Democrats are once again practicing one of their favorite political maxims: “Always accuse your enemy of that which you are doing.”
But this time, they are doing so in hilarious fashion.
As the race for the presidency heats up, Democratic lawmakers who were part of the House Select Jan. 6 Committee recently told the Los Angeles Times that they are afraid that they will be arrested if former President Donald Trump wins in November.
Now, as Trump is poised to win the Republican presidential nomination, his criminal trials face delays that could stall them past election day and his rhetoric grows increasingly authoritarian, some of those lawmakers find themselves following their own advice.
In mid-March, Trump said on social media that the committee members should be jailed. In December he vowed to be a dictator on “day one.” In August, he said he would “have no choice” but to lock up his political opponents.
Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-CA) said that if Trump “intends to eliminate our constitutional system and start arresting his political enemies, I guess I would be on that list.”
Not to be outdone, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) also joined in on the pearl-clutching. He indicated that he is having “real-time conversations” with members of this staff to develop a plan to protect him if Trump goes all Stalin on him. “We’ve seen this movie before … and how perilous it is to ignore what someone is saying when they say they want to be a dictator,” he whined.
This is a projection of classic proportions, considering the extent to which the federal government under President Joe Biden has been wielded as a political weapon against political opponents. From the politically motivated prosecutions against the Orange Man What Is Bad™ to efforts against pro-life protesters and labeling parents as “domestic terrorists,” it is clear Democrats have absolutely no qualms with using government force to attack those on the other side of the aisle.
Indeed, there has also been the problem of federal agencies trying to crack down on dissenting speech online when it comes to Democrats’ most favored narratives about elections, the COVID-19 pandemic, and other issues.
The corruption under Biden has been so prevalent that House Republicans have formed their own committee to investigate the weaponization of the government.
Folks like Schiff and Lofgren know they are in no danger of facing politically motivated prosecutions, but they spew this garbage as a way of shaping public opinion by painting Trump as a vindictive dictator. Or, perhaps they know they have skeletons in the closet and are preempting any possible prosecutions coming their way
Maybe it’s a bit of both.
However, it is abundantly clear that Biden is the one seeking to use the force of the state to advance Democrats’ political agenda. In this charged political environment, it is rather ironic that Democrats are even playing this game. The notion that they actually fear retaliation from the former president only brings Biden’s corruption back into the light. If these folks genuinely want to address the weaponization of government, perhaps they should start in their own tent first.
Their Paranoid and crazy and out of their minds something Liberals are notorious for
That’s not to says some of those pieces of shit shouldn’t be prosecuted. Schiff is one, for sure, along with Garland, Mayorkas and, of course, the kind hearted yet forgetful gentleman that stole classified documents, peddled influence and sold out the American people to benefit his foreign energy investments.
04/06/24 – Donald Trump is demanding a new judge just days before the start of his hush-money criminal trial –
9 days and counting…
Why would anyone not want to have a biased, dishonest, corrupt, lying judge removed from their case?
Why are Democrats registering illegal immigrants to vote?
04/05/24 – Former Trump officials are among the most vocal opponents of returning him to the White House –
It’s pretty easy to judge Trump by his performance as President, which was the exact opposite of Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden’s disastrous failure. That’s what the nation needs and what we true Americans want.

Trump’s whole time in office was a “performance”. His rallies are a “performance”. He was bad reality TV with horribly real consequences. He destabilized a 247-year-old democracy and will finish it off if given a chance.
Trump: 4 years of growing civil unrest, culminating in a violent attempt to steal an election he lost by an overwhelming margin.
Growing civil unrest, who exactly was responsible for that? Who started the violence at the Capitol?
?w=1280
Where is that evidence of Trump being a Putin tool?
Was George Floydd an ideal model for African Americans?
Who defunded the Police?
How many Murders were done at BLM protests by the Protestors.
Could peaceful prayer gatherings be done without Antifa showing up?
