Trump court victories tempered by Biden admin’s persistent weaponization

In June of last year Biden told the press that “I have never once, not one single time, suggested to the Justice Department what they should do or not do relative to bringing a charge, or not bring a charge. I’m honest,” he finished.

But in at least three of the cases against Trump, Biden and DOJ involvement have been clearly shown to have occurred.

The latest case to go in Trump’s favor was the conspiracy case brought by Fulton County, Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis. The case alleges that then-President Trump led a conspiracy to overturn the 2020 presidential election in Georgia.

The ruling came from the Georgia court of appeals, where the court ruled 2-1 last week that Willis must be removed from the case, along with her entire staff that worked on it. The indictment, however, did not go away completely, as the court left it on the table so that another prosecutor could possibly take over the case.

The motion in the case against Willis accused her of having “an improper, clandestine personal relationship during the pendency of this case, which has resulted in the special prosecutor, and, in turn, the district attorney, profiting significantly from this prosecution at the expense of the taxpayers.”

A judge previously determined that the affair she had with the person she appointed as special prosecutor, Nathan Wade, created an “appearance of impropriety,” forcing Wade to resign.

The court found that Wade stepping down from the case failed to “address the appearance of impropriety,” so they disqualified Willis but upheld the indictment against Trump and his remaining co-defendants.

Special counsel Jack Smith filed a motion to dismiss the case accusing Trump of attempting to overturn the 2020 presidential election results through his actions leading up to and on January 6, 2021. This motion was granted by U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan, who dismissed the case without prejudice, meaning it can be refiled once Trump leaves office.

Earlier in the week Judge Juan Merchan rejected Trump’s argument that the Supreme Court’s decision on presidential immunity earlier this year had nullified his criminal case in New York, upholding his 34-count felony conviction for falsifying business records to cover up a sex scandal. So instead of throwing the case out, Merchan is leaving it to hang over the upcoming term until Trump leaves office. By the way, this is a case that had been passed on more than once, including by this very same district attorney’s office, and should also have been tossed or at least had this judge recuse himself for a financial conflict of interest. This decision to keep the case open will obviously be appealed and almost certainly overturned.

In the ABC defamation case, Stephanopoulos was said to be livid over the fact that the network settled with Trump even though he had been warned repeatedly by a producer of his show to not use the word “rape” in discussing what Trump had been found civilly liable for. He was said to be “apoplectic” and “humiliated,” over the settlement. The settlement was for $16 million to be paid to Trump’s presidential library and to cover his legal fees.

In one other case against trump, the civil fraud judgment against Trump for supposedly providing banks with false evaluations on certain properties, he was ordered to pay a $454 million judgment. He has appealed the ruling, and according to Fox News, “judges on a New York appeals court seemed receptive to potentially reversing the judgment altogether.”

Trump is definitely on a roll, but the Biden weaponized system of justice continues to keep its thumb on the scale of justice. Hopefully the next Attorney General, most likely Florida AG Pam Bondi, will return the DOJ to its historic mission of blind justice.

But in the meantime, on Friday the House Select Committee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government released its two-year, 17,000-page report uncovering the Biden administration’s censorship, FBI whistleblower retaliation, and politicization of the nation’s top law enforcement and intelligence agencies, according to Just the News.
