“We didn’t love freedom enough.” — Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn
Do you think that more than half of the US public may be getting a little irked with “Joe Biden’s” lawfare elf, AG Merrick Garland, as he rolls one innocent J-6 protester after another into decades of hard-time for strolling through the US Capitol building — while the special counsels assigned to only a few of the Biden family crimes play hide-the-salami with due process?
For all their cheap talk about “our democracy,” it’s a little scary to see what Democratic Party lawyers actually think of the legal system that is supposed to allow a society based on liberty to function fairly. Court filings last week indicate that Special Counsel David Weiss is about to indict Hunter Biden on that gun charge they have used as the joker in a three-card Monte game for going on five years.
Last time, they ran the game before Delaware federal judge Maryellen Noreika, she detected a teeny-weeny, sneaky clause in the plea agreement to a watered-down gun charge that would have granted immunity to Hunter B from any other past wrongdoing, including, of course, the entire alleged Biden family racketeering operation that had the First Son acting as prime broker and bag-man for tens of millions of dollars in bribes from foreign actors in countries less than friendly to US interests, funneled into any number of Biden family shell corporations. Judge Noreika nixed the plea agreement.
Now, Mr. Weiss’s crew seems to be saying that the immunity clause is still tied to any plea deal answering a forthcoming September 29 indictment. The move would appear to be timed to exactly the moment that a House impeachment committee would begin its inquiry into the Biden family’s moneygrubbing activities. In ordinary House committee hearings, DOJ officials like to use the excuse of “an ongoing investigation” to demur from answering questions. Merrick Garland has done this dozens of times. Will they now try to upgrade that to “an ongoing prosecution?” Could that move lead to a constitutional impasse, requiring the Supreme Court to rule? Or does a House impeachment panel enjoy special privileges of inquiry?
It also appears that Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FLA) intends to force the issue of opening an impeachment ASAP against “Joe Biden.” In last January’s maneuvering to seat a new Republican House majority, Mr. Gaetz pushed through an agreement that the process to remove and replace the Speaker of the House could be activated by one vote. Mr. Gaetz reiterated last week that he means business. He’s the one vote.
The argument that Republicans should leave hands-off “Joe Biden” so they can run against the feeble old grifter in 2024 is preposterous because there is no way that the “JB” can possibly run for reelection under any circumstances. It’s just another trip being laid on the American public — and one that illustrates how tragic and dangerous is the absence of an honest news media for challenging such insolent gambits. The President can barely totter into a room now without making some embarrassing pratfall or gaffe. He couldn’t possibly survive a debate, especially with all the new records of his crimes unearthed since the last time around in 2020 when he pretended to know nothing about his son’s business dealings.
Anyway, the actual issue is not whether it’s politically advantageous to lay off “Joe Biden,” but the irrefutable fact that he (and the shadowy figures running his regime) are wrecking the country. He (they) can do a lot more damage in the many months leading up to January, 2025, especially around the dangerous idiocy that the US foreign policy gang pursues so blindly in Ukraine. You might argue that the “president” would never be convicted (actually booted out) in a Democrat majority Senate trial following a productive House impeachment. But both procedures would be televised and recorded for play on a thousand Internet channels, despite the connivance of a complicit legacy news media. And the public will finally see the case against “Joe Biden” and his family laid out carefully, precisely, and coherently, with high and grave decorum. Even some percentage of ring-fenced Democratic voters may have to finally conclude that something has gone very wrong in our country and in their own party.

The Left will never stop. They will never stop trying to destroy this country and you and me along with it.. They will never admit to any wrongdoing. They will never stop election cheating. They will never stop arming the government against its own citizens. They just will never stop any of it.
As soon as you faggots stop calling Jews “The Left”, we might get somewhere.
Kill em all.
Look folks,if you want to end this nonsense be like me and take the upcoming election seriously!
I know,your asking “James,whom should we vote for”?,and that’s a fantastic question though the answer is simple…..,vote Banana Duck party across the board if you want meaningful change for the better!
Ima hafta wait to see who he picks as his running mate before going all in on BananaDuck.
Hmmmm……,well,Prepper Duck of course!
Kunsler’s big mistake is thinking the DemonRats give a shit about destroying themselves and the country. Destruction is how Satan rolls. There are no thought’s of consequences in their world.
Jim – horse hockey with road apples, again?
Half the country see’s DC’s (Donkey/Elephant glob-chimera) outrageous, unapologetic lies and the other half quote them like scripture.
We ALL know DC lies about everything. They know we know and they know there’s not a thing we can do about pan-spectrum, bold-face denial of documented fact. Facts do NOT matter.
At 6:35, John Kirby is having a good time, confident, smiling and amused as he spins absolute horseshit into liar’s gold.
Our country is now in its final death throws, as the corruption throughout our entire society, is now the rule instead of the exception.
The fact that the public will stand still, while hundred’s of people are victims of political prosecution’s, is in itself proof we no longer hold the ideals the country was founded on.
We are not a country of laws, as you are often told, we are a country of justice, and when the laws and justice are at odds, it is justice that we must abide by. Our so called legal system is as corrupt as our politicians who are for sale to the highest bidders.
As a country, we deserve to collapse, and to suffer all of the pain that comes with that eventuality. Half our populating cannot tell the difference between right and wrong, and the half who can, are too cowardly to stand up for what is right.
That Jdog is true. Simply stated so anyone should be able to understand.
Good article, except, “there is no way that the “JB” can possibly run for reelection under any circumstances.”
But he can, I’m afraid.
a) I forget who it was that said, “I realized that the purpose of Communist propaganda was not to convince, but to humiliate.” So the more absurd it is, the better. And the true believers seem to be eating it up. They seem to be taking G. W. Bush’s advice, “You can fool some of the people all of time…and those are the ones you have to concentrate on.”
b) Most states use the proven hackable Dominion voting machines, So they can have him win by fifty million if they like.
c) There is evidence JB is not JB, but some actor. If it is, he’s good, because he’s portraying a senile buffoon quite well.
This assumes we have an election at all.
I don’t think they have that kind of power, but if they want to maintain that illusion, they better not run FJB, so I don’t think they will.
Biden will not make it. Dementia will not be over come.
Don’t impeach the old fellow, impeachment lends veracity to the false claim that he is president. Pursue the crimes with all vigor and publicize them as fully as possible, charge and try if possible, punish, if possible. But don’t impeach.
It’s unfortunate the GOP has allowed (participated in?) things to go so far. Clintons, 0bama’s, now this schmuck with the druggie kid, let this go and Caligula’s horse might be next. Mixed metaphors?
