When historians study how the greatest nation in human history fell so far, so fast, the imprisonment of those standing for election integrity will be considered the moment when the party of treason crossed the Rubicon.
Their continued imprisonment is a stunning indictment of the do-nothing Republican party. Worthless.
We are two countries now. One side is being devoured with little appetite for the fight or the will to wage it.
Dishonoring Independence Day
By Denise McNamara, The American Thinker, July 4, 2024:
This very week as we celebrate our nation’s Independence Day, hundreds of political prisoners are being denied their freedom in the United States of America. These citizens serving prison time for trumped-up (no pun intended) charges, mainly misdemeanors such as unlawful entry (although the Capitol Police held the doors open and encouraged entry) and trespassing, just received some encouraging news. Last week’s Supreme Court decision in Fischer vs. U.S. held that the most severe law cited in the January 6 prosecutions — insurrection — does not apply to riots or protests, which means the accusations of “insurrection” have been downgraded to mere trespassing.
As you enjoy the most expensive hotdogs and beer in the history of our Republic (thanks to Bidenomics!), don’t forget the men and women who are locked up for the crime of exercising their First Amendment right to assemble and express their opinions at the January 6 rally.
Violent Antifa and BLM protestors destroyed buildings and set fires in Minneapolis, Portland, New York City, Kenosha, and Chicago with little to no consequences, while conservatives are being rounded up and imprisoned solely because of their political persuasion.
Then there is Peter Navarro, former Director of the White House Trade Council in the Trump administration, who has been in prison for four months because he asserted executive privilege and ignored a congressional subpoena, which is a misdemeanor. Peter is a 74-year-old man whom the FBI handcuffed and shackled as he attempted to board a flight. In America.
Even U.S. District Court judge Amit Mehta admitted, “It is curious… at a minimum why the government treated Mr. Navarro’s arrest in the way it did. It is a federal crime, but it is not a violent crime.”
