The Spoils of Lawfare

Tomorrow the Mark Steyn Caribbean Cruise sets sail from Florida through the British West Indies to Mexico. To be honest, between the University of Vermont Medical Center and the District of Columbia Superior Court, I haven't felt entirely safe in the United States in recent months, so I shall breathe a sigh of relief once we're in international waters.

Meanwhile, Dr Russ Jackson explains it all:

Ever noticed how right-wingers who claim they are 'the victim of a political witch hunt' are among the most horrible, cruel, selfish, deliberately offensive, pompous, condescending, divisive, bigoted, pig-ignorant attention-seeking ideologically extreme lying sociopaths on earth? pic.twitter.com/zjzYAZN3Rv — GET A GRIP (@docrussjackson) February 22, 2024

~The degeneration of "a land of laws" into a land beyond law continues. It is good to see Newt Gingrich weigh in on this, because far too many top-rank Republicans appear to have accepted the Governor of New York's assurance that once Trump is beggared and gaoled everything will go back to normal. Newt writes:

The concept of a fraud trial with no victims, no complaints, and no money lost is an example of political prosecution in disguise. The punitive scale is astonishing. According to The New York Times, there is a $450 million fine (which must be paid to enter the appeals process). Further, the President and his two sons are exiled from doing business in New York for three years – and no New York banks can lend money to pay or post a bond during the appeal.
