Ready For Impeachment, Take 2?


For John, BLUFMr Roger Stone is not someone to be admired, but he is an American Citizen and thus deserving of equal treatment before the law.  Nothing to see here; just move along.




From PJ Media, by Ms Megan Fox, 12 February 2020.

Here is the lede plus one:

Just when you thought America's long impeachment drama was over and behind us, the Democrats have begun the process to do it again.  While most of us believed they would try to repeat impeachment, we thought it would start in the second term and not a mere week after Trump was acquitted the first time.

But Nancy Pelosi is hot under the collar about Trump tweeting about the absurdly long sentence that Deep State prosecutors suggested for Roger Stone.  The president tweeted out a storm of criticism when the news broke that prosecutors were recommending nine years in prison.

The whole story about Mr Roger Stone is about someone who did wrong, but was treated by the Federal Government like he was an armed terrorist who should be punished to the full extent of the law.  Comparing his treatment to the treatment of others calls into question the ability of the Department of Justice to administer equal justice, and the ability of Congress to provide reasonable oversight.  Either House.

Hat tip to the InstaPundit.
