    Former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, who recently left the Democratic Party and declared herself an independent, torched President Joe Biden over the prosecution of former President Donald Trump.

    Gabbard made the comments during a Friday appearance on Fox News' "Hannity," arguing that Biden was using the federal government to take out his primary political opponent.

    "A death rattle of any democracy is when a sitting president uses that state security apparatus to go after political opponents and cover up lies and crimes committed by himself or his family. Biden is doing that now," she said. "His actions make it clear he believes himself to be not the enforcer of the rule of law but the exception to it."

    "Let's start with the vision that our founders had for this country, which is that we would be a nation of laws, not of men," she told host Sean Hannity. "But every single day we see more and more evidence coming out about how President Biden and his administration are politicizing the Department of Justice to serve their own personal and political interests ahead of the interests of the country."

    "We can recognize that they are directly and intentionally undermining that very foundation of our democracy which is the rule of law," Gabbard continued.

    The former congresswoman - who ran for president in 2020 - went on to lay out how exactly the Biden administration was undermining the system: first, they were going directly after former President Trump and his supporters; and second, they were taking actions to insulate and protect themselves, specifically Joe Biden and his embattled son Hunter Biden.


    "The American people need to recognize very clearly what is happening here, the threat to our democracy and we have to make the decision to put a stop to this, to not allow this to go on," she added. "Because otherwise, we'll find ourselves in a situation in the United States of America where this is now the new norm. Whatever party becomes the party in power will say, 'Hey, look, the last guy did this. We can use the power of law enforcement, we can use our Department of Justice to go after political opponents."

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.

After nearly 8 months of the United States House of Representatives' Oversight Committee hearings, House Speaker Mike Johnson is pursuing an Impeachment Inquiry into the strong allegations of Bribery, Influence Peddling, Money laundering and possible Treason regarding the Biden Family Shell Corporations' business dealings with foreign nations that are adversarial to our survival: Is it prudent and wise for the Republican controlled U.S. House to investigate this Democratic Socialist President?

  No, Democratics should never be investigated because they are so superior to their Republican counterparts, and care so much more.

  Yes, in a Constitutional Republic, bound by the Rule of Law, no one is above the law, and that law must be applied evenly.

  Not sure ... Now, what got all this started?

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.