Calling riots mostly peaceful with burning buildings in the background not showing the looting of innocent business owners with BLM signs on the doors?
Nov 19, 2020Prosecutors declined to pursue many of the cases because they concluded the protesters were exercising their basic civil rights. Sure freedom of speech turning over cop cars and arson.
What was the Pelosi led congress response?
Kamala Harris said that riots will not and should not stop.
It began after Trump took office and ended once he was gone. His inflammatory rhetoric brought it on. He also triggered January 6. If reelected, he’ll need an army of bodyguards, like Putin. America would become unrecognizable. I have no desire to see that happen to my homeland.
Right. It began when Trump was elected, before he took office, before he did anything. It continued at Trump’s inauguration, the last duly and lawfully elected President we’ve had. It continued, the leftists committing one violent act after another.
And you know what? If Trump is elected, it will happen again. The left are violent fascists that do not accept the rule of law or the power of the Constitution. The left are violent thugs, but I predict Trump’s reaction will be a bit different this go-round.
Who’s fault are the Hammas supporter’s uprisings, riots, shutdowns and attacks? Is that Trump’s, too? How about the hundreds of US citizens murdered by illegal immigrants?

Donald Trump and The Rule of Law are diametrically opposed concepts.
The lying bastard tried to overturn an election by disregarding constitutional law and process. You can only believe otherwise by denying reality.
Provide ONE verified example of Trump violating the law. Why are Democrats registering illegal immigrants to vote? THAT’S against the law.
They will be on full exhibit in upcoming trials, along with the evidence and testimony.
Trump does not seem to want this to happen. He’s spent millions in an effort to delay and derail. You’d think he would have more enthusiasm about getting on with it quickly and clearing his name. Especially with legal fees swallowing down cash like a black hole.
Of course, it’s other people’s money. And the truth could be political rat poison.
So… nothing. Not a damned thing. It’s just “Orange Man Bad” because he’s not a failed, destructive, incompetent, corrupt, America-hating leftist.
Why are Democrats registering illegal immigrants to vote?
Delusional, you have the memory of a mayfly.
State of emergency an eclipse, f’n retards
Get ready. They will call up blm and antifa so they can destroy private and public property like they did in 2020. democrat playbook.
When did theses riots begin?
I was wondering, can they use those scarves to keep warm in the DC winters?
And who was committing the unrest? Why, the violent, terroristic left, of course. That’s not Trump’s fault the left are violent crybabies and leftist governments in cities and states won’t put the violent leftist terrorists down.
Why are Democrats registering illegal immigrants to vote?
His performance was energy independence, low energy costs, no new wars, historic peace deals, trade deals, a secure border, global respect, low inflation, high labor participation, lots of GOOD jobs. How does Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden, the incompetent, corrupt, treasonous pedophile compare? Well, he’s a total failure and disaster in all aspects.
Why are Democrats registering illegal immigrants to vote?
I’m already voting for Trump, no need to sweeten the pot
Maybe they shouldnt do things that they should be arrested for. They could always flee the country.
Let’s get a few of them to turn state’s evidence and get to the real culprits.
Next time they say conservatives are crazy whip this out
Oh, they’ll simply agree. They’ve pulled out all the stops in inventing reasons to hate Trump in light of his great success as President and Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden abysmal failure.
04/03/24 – Trump protest vote warnings – Vote share in select presidential primaries – In 10 recent primary contests, more than one-quarter of GOP primary voters cast a ballot for a non-Trump candidate.
Early voting they did not switch vote to Biden they wont for the general election.
Biden has united the country they all believe he sucks
Many have stated that they will. Former members of his own administration have said that they will, so don’t pretend there’s been “a stolen election” when it happens.
More have switched to GOP the democrat base is shattered. They are not fans of Trump then they open their bills and look at the grocery reciepts.
Dont be delusional tell us 1 thing Biden touched that has improved.
Why are Democrats registering illegal immigrants to vote?
biden is by far the worst of the worst ever. He owns that distinction.
