American Secretary of State Antony Blinken recently issued
a tweet condemning Russia’s prosecution of opposition leader
Aleksey Navalny. On August 4th, a Russian court convicted Navalny on
charges of “extremism” and sentenced him to 19 years in prison. This was one
day after former (and possibly future) President Donald Trump was
arraigned in federal court on transparently bogus charges related to his
questioning the legitimacy of the 2020 presidential election and his role in the
Capitol riot of Jan. 6, 2021.
Incredibly, Blinken tweeted: "The United States
strongly condemns Russia’s conviction of opposition leader Aleksey Navalny on
politically motivated charges. The Kremlin cannot silence the truth. Navalny
should be released." He must have giggled to himself after posting this.
He should have added “#hypocrisy #chutzpah.”
The Biden administration in its entirety, including
the DOJ, CIA, FBI, and various other now rogue and weaponized federal agencies,
has been diligently trying to convict and imprison Trump since the day Biden
took office.
Blinken’s missive is akin to Hitler chastising the
U.S. for mistreating Jews. It’s as if Jefferson Davis wrote to Abraham Lincoln urging
him to treat Black folks with the fairness and dignity they deserve. It would
be like Teddy Kennedy cautioning Ronald Reagan to “drive sober.”
The Biden administration acts more like a junta than
a duly elected assemblage of “public servants” acting in the best interests of
the citizens they allegedly serve. Its members no longer feel the need to hide
their lust for power, their disdain for democratic processes and the non-elites
in flyover country-- or their confidence in believing they have successfully
rigged national elections for the foreseeable future.
