The five criminal and civil prosecutions of Donald Trump all prompt heated denials from Democrats that President Biden and Democrat operatives had a role in any of them.
But Joe Biden has long let it be known that he was frustrated with his own Department of Justice’s federal prosecutors for their tardiness in indicting Donald Trump.
Biden was upset because any delay might mean that his rival Trump would not be in federal court during the 2024 election cycle. And that would mean he could not be tagged as a “convicted felon” by the November election while being kept off the campaign trail.
Politico has long prided itself on its supposed insider knowledge of the workings of the Biden administration. Note that it was reported earlier this February that a frustrated Joe Biden “has grumbled to aides and advisers that had Garland moved sooner in his investigation into former President Donald Trump’s election interference, a trial may already be underway or even have concluded…”
If there was any doubt about the Biden administration’s effort to force Trump into court before November, Politico further dispelled it—even as it blamed Trump for Biden’s anger at Garland: “That trial still could take place before the election and much of the delay is owed not to Garland but to deliberate resistance put up by the former president and his team.”
Note in passing how a presidential candidate’s legal right to oppose a politicized indictment months before an election by his opponent’s federal attorneys is smeared by Politico as “deliberate resistance.”
Given Politico was publicly reporting six months ago about Biden’s anger at the pace of his DOJ’s prosecution of Trump, does anyone believe his special counsel, Jack Smith, was not aware of such presidential displeasure and pressure?
Note Smith had petitioned and was denied an unusual request to the court to speed up the course of his Trump indictment.
And why would Biden’s own Attorney General, Merrick Garland, select such an obvious partisan as Smith? Remember, in his last tenure as special counsel, Smith had previously gone after popular Republican and conservative Virginia governor Bob MacDonald.
Yet Smith’s politized persecution of the innocent McDonnell was reversed by a unanimous verdict of the U.S. Supreme Court. That rare court unanimity normally should have raised a red flag to the Biden DOJ about both Smith’s partiality and his incompetence.
But then again, Smith’s wife had donated to the 2020 Biden campaign fund. And she was previously known for producing a hagiographic 2020 documentary (“Becoming”) about Michelle Obama.
Selecting a special counsel with a successful record of prior nonpartisan convictions was clearly not why the DOJ appointed Smith.
The White House’s involvement is not limited to the Smith federal indictments.
Fulton County district attorney Fani Willis’s paramour and erstwhile lead prosecutor in her indictment of Trump, Nathan Wade, met twice with the White House counsel’s office. On one occasion, Wade met inside the Biden White House.
Democrats can deny all they want that Biden had nothing to do with these prosecutions, just as he “never spoke” to Hunter about his “business” dealings.
Bullshit. If your founding assumption about this particular mess begins with the undeniable fact that every one of these trials is nothing more than naked election interference, then it doesn’t matter if these denials are true because it’s all done on his behalf.
If your assumption lies elsewhere, then you’re too stupid, ignorant, or mindlessly partisan to be permitted to be out much less vote unsupervised.
There aren’t this many bogus indictments and trials, all in Democrat districts (except for Florida, which is being exposed for exactly what it truly is) by coincidence. From the penalty meted out in the no-evidence, no-witnesses, no-proof, no-credibility E. Jean Carroll case on, the intent and collusion has been clear. Democrats simply enjoy spreading massive lies with no repercussions.
Entire shit show fully coordinated by the same assholes that did the Russian scam.
January 2025 can not get here soon enough to begin rounding up all of the conspirators and putting them in prison for sedition and treason.
America will need a strong AG to do the work to hold these scoundrels accountable.
Biden with his Hands in the Cookie Jar then Claiming he didn’t steal the Cookies
You’re kidding, right? Being a lying, deceitful scumbag is why Jerk Smear was chosen. Just like the leftist judges that never recuse themselves, the bias and prejudice is the POINT of them being there. It’s their purpose to be prejudiced.
Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden should have given rushing those cases to the public more thought. As we’ve seen with Fani’s and Smith’s cases, the more time allowed, the more vulnerable the phony, farcical lawfare cases are to challenge and scrutiny. This has been the demise of the Democrat’s last hopes of tying Trump up in trial and more “convictions”.
