Democrats thought they had a slam-dunk case of dirtying up Trump, prosecuting him, and cruising to a Biden second term with the GOP in total disarray.

A quick look around shows that reality didn’t follow their script. One case after another is falling apart. And the ones that remain are seen by the general public as being blatantly political.

The louder the left and their media surrogates bleat ‘convicted felon’, the less the public cares. And why should they?

We keep hearing the GOP are felons and that ‘nobody is above the law’, but is that claim reflected by what we see in reality?

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

Right up to the moment of his conviction, Senator Menendez continued to caucus with the Democrats, and his vote was leveraged to push the left’s policy agendas. That’s despite the seriousness of his charges.

A jury on Tuesday found Sen. Bob Menendez guilty on all counts in his federal corruption trial, and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer swiftly called on his Democratic colleague to resign.

Menendez, of New Jersey, was convicted of 16 counts — including bribery, extortion, wire fraud, obstruction of justice and acting as a foreign agent — for his role in a yearslong bribery scheme.

The verdict is a staggering blow for the Democratic establishment in New Jersey, where longtime state powerbroker George Norcross faces a separate racketeering indictment, and a stain on the party’s national brand. Menendez, one of the most feared and influential figures in state politics, now faces decades in prison — and further questions about how he wielded his power as the former chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee.
[…] Schumer, who had previously refused to weigh in on whether Menendez should step down, immediately released a statement after the verdict was announced, saying that Menendez “must now do what is right for his constituents, the Senate, and our country, and resign.” From Menendez’s home state, Gov. Phil Murphy and Sen. Cory Booker, both Democrats, reiterated their previous calls for Menendez to step down, and many Democrats on Capitol Hill followed Schumer’s lead, including Judiciary Chairman and Majority Whip Dick Durbin. — CNN

The bold text was not in the original, but brings attention to the left’s mentality of power at any price.

The Senate has a criminal conviction for corruption and bribery. From foreign nationals, no less. Did his conscience ever bother him when his party endlessly screamed their baseless allegations of ‘Russian Collusion’ at the GOP? He’ll have plenty of time to reflect on that irony as he awaits sentencing.

The House Democrats have no more moral authority than their Senate Counterparts.  The GOP has joined in votes to censure Steve King for an unfortunate statement made about race, and George Santos was thrown out of the party not for any criminal wrongdoing, but for being a dishonest braggart.

The Dems have no such scruples about sanctioning their own members — even when uttering antisemitic tropes, or sleeping with Chinese agents. And last we checked, Henry Cuellar still hasn’t been thrown out of Congress.

A member of the U.S. Congress, Texas Democrat Henry Cuellar, has been indicted on federal corruption charges. Cuellar and his wife are accused of taking hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes from two foreign entities. And in return, Cuellar allegedly used his position in Congress to take action on their behalf.
[…] Now, as for the charges, there are a whole bunch of them – 14 in all against both Cuellar and his wife, Imelda. Some of them are conspiracy, bribery, money laundering, honest services fraud, public official acting as an agent of a foreign principle. And these are significant charges, and there is significant potential prison time connected with them. So this is real legal peril.
[…] So the indictment says that from 2014 up until at least 2021, Cuellar and his wife accepted almost $600,000 in bribes in total. And those bribes prosecutors say came from an oil and gas company owned by the government of Azerbaijan, and they also came from a Mexican bank. Now, prosecutors say those bribe payments were laundered pursuant to these sham consulting contracts, they say, through front companies and middlemen into shell companies that were owned by Imelda Cuellar. Prosecutors say Imelda did no legitimate work under those contracts. Now, in return for those bribe payments, prosecutors say Cuellar used his position in Congress to advance both Azerbaijan’s interests and the interests of the Mexican bank. — NPR

See a pattern forming?

Let’s continue.

Two associates of President Trump refused to comply with a subpoena issued by the J6 committee, whose legitimacy is, at best, described as ‘contested’. They are both cooling their heels in prison.

Meanwhile the top officer of Biden’s DOJ has flatly refused to produced evidence subpoenaed by a duly-constituted Impeachment Committee, and fears no.

Also in the Executive Branch — Sam Brinton, the Biden appointee best remembered for being a cross-dressing luggage thief, and a repeat offender at that, somehow managed to avoid jail time.

Sam Brinton, who has faced multiple felony larceny charges for stealing luggage in Minnesota, Nevada, and Washington, D.C., pleaded guilty to petit larceny in exchange for a lighter sentence that includes 50 hours of community service, entrance into an adult diversion program, and a letter of apology to victim Asya Khamsin, who is a Tanzanian fashion designer. — JustTheNews

Surely an administration that never misses an opportunity to defame Trump as a ‘convicted felon’ on account of charges that will probably collapse under the weight of prosecutorial malpractice has no skeletons under its own closet, do they?

Of course they do. Where should we start?

Obvious examples of Obstruction of Justice in blocking the prosecution of Hunter Biden? What about prosecuting tax laws against other people while letting the statute run out on millions of unpaid taxes for Hunter Biden that would have raised MANY uncomfortable questions for Joe Biden himself.

What about the Democrats coordinating to stonewall and block access to the hundreds of Suspicious Activities Reports that exposed the depth of financial corruption the Biden family was almost certainly involved in… to the tune of millions and millions of dollars illicitly paid by foreign actors, many of them hostile to America.

Joe has the gall to hire tens of thousands of more tax agents so that those OTHER people can ‘pay their fair share’ while he himself has raked in millions without paying a dime on it.

He is actively trying to strip law-abiding Americans of their gun rights while his own DOJ almost gave him a sweetheart deal to avoid any serious consequences to a crime for which others have spent years in prison.

And the cherry on top: the documents case.

Biden’s DOJ ran roughshod over Trump’s constitutional rights in the very public humiliation of the raid of Mar-A-Lago which ‘just happened to’ have a big impact on the 2022 midterm elections. They leaked staged photos to the public as if they were legitimate evidence. Trump was willing to cooperate with National Archives, but Biden’s DOJ tried to play ‘gotcha’… and the case fell apart for a lot of reasons, not the least of which was Joe’s selection of Jack Smith, who had zero authority to do any of the acts he undertook.

In the end, Trump had one thing that set him apart from anyone else in a documents case question: as President, he had sole discretionary authority for declassification. That is NOT a minor detail in the allegations raised against him.

Contrast that to allegations against Joe Biden. Joe had classified documents. He knew he had them, he mentioned them to the ghostwriter. He received money for that information. The ghostwriter was pressured to destroy the evidence of his conversation with Joe. For classified documents, there is no provision in law for a criminal act being mitigated by an innocent motive. You either did the thing or you did not… motive is irrelevant.

Joe Biden was found to be in violation of the same Classified Records legislation that Trump was accused of defying. The only thing that prevented him from having charges recommended against him was that he was a forgetful old man.

Said differently, he was unfit to stand trial… but he’s running for a second term as President.

The next time Democrats try to take the moral high ground… remind them that they haven’t got any to stand on.
