement account took a nosedive --- losing 30% of its value in the first few months of the Biden Administration.
The border was thrown open, while at the same time, the jail doors began slamming shut on just about anyone who was in Washington, DC on Jan 6th and did not have a “D” next to their name.
We discovered that the FBI and the DOJ were not balancing the scales of justice – and that justice in America was in fact “Not Blind” as we were all raised to believe – the blindfold was off, and it turns out that Lady Justice is a registered Democrat!
It is not possible to reach any other conclusion. The Department of Justice under the leadership of Merrick Garland has clearly been morphed into a political sledgehammer for the Biden Administration --- aided and abetted by Christopher Wray and the senior leadership of the FBI. I could go on about the fake “Russia, Russia, Russia” dossier, Clinton, Obama, Biden, Strzok, Page --- Twitter and Face Book manipulations to hide information from the public in the most egregious manner. I could, but I won’t. Because none of this can be topped by the appointment of Jack Smith as Special Counsel to the DOJ for the prosecution and persecution of the 45th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump.
In almost 300 years, we have not seen anything like Jack Smith and his office of government prosecutors who are turning the government of the United States into a third world banana republic --- one that jails their political opposition. Let’s take a quick look at Alexie Navalny, the opposition to Putin in Russia. The BBC tells us that … Navalny’s organization has been declared “extremist”. In August of 2020 Navalny was attacked with nerve agent in an attempt to kill him. Saved by German doctors Navalny’s message is that Putin’s party is full of crooks and thieves … concentrating power in the Kremlin. Any of that sound familiar?
Jailed in 2021 and sentenced to another 19-year prison term in August of 2023 reflects the … fact that Mr. Putin and his regime fear the influence Navalny’s campaigns have been gaining. This is the course that Jack Smith has set for the country – for the first time in 300 years, we are going to ignore an individual’s rights under the Constitution by taking a political candidate who the Biden regime fears and attempt to convict him of crimes that are not crimes in the legal sense --- putting him in jail so that he cannot lead the opposition in this country. So, like Maduro in Venezuela or the military junta in Myanmar or Kim Jong Un in North Korea or Ali Khamenei in Iran, Jack Smith will attempt to do the dirty work of the Biden Administration.
For those who are unaware of Jack Smith’s legal prowess, we find that Jack is a kind of real life legal Jekel and Hyde. He talks about the law like he really cares about it; but, his track record on dealing with high profile individuals tells a different story. Reversed in an 8 to 0 decision by the US Supreme Court, Smith’s conviction on bribery of the Governor of Virginia, Robert McDonald(R), was characterized by the court as … concern for the broader implications of the Government’s boundless interpretation of the federal bribery statue as reported by Politico in 2016. The High Court rebuked Smith and warned that the uncontrolled power of criminal prosecutors is a threat to our separation of powers. Smith lost the prosecution of then Vice Presidential candidate John Edwards for allegedly violating Federal Campaign law. A mistrial on 5 counts and an acquittal on one and Edwards was a free man. Smith charged Senator Bob Menendez on public corruption charges. The case ended in a mistrial. The way the case was … investigated was wrong, and the way it was tried was wrong as well. (Washington Examiner 6/5/23).
Smith’s track record demonstrates that he has no problem skirting the law and inventing novel prosecutions, which clearly do not meet the standards for incarcerating someone --- most especially a political opponent. This is the man that Merrick Garland recalled from the Hague for the expressed purpose of prosecuting and most certainly persecuting Donald Trump.
I get it --- a lot of people do not like Trump and do not want to see him as the 47th President. And to that I say, while it is noted that “no one is above the law” so it also must be noted that “no one is beneath the law” either. We do not need Jack Smith to decide this issue for us --- let the voters decide in November of 2024. It is time for some Federal Judges to develop some guts – enforce the Rule of Law – slap Smith down when it is warranted and get this persecution of Trump off the front burner.
A FREE AND FAIR election is what this country needs in 2024. Without it, we will continue our long slow slide into darkness.
Right on Marc!! 2024 will decide our country’s future!! Will our Citizens step forward to save it!!
