Equal Treatment?
The the editor:
Was it ironic or perfect timing that I read in the Fayette County Record on Good Friday the title of a letter “Apply the Law Equally?” To every Christian, Good Friday is the anniversary of the Biblical account of the arrest, torture and abuse of Jesus – a perfect example of the opposite of applying the law equally.
Has there ever been throughout human history equal application of human law? I wonder what our country would look like if those who made law equally applied it.
Bill Clinton paid over half a million dollars to Paula Jones for sex, outside of marriage, but his lawyer’s office was not raided nor were his fan club dissatisfied or disillusioned.
According to PolitiFact, “investors with business connections to Russia donated $4 million to the Clinton Foundation.” “There is no evidence that Trump accepted political contributions from the Russian government.”
However, because of rumors, lies, intimidation and false testimony (aka. the Steele dossier), Trump was investigated instead of Hillary, and has been “ordered to pay legal fees to a company founded by the author of the Steele dossier.” Did you know Christopher Steele once ran the Russia desk for Britain’s Secret Intelligence Service, MI6?
Evidence continues to pile up against Biden and his son, Hunter, but will the law be applied to them as it has been applied to Trump? We’re supposed to accept Biden as “an elderly man with a poor memory.” If that is the case, classified documents in his garage should not surprise us. However, we should carefully consider whether he is able to make decisions a President must make? Should he be in the White House as Commander in Chief?
Charles ‘Cully’ Stimson, Deputy Director of the Edwin Meese III Center for Legal and Judicial Studies, Manager of the National Security Law Program, delivered a speech titled “Rogue Prosecutors and the Rise of Crime” on March 11, 2024 that was published in the March 2024 issue of Imprimis, a publication of Hillsdale College.
The subject of the speech is “what happens when members of the state’s executive branches refuse to execute the laws of the land.” In his speech, Mr. Stimson reports the “gatekeepers of the criminal justice system” did their job until “the launching of the George Soros-funded ‘progressive prosecutor’ movement” in 2015. Mr. Cully states, “The sick irony of this movement is that in the areas where it has prevailed, the most harm has been done to the racial minorities and whose interests it purposes to represent.”
