Politicized Prosecutions Are A Warning Shot Across The Bow For All Americans
BY: ROBERT HENNEKE
FEBRUARY 27, 2024
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul knows she has spooked her state’s business community. That’s why she went on a talk show last week to calm their very legitimate fears that they would be next. If former President Donald Trump can be prosecuted and fined hundreds of millions of dollars for a common business practice, who is safe?
Hochul said New Yorkers are generally “honest people, and they’re not trying to hide their assets and they’re following the rules… This judge determined that Donald Trump did not follow the rules.” Hence the $355 million fine levied by the court.
But the truth is Trump engaged in a common business practice for developers. As “Shark Tank” star Kevin O’Leary noted in a Fox News interview, “Forget about Trump, every single real estate developer everywhere on Earth does this. They always talk about their asset being worth a lot, and the bank says no. That’s just the way it is.”
The broader effect of such politicized prosecutions is clear — Americans are increasingly convinced we live in a nation with a two-tiered justice system.
“The trend has underlined the prosecutorial temptation to crusading self-righteousness,” The Washington Post’s Jason Willick pointed out recently.
“The people charged with enforcing federal law seem to thrill at finding new ways to prosecute politically unsympathetic people who have behaved badly, even when their behavior wasn’t clearly illegal.”
That includes Americans like Daniel Penny, the young man prosecuted for murder for defending a subway car full of passengers from a mentally ill homeless man who threatened them, while the illegal immigrants who attacked an NYPD officer on the subway were released without bail.
This affirms what Americans learned from the prosecution of Trump for the alleged mishandling of classified documents, while Biden (like Hillary Clinton before him) got a pass for the same thing. And the list goes on.
What’s more, even the judge in the Trump case acknowledged that there were no victims and that every party in the deal brought to trial by New York Attorney General Letitia James made a profit. He also noted that “it is undisputed that defendants have made all required payments on time.”
In their desperation to sideline Trump, and anyone else who challenges the leftist narrative, Democrats are ripping up what philosopher John Locke described as the “social contract.”

As the American Bar Association explains, “The rule of law functions because most of us agree that it is important to observe the law, even if a police officer is not present to enforce it. Our agreement as citizens to obey the law to maintain our social order is sometimes described as an essential part of the social contract.”
But what happens when government lets down its side? The U.S. Supreme Court has warned us about this repeatedly.
“There can be no free society without law administered through an independent judiciary,” the high court ruled in a 1947 case. “If one man can be allowed to determine for himself what is law, every man can. That means first chaos, then tyranny.”
Locke himself warned about this; “where there is no law, there is no freedom.”
Our two-tiered justice system is a far greater threat to our democracy than Trump or any size basket of deplorables.
“Political prosecutions are a danger, but so is overcharging by ambitious, media-savvy prosecutors whose main interest is their own advancement and notoriety,” added The Washinton Post’s Willick. “Americans might need to worry more about the propensity of prosecutors to deprive the public of honest services when they stretch the limits of the law.”
Gov. Hochul tried to soothe her state’s business community with assurances that other real estate developers need not worry about receiving the Trump treatment. But it’s tyranny when our liberty relies on the whims of a government official.

Don't think the US has a two-tiered system of justice? Think again!!!
In a move that baffles the mind, the judge, without any concrete evidence, has suggested that Trump might be guilty of an alleged “rape” that supposedly occurred in a department store dressing room decades ago.
But the plot thickens when we take a deep dive into the judge’s political leanings, which have recently come to light, unveiling a web of potential political bias. Remarkably, this is the same judge appointed by Bill Clinton, of all womanizing people, who had previously dismissed charges against the notoriously controversial Prince Andrew. Andrew faced accusations from Jeffrey Epstein’s victims of horrific acts involving minors. These women bravely came forward with firsthand accounts of their ordeals, providing details that are compelling and impossible to dismiss as mere political vendettas. The difference in judicial reactions casts yet another disturbing light on the non-stop corruption within our system. This is a very concerning scenario that challenges us to seriously question the integrity of our legal system and the unseen forces and bribes that are likely shaping its decisions.

Does town hall, city council, county seat, state capital, DC, Federal Reserve, Global economy suggest there are a couple more tiers?Buffalo » 28 Feb 2024, 12:23 pm » wrote: ↑ Don't think the US has a two-tiered system of justice? Think again!!!
Legality, morality, ethics, social consensus, add just a few more?
Can 5 generation gaps sharing the same rotation of the planet with ancestries never same ancestor passing through each generation every added generation never same person twice show why?

Did I just count 7 tiers?31stArrival » 28 Feb 2024, 1:21 pm » wrote: ↑ Does town hall, city council, county seat, state capital, DC, Federal Reserve, Global economy suggest there are a couple more tiers?

Again lets bring the title of this thread back into our conversation.
My first post was to critique the use of the last word Americans when all done to americans is done by one species within its own ancestral lineages populating space now.
9 gates to eternal hell you dipstick. Understanding one's personal time adapting to occupying space in series parallel time is equivalent to 31st arrival to one's own family tree replacing the 30 people that were each separate great great grandchild's genetic makeup from previous 4 generation gaps from my own lineages goes back almost 110 years before I was conceived. I added over 70 years to that.
Genetics are timed apart as eternally separated cycles of reproduction linked since inception of the species intellectual history didn't record every generation gap but every generation gap adopted ideas now isn't eternity.

If you haven't notice, I am the only one describing life as actually evolving in real time. I am physically experiencing it myself. Everyone else is governing faiths directing tomorrows results only adapt as displaced forward here now in anything else is possible and it isn't possible to only be living genetically eternally evolving apart now.
Everything is uniquely here changing form never sme shape that doesn't create or destroy energy converted between universal positions and ancestral time displaced...
