And prosecute Mark Cuban while you're at it.
Is it just like me or does he have a face that says "uncharged sexual assaults"?
A grotesquely biased jury of Trump-haters, led by a judge who put service to his party above his judicial responsibilities, has returned guilty verdicts against Donald Trump on all 34 counts with which he was--absurdly--charged.
What this shows is that the most important variable in any case is who decides it. Here, the Democrats knew that they could impanel a rabidly anti-Trump jury in Manhattan, so they did so. It is very much like the lawsuit that Michael Mann brought against Mark Steyn and others, of which I observed some of the latter stages. The defendants were properly happy about how the trial had gone, but the facts didn't matter. The Democrats had chosen the right venue, Washington, D.C., and a biased jury found for Mann. Same thing here.
What to do now? First, it is now absolutely essential that Trump be elected president. The Democrats cannot be allowed to get away with this effort to turn America into a banana republic.
Second, the Democrats understand nothing except the raw exercise of power. Therefore, Republican attorneys general and district attorneys should bring criminal charges against Democratic officeholders wherever possible. No Democratic officeholder should be allowed to retire, in any jurisdiction with Republican law enforcement, without facing criminal charges. There can't be a single Democratic official in America against whom a criminal case can't be brought that is better than this case against Trump. It should be open season on Democrats in the criminal courts.
Third, the criminal prosecutions should begin with Joe Biden. Unlike Trump, Biden is actually a criminal. He is already known to be guilty under the federal bribery statute. If Trump wins in November, his Department of Justice should immediately indict Biden, and Biden should be hounded until the day he dies or goes to prison, whichever happens first.
That's a good start. He notes that some, like Biden, will have to be prosecuted on "their home turf," in a blue city like DC.
But why? Republicans need to get serious about passing a law guaranteeing both defendants and prosecutors the right to seek removal to a neutral jurisdiction in politically-charged cases. We cannot continue being hounded in blue city courts while serial Democratic lawbreakers are not even charged because Democratic juries would view them as "a well-meaning old man with memory issues."
He does suggest that Red States begin scanning their laws to see if any bribery cases against Joe or Hunter Biden (or Jim Biden, or the nieces and granddaughters) can be prosecuted in red state courts.
Sean Davis agrees -- and wants the GOP to stop scheming to give tax breaks to the corporations who have gladly enlisted in the Democrats' war on normal citizens:

If you're a Republican running for office, you can just go ahead and throw away all of your elegant little policy proposals for this or that corporate exclusion or tax subsidy. Give me a list of which Democrat officials you're going to put in prison, or get lost.
There's only one way to deal with nuclear war, which is what Democrats have unleashed, and that is mutually assured destruction. Democrats declared war on our entire system of justice and the rule of law, and our only options are victory or defeat. I intend to win. Do you?
Enough of the compromised fake Republicans at National Review and Commentary. Man up or get out.
One of my former law partners, a world class trial lawyer, when faced with an adversary who wanted to engage in unprofessional "hardball" litigation tactics would say, "I can play the game; just tell me the rules." The Democrats have made the rules, and their opponents will have little choice but to play the game.
This is not a game that can or will be played by one side only. The rules are now set. When Republicans have the chance, they will play the game. Many, perhaps most, will think that a response is mandatory and that "taking the high road" is no longer an option. Instead, it would be regarded by the "progressive" left -- that is to say those now in charge of the Democratic party -- as weakness if they roll over and fail to respond. This is an existential threat to the stability of our political system and nation. That risk makes this the most dangerous day in the history of the Country, at least in our lifetimes.
Henceforth, weaponization of the justice system against a political opponent will be the norm. Political grudges will be resolved by political opponents in cherry-picked courtrooms where conviction is most likely. All this confirms that when controlled by scoundrels, our judicial system is becoming more like what we expect in places like China, Cuba or Venezuela, where political opponents are routinely imprisoned or worse.
Meanwhile, polling doesn't look good for Biden.

We'll see if that changes. There's a poll that says that if Trump is convicted, Trump will lose a critical amount of support. Biden won't gain any support, but Trump will fall below Biden:
That's been a worry that some of us have had for a long time. We'll see if people really change their votes based on this evil political prosecution.
Nick Arama writes more on CNN's poll:
Enten then discussed what that might mean for the election. He said that if that shift held to the election, comparing it to 2020, Trump would win 291 electoral votes to Biden's 247. He said the reason why is that would shift Arizona, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Georgia to Trump.
This might explain, in part, why Trump has been leading in those battleground states.
"That alone would do it, " Enten explained, saying that's why black voters are so pivotal to Joe Biden's chances.
Boris Sanchez said "alarms" must be "going off on the Democratic side," as Enten flashed his fingers to signify the alarms.
"It's a huge alarm. It's spiraling. It's ambulance. It's police sirens. It's any alarm you can think of," Enten replied.
