TWO TIERED SYSTEM OF JUSTICE OR UNEQUAL PROTECTION UNDER THE LAW

The purpose of this rant is to call out the hypocrisy on the right about our two tiered system of justice. Just like when I called out Rush a couple years ago about his Pollyannish, naive position that DOJ is an independent organization above partisan politics. Nothing could be further from the truth. As has been stated repeatedly, DOJ Is part of the Executive Branch and therefore is an arm of the president. Eric Holder and Merrick Garland ought to make you see that clearly, but let’s don’t forget Tricky Dick Nixon and his Saturday Night Massacre. The reason the right gets upset is because the left is more openly and brazenly political and the fake news media supports it. Unfortunately the right tries to pretend they are above the fray with folks like Sessions and Barr. One thing, among many, Bongino gets right for sure is that most Republicans are really Democrats and no Democrats are Republicans.

Now the reason for this rant is that I am calling out Bongino and Tucker and Hannity and Ingraham and Gutfeld and Dershowitz and Levin for their false narrative about our two tiered system of justice. Listen let me be clear, there is a two or more system of justice in this country. My problem with the folks above is that they are pretending that this is something new. People there is now and always has been a two tiered system of justice in this country and I defy anyone on my list, including Dershowitz and Levin, the two most knowledgeable people on that list, to tell me when in the history of this country there has ever been a single tiered system of justice. Go ahead I’ll wait!

For much of our history and even today, poor people have never had a fair shot in our criminal justice system. For much of our history poor people and blacks in the south had no right to counsel. Yes the Sixth Amendment guarantees that you have the right to counsel but that didn’t mean you had the right to counsel paid for by the government. If you couldn’t afford an attorney you didn’t get one. And just so you know, the sixth amendment only applied to the federal government and federal criminal cases until Gideon v. Wainwright in 1963 when the Supremes made it applicable to states in felony cases. And the vast majority of criminal prosecutions are state not federal prosecutions.

Do any of you believe that OJ would have been acquitted if he was represented by a public defender juggling fifty cases instead of Johnny Cochran and F. Lee Bailey and the rest of the dream team?

Listen our system has always been been administered by the golden rule —. He who has the gold makes the rules. And the politically powerful have always been immune from the rules and laws that apply to the rest of us.

The problem that these people really have is that Dems openly exploit their power and republicans are pussies. Give up with pretending that there is now some new two tiered system of justice It has always existed. Recognize and admit that you are really upset Dems use their power and republicans suck up for cocktail party invites.
