Jussie Smollett gets just 150 days in jail for staging a fake hate crime. Prior to the truth coming out, he was the hero of the liberal left media, Hollywood and the Democrats.
The poor citizen protestor labeled the QAnon Shaman gets nearly 4 years in jail for walking into the Capitol and sitting at Nancy Pelosi’s throne while another citizen from Arkansas who sat with his feet on Pelosi’s office desk also gets a long jail sentence. Pelosi’s throne is where she shredded a Presidential State of the Union transcript (Property of We the People by the way) and at the next SOTU where she rubbed her knuckles together in a fiendish display of octogenarian arrogance. So, who has dishonored the Office more, the horned Chewbacca man or the Speaker of the House?
A retired, disabled Navy Lt. Commander who, along with his wife was on the Capitol grounds on January 6th but didn’t even enter the building, is arrested and placed in solitary confinement for nine months—without being charged! He is still being harassed by the DOJ. His crime may have been calling those in the Capitol traitors. According to the first Amendment, that was his right. If the DOJ persists, then the disabled Vet’s statement about traitors may turn out to have been true. This political prosecution persecution must end. The Department of Justice is supposed to serve the People, not the political party in power.
An unarmed Air Force veteran protestor who entered the building may have been murdered by a member of Capitol security. There are no charges. As a minimum, this appears to be a wrongful death, perhaps manslaughter. This needs to be investigated by a third-party, unbiased prosecutor.
One of the obvious riot instigators has not been charged, perhaps not even investigated which leads to the suspicion by many that he was an FBI plant. If he was a CIA plant, then that makes the matter much worse. This also needs to be investigated by a third-party, unbiased prosecutor.
The January 6th protest was no different than previous Presidential election protests by the far-Left. The far-Left protestors just didn’t have their leader upfront and center. There were far-Left marches on the Capitol following the 2000 and 2016 elections and even death threats against the duly elected Presidents by members of the Hollywood establishment but there was no DOJ or Secret Service investigation. A coalition of Soros-backed left-wing activist organizations including Women’s March, the Center for Popular Democracy and Housing Works pounded on the doors during the Kavanaugh hearings as part of an organized effort to derail the confirmation process. Not sure where the Capitol police were at the time. It appears they were not guarding the elevators at the time, just ask Jeff Flake.
Articles of Impeachment were filed during the January 2017 Inauguration and an FBI coup was initiated against the new President during his campaign and while in office. Now that coup attempt is being investigated by John Durham, but ever so slowly and too late to have any effect.
In contrast, the January 6th protest followed over a year of violent protests by BLM and Antifa that resulted in property damage and loss of life with no prosecutions. Those that were arrested were bailed out by anti-Democracy Democrats which included the current Vice President.
The January 6th protestors have been treated differently, perhaps even unfairly. We really don’t know because there has been no investigation of the individual circumstances by the media or even the ACLU. This is not the America countless patriots died to protect. It has become a nation ruled by a class of political, bureaucratic, financial and technological oligarchs.
The electioneering process has changed. Money from political contributions used to go into advertising which was mostly propaganda with some factual basis. There was some cash spent on grass roots “Get out the vote” efforts by the political party operatives. Some of the money still goes into advertising but now Big Tech oligarchs are funding the “Get out the vote” with their own approved operatives. The main objective is vote harvesting. The political parties can take it or leave it. The Democrats took it and the results are in. Now those who voted for Biden own the results of electing someone already known to be corrupt, incompetent and no longer cognitive just because he wasn’t the other guy. Even though the other guy’s policies were good for America. Go figure.
I agree with most of this but have a slightly different take on the election. Biden won, in my opinion, because of the Covid pandemic. The pandemic allowed several states to loosen their over 100-year election rules and laws guaranteeing a valid and auditable election. We had unmonitored ballot drop boxes and valid ballots everywhere for the taking. These allowed anyone to vote as often as they liked, and the ballot and voter could not be checked. When a mail-in ballot is requested, the ballot can be checked against the application, not so for mass mailed ballots. When a vote is dropped off at a monitored box, the voter's id can be checked. A mayor was caught putting two ballots in a drop box! All elections must be secure so the voters know who one. No one can say who won in 2020 with any confidence, which is why a Rasmussen poll found that most people don't believe the 2020 results.
