Daily Verse | Isaiah 57:21
“There is no peace,” says my God, “for the wicked.”
Tuesday’s Reading: Isaiah 58-59
It’s Tuesday and Monday, August 8, may very well go down in history as the defining moment that irreversibly destroyed our nation.
The unprecedented, unannounced raid on President Donald J. Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home by our politicized law enforcement agencies drives home the reality that we no longer live in a country governed by equality under the law, but in a tin-pot dictatorship led by a corrupt cabal of powerful elitists who rule by selective intimidation and force.
There is no difference between what happened yesterday and the activities of the KGB in the former Soviet Union. This is all about destroying the political enemies of those in power.
Are our Norms now restored? Are the Adults back in charge? Are we happy with our current State of Affairs?
Here’s the Trumped-Up Charges that the FBI is angling to stick Trump with (my emphasis):
Early reports that the F.B.I. search of former President Donald J. Trump’s residence in Florida related to an investigation into whether he had unlawfully taken government files when he left the White House focused attention on an obscure criminal law barring removal of official records. The penalties for breaking that law include disqualification from holding any federal office.
Because Mr. Trump is widely believed to be preparing to run for president again in 2024, that unusual penalty raised the prospect that he might be legally barred from returning to the White House.
Specifically, the law in question — Section 2071 of Title 18 of the United States Code — makes it a crime if someone who has custody of government documents or records “willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, falsifies or destroys” them.
If convicted, defendants can be fined or sentenced to prison for up to three years. In addition, the statute says, if they are currently in a federal office, they “shall forfeit” that office, and they shall “be disqualified from holding any office under the United States.”
On its face, then, if Mr. Trump were to be charged and convicted of removing, concealing or destroying government records under that law, he would seem to be ineligible to become president again.
This is today’s FBI: find some obscure law and conduct an illegal daylight raid to accuse a political opponent of a crime that would put them in prison for three years and disqualify them from ever holding any office in the United States.
How conVEEEEnient!
Funny how political persecution seems to only go one way in this country: against conservatives and Republicans.
This event will please the progressive Left and anger the conservative and, perhaps moderate, Right. This seems like a violation of decency and precedent. Donald J. Trump, while he has his faults, has endured more political persecution for the last 7 years than any other president. And he’s not even in office anymore, for peetsake!
Still, they persisted.
The forces arrayed against him include the unelected bureaucrats in the U.S. government, the Deep State operatives that infest our unelected alphabet agencies, the Democrat mouthpieces known as the Lame Stream Media, and any number of institutions that are saturated by cultural Marxists. In fact, they all worked together to “fortify” the 2020 presidential election against DJT and literally bragged about it in a national magazine.
Trump is, as usual, unbowed (Truth Social account necessary).
Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States of America
These are dark times for our Nation, as my beautiful home, Mar-A-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, is currently under siege, raided, and occupied by a large group of FBI agents. Nothing like this has ever happened to a President of the United States before. After working and cooperating with the relevant Government agencies, this unannounced raid on my home was not necessary or appropriate. It is prosecutorial misconduct, the weaponization of the Justice System, and an attack by Radical Left Democrats who desperately don’t want me to run for President in 2024, especially based on recent polls, and who will likewise do anything to stop Republicans and Conservatives in the upcoming Midterm Elections. Such an assault could only take place in broken, Third-World Countries. Sadly, America has now become one of those Countries, corrupt at a level not seen before. They even broke into my safe! What is the difference between this and Watergate, where operatives broke into the Democrat National Committee? Here, in reverse, Democrats broke into the home of the 45th President of the United States.
The political persecution of President Donald J. Trump has been going on for years, with the now fully debunked Russia, Russia, Russia Scam, Impeachment Hoax #1, Impeachment Hoax #2, and so much more, it just never ends. It is political targeting at the highest level!
Hillary Clinton was allowed to delete and acid wash 33,000 E-mails AFTER they were subpoenaed by Congress. Absolutely nothing has happened to hold her accountable. She even took antique furniture, and other items from the White House.
I stood up to America’s bureaucratic corruption, I restored power to the people, and truly delivered for our Country, like we have never seen before. The establishment hated it. Now, as they watch my endorsed candidates win big victories, and see my dominance in all polls, they are trying to stop me, and the Republican Party, once more. The lawlessness, political persecution, and Witch Hunt must be exposed and stopped.
I will continue to fight for the Great American People!
What makes this so maddening is the clear double-standards that are in place. Hillary Clinton, James Comey, John Brennan, Lois Lerner, Hunter Biden, Joe Biden, Adam Schiff, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer and dozens more hive scum in Washington D.C. break laws and skate all the time.
We all see it. The risk here is that this (intentional) provocation could send the Deplorables over the edge and we could have another January 6 event, which would give the bastards the justification to crack down even more. (Although, the way it’s going, I’ll bet in the not-too-distant future they won’t even search for a justification—they’ll just crack down to “prevent” some made-up crisis they tell us they’re averting.)
Don’t react.
Instead, stay calm.
And keep your powder dry.
Then vote for Donald J. Trump in 2024 as a giant rebuke to the out-of-control government leviathan.
