🚨 The corporate media is pushing a mass propaganda campaign alleging that Donald Trump is an authoritarian overlooking key facts about Joe Biden’s political history.
Joe Biden, not Trump, proudly claimed credit for drafting the Patriot Act and the 1994 Crime Bill.
The Patriot Act is widely criticized as one of the most profound encroachments on constitutional rights in American history.
It expanded warrantless wiretapping, eroded civil liberties, and unconstitutionally harnessed the U.S. government’s surveillance capabilities against its own citizens.
Biden’s 1994 Crime Bill, touted as the largest in history, allocated nearly $10 billion to federal prisons.
Its policies contributed to the U.S. hosting over 20% of the world’s prison population despite comprising only 5% of the global populace.
The legislation, infamous for the three-strike provision and mandatory minimums, disproportionately targeted impoverished minorities, creating the mass incarceration Democrats now complain about.
There are videos documenting Hunter Biden committing the crimes that his father incarcerated millions of Americans for.
Moreover, Biden is the first U.S. President in history to oversee his own Department of Justice prosecuting the leading opposition party’s presidential frontrunner.
What’s more authoritarian than prosecuting the opposition party’s leading presidential candidate?
Furthermore, Joe Biden was the Democrat Senator most responsible for starting the Iraq War, and as Vice President, he was in the White House while the U.S. started wars in Syria, Libya, and Yemen.
In contrast, Trump’s presidency was the first time in 40 years that the U.S. did not get involved in a new war.
Trump didn’t write the Patriot Act or the 1994 Crime Bill.
Instead, he signed a landmark bipartisan criminal justice reform initiative into law, the First Step Act, which reversed some of Joe Biden’s harsh sentencing practices, particularly for nonviolent drug offenders.
When objectively scrutinized, there is nothing that Trump did that was more authoritarian than Biden’s Patriot Act, his 1994 Crime Bill, his prosecution of his leading political opponent, or his role in starting wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, and Yemen.
