    President Joe Biden was slammed by Republicans for "fundraising off the weaponization of justice" after he posted a 2024 campaign pitch asking for donations as former President Donald Trump was being processed at a jail in Georgia.

    Trump was processed in Fulton County jail Thursday evening shortly after 7:30 p.m. EST, where he had a mugshot taken and posted his $200,000 bond. The former president is facing 13 felony charges for his actions in the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election. Around the time he was being booked, Biden's account posted a request for donations on X.

    "Apropos of nothing, I think today's a great day to give to my campaign," Biden said.

    Biden was widely condemned by Republican officials and conservative commentators, who said the president was using the arrest of his political rival to raise money.

    "Biden celebrates the weaponization of the justice system against his political enemies by asking for campaign contributions," the House Freedom Caucus said. "When government funding runs out 9/30, Democrats want a shutdown instead of reforming the DOJ to go after real criminals instead of political witch hunts."

    Rep. Andy Ogles (R-TN) called the fundraising pitch from Biden "appalling."

    "Joe is openly asking people to reward him for trying to IMPRISON his political opposition. Wake up, folks. This is appalling," Ogles wrote.

    Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA) said Biden had turned the country into a "Banana Republic" and was "laughing about it."

    Sens. Rick Scott (R-FL) and Eric Schmidt (R-MO) also blasted Biden for the post.

    "[Joe Biden] pleads guilty to going after his political opponent," Scott said.

    "Totally not a political prosecution," Schmitt posted to X.

    "I think today is a great day to Make America Great Again ... And begin the process of firing you," Trump strategist Chris LaCivita said.

    "7:30pm? The same time of Trump's arrest? Biden is fundraising off the weaponization of justice against his leading political opponent," said Ryann McEnany, a brand communications strategist.

    "Look at the timing on this tweet: precisely the time set for Trump's arrest last night. Trump says that this is election interference; Biden says it isn't. This tweet is pretty good evidence Trump is right. Biden is now saying the quiet part out loud," Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro said.

    Trump posted on X for the first time since he was deplatformed at the end of his presidency, posting a picture of his mugshot with the words "Election Interference," "Never Surrender," and his campaign website address.

Was it a judicious ploy for Joe Biden's FBI to execute the unprecedented raid of President Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate?

  Yes; the Cheneys despise this former Republican president, and for good reason ... so they say.

  No; never has a former president been treated with this level of vindictive abuse by those temporarily in power.

  Who cares? It's Trump.

Considering what real news is available for all to witness, and in great specificity, should one pursue what is true outside of the channeled realm of the corrupt corporate /legacy media, and: Is Institutionalized Corruption real, and is it a hindrance to sustaining our Constitutional Republic now, and for future generations of American citizens?

In light of continued developments, primarily since 2008, there exists in these United States a Legal System which operates on a proved Two Tiered approach to justice rendered, which primarily benefits Democratic Elites and Woke Ideological Virtue Signalers, representing their co-dependent wards, to the expressed exclusion of normal hardworking American citizens: What is your suggestion in remedying this widespread injustice and, if not corrected, its existential outcome for our Constitutional Republic?

  Complete overhaul of the Department of Justice and their enforcers - the FBI - to reflect a far more honest justice system to keep patriots remaining calm.

  Disband the FBI, and request that congress investigate all unethical and non patriotic practices to partially right the wrongs of a distrusted and politically weaponized "Department of Justice."

  Continue with the current system since the two tiered justice system has been so remarkably beneficial to Democratic Socialist political hegemony; chronic distrust in institutions notwithstanding.
