The government bureaucracy has been after President Trump since he came down the escalator in June 2015. The government has broken its own laws to manufacture false evidence, people in the Department of Justice have lied under oath, and generally speaking, many in our government have compromised the principles that have made this country great. On Saturday, The Hill<\/a> posted an article about the negative impact the indictment of President Trump has on America.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

First, it reinforces the view, shared by many conservatives, that our government delivers a two-tiered system of justice \u2014 one for people on the right and another for those on the left. Donald Trump, after all, is not the only public official found to have mishandled secret documents<\/a>. Special Counsel Jack Smith <\/a><\/span>claimed<\/a>, as he brought the indictment: \u201cWe have one set of laws in this country, and they apply to everyone.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

History suggests otherwise.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Former President Bill Clinton <\/a><\/span>was found to have taken audio recordings of his discussions while in the White House and kept them in his sock drawer after his term was up. Judicial Watch sued to access the tapes, claiming they should be considered part of the presidential archive. But a judge ruled against the conservative group<\/a>, claiming she had no jurisdiction and that such demands could only be made by the National Archives and Records Administration. NARA declined to seek the tapes.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article also cites Hillary Clinton and President Biden’s mishandling of classified information.<\/p>\n

The article continues:<\/p>\n

Second, the announcement of Trump\u2019s indictment just happened to occur on the very day that members of Congress were shown an FBI document containing credible allegations<\/a> that Biden accepted a $5 million bribe<\/a> from a Ukrainian company. Instead of burrowing in on claims from a trusted whistleblower that our president, as vice president, accepted payment from Burisma in return for helping to oust Ukraine\u2019s top prosecutor, Biden\u2019s Justice Department created a powerful distraction.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is unacceptable. The allegations against Biden are not far-fetched. We know for a fact that Biden pushed Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko <\/a><\/span>in March 2016 to fire Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin,<\/a><\/span> threatening to pull $1 billion in U.S. aid unless he did so<\/a>. We know that because Biden actually boasted about it to a meeting of the Council on Foreign Relations.<\/strong><\/p>\n

…Third, Biden has talked a great deal about protecting our democracy and the sanctity of open and fair elections. Call me crazy, but Biden\u2019s DOJ indicting his most likely 2024 campaign rival on charges that, as in the case of Hillary Clinton, might or might not justify prosecution, seems to qualify as election interference. The president is running for another term; polls show<\/a> his prospects are poor.<\/strong><\/p>\n

When a sitting president is struggling to get his approval ratings above 40 percent, he is in trouble. An NBC News survey from last month showed that 70 percent of voters, and more than half of Democrats, do not want Biden to run<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Unfortunately, many Americans who get their news from the mainstream media have not idea how politically weaponized our Justice Department has become. Unfortunately, by the time they wake up to reality, equal justice under the law may be a thing of the past in America.<\/p>\n
