🚨BREAKING

🚨BILL and HILLARY CLINTON..

They are demanding accommodations they never offered to anyone else because accountability was always meant for other people. When Republicans were subpoenaed, there was no courtesy, no flexibility, no patience.

There was jail.
There were contempt charges.
There was pretrial punishment dressed up as process.

Flynn was crushed financially and legally. Bannon was imprisoned for defying the same type of congressional demand. No one asked about time limits. No one negotiated formats. No one allowed voluntary interviews instead of sworn depositions.

Now the tables turn…and suddenly the language changes.

Now subpoenas are treated as suggestions. Now sworn testimony is inconvenient. Now four hours is too much. Now opposing transcripts are necessary. Now delay is framed as cooperation. This is not a legal argument. This is an entitlement argument. It is the belief that certain people exist above the enforcement layer of the system they weaponized against others.

Equal protection under the law does not mean immunity for the powerful. It means the same rules applied without fear or favor.

If defying Congress was jailable then, it is jailable now.

If depositions under oath were mandatory then, they are mandatory now.
The law does not bend based on party, pedigree, or proximity to power.

They are not asking for fairness. They are asking for exemption.

And that request alone tells you everything.

And there it is.

Democrats act like children, ever pushing the envelope, testing the limits. Hold the line. Don't give in, because what works with one tantrum will be repeated ten times over before the boundary is established.

Truth. The leftists will continue to throw their tantrums until they are held accountable...unfortunately, boundaries for them are few and far between.

I wish they would just hold their breath until they turned blue and passed out.

At least that option would be quieter.

This will set the stage for what happens with Pelosi, Schummer, and the rest of the J6 lie.

[Wingnut]

It's like 1998 all over. Bill will lie.  He always lies. 

"I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky."

"I never told anybody to lie, not a single time, never."

"These allegations are false and I need to get back to work for the American people."

His lesbian wife will be right by his side....again.

Democrats.  Opposing Equal Protection since the 1830s.
