Democrats have weaponized our schools and our judicial system. The solution is obvious, just ugly, but it will be solved sooner rather than later.
We need to find a way to fix it. Because it is very broken at all levels.
I don't know how to do it, but the legal culture of "just win for your client" is toxic. Lawyers on both sides should be trying to find the truth and punish the guilty. I see no benefit to a system where a defense attorney knows their client is a terribly guilty person and yet tries to get them off scot-free. That's bad. And attorneys who engage in lawfare should be disbarred.
This is nothing against the governor, but it’s a crappy article. I searched in vain for any mention of what the governor is being accused of, or why the accusations are false. This fails the basic test of the “Five W’s” of journalism.
The prosecutor admitted in court that she brought the indictment without the evidence to win the case. In fact, in open court, she had to beg and plead with the judge for more time to gather the facts
The quisling judge should have dismissed with prejudice at this point, found the Prosecutor in Contempt of Court, Sanctioned $10,000 and Remanded for 30 days with a Referral for Criminal Prosecution and Permanent Disbarment.
The dems used the “legal” system to stymie and then destroy Palin in Alaska AFTER the 2008 election. They filed a blizzard of lawsuits and “ethics” complaints in an effort to bankrupt her family, and keep her from actually governing the state.
If this is true, then if the judge was honorable, he/she would have put a stop to the case at that hearing.
Travis county DA tried to do a similar thing to Rick Perry.
The Dems also used this tactic on Tom DeLay and in the infamous “John Doe” case in Wisconsin against Gov. Walker supporters. It has gotten to be such a familiar tactic by Dems that it is called “Lawfare” (using the Law as an instrument of warfare against your political opponents).
Not many Americans understand that there weren't armies of full-time public persecutors at every level of government for many many decades after the Founding.
