The Accelerating PurgeBuckle up, America. This only gets worse from here.

One week after a team of thugs working for Democratic Party activist Stephen Colbert were arrested for illegally entering a Capitol building in order to record themselves stalking Republican congressional leaders, news coverage of the incident has all but disappeared. Neither the U.S. Capitol Police, the arresting agency, nor the Department of Justice has produced any details of the gang’s unauthorized incursion into two Capitol buildings with the blessing of Representative Adam Schiff (R-Calif.) and two other Democratic House members.
It appears the Capitol Police chief has not yet responded to a demand by Reps. James Jordan (R-Ohio) and Rodney Davis (R-Ill.) for all footage, photographs, and witness statements documenting the crew’s activities on June 16 including accusations they banged on the doors of female legislators such as Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.); it further appears that no one is demanding a congressional ethics investigation into Schiff’s participation in leading a “tour” of Colbert’s insurrectionists through the buildings, including after hours. Following a brief detainment, Colbert’s thugs went home, spared pre-dawn raids by armed FBI agents and days, if not months, of incarceration while a federal judge determines whether they should stay behind bars awaiting trial.
In fact, Colbert’s insurrectionists will avoid the kangaroo court known as the D.C. District Court overseeing hundreds of similar charges related to the January 6 protest on Capitol Hill. Fox News reported on Thursday that the defendants associated with Colbert’s show will appear in D.C. Superior Court in late July. (The court’s website contains no information about the case.) Simply put, every January 6 case is handled as a federal crime while the conduct of Team Colbert is considered a local offense, even though it occurred in the exact same venue.
Trump supporters who protested Joe Biden’s election are branded terrorists by Joe Biden’s Justice Department and treated accordingly; Trump foes who harass Republican lawmakers and mock the families of January 6 detainees in public are considered “comedians” by the same set of prosecutors, then let off the hook for engaging in more threatening behavior than most who participated in the Capitol protest.
That wasn’t the only example this week of the double standard of justice in Joe Biden’s America.
On the same day Fox News disclosed that Colbert’s producers would get preferential Beltway treatment for pals of the regime, the FBI arrested Daniel “Hatchet” Speed, a Navy reservist and January 6 protester, on four misdemeanors: entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly conduct in a Capitol building, and parading, demonstrating, or picketing in a Capitol building.
Nothing Speed is accused of doing on January 6 is worse than what Colbert’s crew did on June 16.