Even now, it is surprising some of the ridiculous bullshit the left expects people to believe. They know their willfully ignorant moron lemming followers will believe anything they are told, but the majority still has functioning brains.

06/12/24 – Russian warships headed to Cuba, sail into the Carribean amid heightened tensions –
Because the stupid f*cking right-wing Republicans blocked all efforts to normalize relations with Cuba—which should be a trading partner closely aligned with the United States—even after Castro was gone.
They did the same damn thing with Iran, pissing away a golden opportunity when a moderate Iranian leader was in power.
Now they’re attempting to reinstall a twice-impeached convicted felon who sucks up to Vladimir Putin into the White House.
Sorry, not sorry. This is on your boy biden. He provoked Putin to defend against nato and western aggression. Now Biden wants his proxy army to fire misled into Russia. What a fucking dunce you are. Remind me never to recognize any ting you put forward regarding geopolitical issues. How fucking stupid you are.
Not fucking stupid enough to put a contemptable piece of shit like your serial-adulterer cult leader back into the White House.
Not stupid enough to be sending money to pay for a crooked billionaire’s army of lawyers while bitching about the high cost of my groceries.
Not stupid enough to think that Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine to protect Russia from “Nazi” aggression.
Not stupid enough to think that republicans are going to solve the deficit problem by cutting taxes for the rich and big corporations without touching Medicare and Social Security.
Not stupid enough to think that gay and trans people are a menace while ignoring heavily armed psychos shooting up clubs, crowds, and classrooms.
Not stupid enough to think Trump is going to round up and deport 10 million undocumented aliens without turning the country into a fucking police state.
Not stupid enough to think that making America the cryptocurrency capital of the world wouldn’t be the biggest scam of all time.
Not stupid enough to fail to realize that right-wing politicized social media is a mind-control mechanism, and that the right has monetized the mass distribution of fake news, disinformation, and propaganda.
Not stupid enough to fail to notice that right-wing social media propaganda about Ukraine is in lock step with the bullshit the Kremlin puts out.
Not stupid enough to think the entire criminal justice system is corrupt, while Donald Trump is as pure and innocent as the newly fallen snow.
Not stupid enough to think that January 6 was a false flag operation orchestrated by the FBI.
Not stupid enough to think that COVID vaccine was a government plot that killed more people than COVID.
Shall I go on? There’s plenty more.
Well yes you are. Because you are running an octogenarian dementia riddled brain dead cadaver who has done nothing but destroy America at every turn, right thinking Americans will vote President Trump back into office. That is how fucking stupid you are.
Not stupid enough to buy into the BS Rachael Maddow spews.

Maybe she should debate your lard-ass cult leader.
Why does she need ratings that badly?
We know Biden cant, getting a little desperate?
Trump will explode the moment they cut his microphone, and he’ll give them reason to do so. He won’t be playing to a rally crowd on debate night.
She might. There’s a good chance Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden won’t be capable.
Go fuck yourself
Only a really, really stupid person would try to pass that pile of lies off on anyone with an operational brain.
Everybody knows it’s true.
Moron, you really have to reach for normalizing relations with the Castros.
Can you link to any proof of your assertions?
Was it Cuban-Americans, who suffered from the regime?
I laughed out loud. What a pitiful attempt to try to blame republicans for what Biden has done. greg is in desperate times for sure.
What do you THINK Democrats will to? Take responsibility for all their failures and disasters? As long as their lemmings are STUPID enough to believe their repetitious lies, they will NEVER accept their responsibility.
07/27/15 – Republicans Stand Against Cuba Change Despite Public Opinion Shift –
10/18/16 – Top Republican pledges to maintain Cuba trade embargo –
So now—because of the f*cking posturing imbeciles you keep electing—we’ve once again got relations between Russia and Cuba strengthening, and Russian warships making port calls only 90 miles from from the United States.
You are a fucking moron. Almost 8-9 years ago and Putin suddenly responds. One has nothing to do with the other.
Maybe we should require IQ tests before allowing people to vote.
If we had normalized relations with Cuba, they’d have had no use for alliances with Putin. They’d have had too much to lose economically. Both the US and Cuba would have prospered.
