“This only invites more prosecutions of political enemies,” Mike Davis, president of the Article III Project, a conservative advocacy group, told The Washington Times. “Democrats have crossed the Rubicon on this type of political prosecution, and it’s simply not a door that can be shut in this age of revenge politics.”
While Mr. Trump faces up to 136 years in prison if convicted of falsifying business records to cover up hush money paid in 2016, Republicans are calling for a stronger investigation of the Biden family’s lucrative foreign business schemes and Mr. Biden’s potential involvement.