Putin is taking advantage of Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden’s incompetence and weakness. Thanks to his stupid energy policies, Putin has plenty of revenue to court Cuba and he knows gutless chickenshit moron Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden won’t do a damned thing to stop him.
06/12/24 – Russian Flotilla Off Florida Coast Sparks Deployment of US Navy Destroyers, Planes –
As usual, you stand up for the socialist dictatorship. Well, at least you are consistent.
Our adversaries love to prove to the world how weak and incompetent Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden is. Trump kept Putin in Russia instead of Ukraine and Cuba. Trump kept Iran out of Israel. Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden sucks them all off and lets them have their way with whatever they want to rape. And he is totally compromised with Xi.
This country cannot have Trump back in the White House soon enough. Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden has been a global disaster.
An absurd statement from a putz, likely lifted it from democrat underground or daily kos.
Russian Yasen-Class Nuclear Submarine “Kazan” Along With 3 Warships Arrive in Havana, Cuba
Cuban Missile Crisis 2.0.
No nukes this time, but delivery of RU hypersonic missiles 90 miles from USA.
Putin just said “checkmate” to Joe “Whatever,… Pause” Biden cuz he has allowed his bagman Zel to use US weapons to strike Mother RU.
Interesting Times, no?
Who did not see this coming?
Let’s see… how does without bail, in solitary confinement and without representation sound?
Surely you aren’t implying that the J6 insurrectionists were denied representation.
Yeah, they were. I’ve posted the facts before.
The word “facts” is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. I’ve seen your “facts.” Nobody was denied representation. The lawyer for several of the insurrectionists caught COVID and didn’t show up to work, but nobody was denied representation. If nothing else, the MAGA Supreme Court majority would have been all over that.
Yes, they were, as clearly shown. Garland should also have whatever medications he is on denied him and beaten by guards. Just like the January 6th political prisoners. Of course, unlike the January 6th prisoners, Herr Obergruppenfuhrer will know his charge.
Why, oh, why didn’t the lawyers go straight to the Supreme Court?
You really don’t understand how anything works, do you? Such as supporting your comments with facts. Like, where are those comments of those you say predicted Trump would be acquitted or were calling for civil war.
Arrest his sad ass
Trump has already been arrested, tried, and convicted by a jury of 12. 34 felony counts. Trials pending in state and federal courts.
What was the crime all 12 jurors unanimously agreed Trump was guilty of that made a misdemeanor bookkeeping error a felony? What was the point of charging the same charge 34 times? Why was propaganda so important?
I hope Herr Obergruppenfuhrer Garland winds up a Capital cell under the same conditions he put January 6th “trespassers” and “paraders”.
Well, Herr Obergruppenfuhrer Garland is definitely contemptable.
Trump sure enough likes his shiny gold stuff. Even his damn toilet seats.

https://www.opensecrets.org/news/2019/06/scotus-justices-rack-up-trips/
Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg disclosed taking more trips than any other justice in 2018, totaling 14. She visited Tel Aviv, Israel where she was awarded a lifetime achievement award by the Genesis Prize Foundation. Shortly following the award ceremony, she disclosed being provided transportation, food and lodging as a tourist and guest of billionaire Israeli businessman Morris Kahn.
Justice Stephen Breyer disclosed a dozen trips, three of which were supported by the wealthy Chicago-based Pritzker family. Breyer took two trips related to his position on the Pritzker Prize for Architecture jury, which honors architects each year. Breyer has served on the Pritzker jury since 2011 and became chair in 2018. He also disclosed taking a one-week trip to Ireland and Spain as part of the “Pritzker Fly-Around Program,” which paid for his transportation, lodging and meals. Breyer has taken 219 reimbursed trips since 2004, more than any other sitting justice.
When has Justice Thomas been involved in a case involving his friend? Without bribery, there is no bribe. Now, take Sotomayor, for example…
When will you leftists actually start respecting the judicial system instead of just weaponizing it?

The Bidens go to Nantucket every year on a mooch have been for 40 years. IYKYK.
The democrats are going after the Supreme Court justices trying to trim their sails. There are a number of significant cases whose decisions this month will have significant ramifications. Chevron deference along with Fischer v US and the granddaddy, Presidential immunity.
